morrowind. so god damn good. probably the most amount of time i've EVER put into a single player game. i liked the sense of wonder you got wandering into unique crypts/daedric shrines that had epic artifacts inside of them. morrowind had the best (though, shortest) soundtrack. let's not forget the epic story, the fact that you had to convince all the tribes that hated outlanders to accept you as nerevarine... too bad they didn't have cinematics and voice acting, they should really remake TES3

tribunal and bloodmoon were such fucking good expansions also (the scale of the dungeons in tribunal were breathe taking at the time!)
skyrim was awesome. music = on point. it lacked a very strong point morrowind had; random unique dungeons with artifacts waiting at the end. overall i really enjoyed it, i didn't play it a second time though.
oblivion was pure trash, some of the quests were amazing (thieves guild), but the repetitive oblivion gates and no incentive to explore ( there was NOTHING unique in any of the ayleid ruins unless a quest sent you there!) REALLY brought it down for me. also the monster leveling really pissed me off, you never really felt "godly" even after acquiring a good amount of sweet loot. not to mention the soundtrack was EXTREMELY forgettable. i wasn't impressed by shivering isles either.
it's too much of a pain to run the older elderscrolls
imo dragons and oblivion gates are pretty same: both are just random encounters and both are just as boring. at first i killed every dragon and ran through every oblivion gate, but after a while i just started ignoring them, because they were so boring.
neither oblivion or skyrim had anything special to find in the wilderness.
those rare side quests they had, were more interesting in oblivion, like Chillrend quest and "Sins of the Father" quest
the leveling system on skyrim was horribad. even on master it was too easy (without any glitch using etc). tho both of them failed at the leveling system with animals, they were much stronger than marauders or bandits with glass/daedric items and in skyrim dragons were much easier than bears
also, i liked Shivering Isles a lot. it was fairly long, quite large area, nice ammount of quests and locations
and btw, i agree with morrowind ^^
