Microsoft has bought Zenimax/Bethesda

No.

Saying Oblivion of all fucking things is better than 99% of stuff that come out recently is such an ignorant, flat out objectively wrong statement. Saying bullshit and then hiding behind "it's just my opinion" needs to die. An opinion has a limit.
The only 'limit' on an opinion is when somebody gives up their opinion. I myself disagree with both of your argument's and personally despise almost every 'Elder Scrolls' game in existence, but I am not forcing you to agree with me, nor will I change my opinion strictly for your or anybody else's benefit.

In the end it's Morgan's opinion on his/her's experiences with the series and demanding that he personally prefer your take on them because they are in the majority opinion is ironically against what this site argues primarily to begin with and presumptuous.

You all need to wake up and smell the reality. Games are shit this gen.
I wouldn't give such a flat statement yet, the next gen is just starting, and we won't be able to fully judge it for a few years. And as for the one that just ended? It's lackluster, but their are a few diamonds in the rough here and their. Although I will say it was a disappointment RPG wise.

No. Opinions have to be based on same form of objectivty based on evidence presented. You can't just claim a game sucks without showing why. So saying a game is better than 99% of games released recently without any evidence is utter bullshit, specially because i have played several of them and they are far better made than Oblivion.

People keep mixing up opinions with subjectivity. People can like whatever they want, but they have to be aware of whatever problems those things might have. I don't give a shit if people like things, i take issue when people claim something is bad for no reason, or something horrendous is somehow better than something else when it's clearly not.

And if everything is subjective after all, i guess Ride to Hell Retribution, Sonic 06, Superman 64, Big Rigs and several other games that are considered bad aren't objectively bad. Oh wait, they are. Without objectivity on how things are put together, things don't get better because systems don't improve, game design doesn't improve. Thinking everything is subjective is absolutely ridiculous and it's only used by people that don't like the thing they like might actually be bad.
 
Lol You are so fucking triggered over Oblivion. What game is objectively better than Oblivion this gen and your reasons as to why?
 
He is actually right though. It's like you fucking kids forget where you are.

Explanation: To attempt to put on a pedestal Oblivion shows you are a kid with shitty taste in games, or perhaps a better way to put it is to say you have not been alive long enough to play the good ones.

What's the point of voicing a position on anything if you can't shit on other people's opinions and call them retarded for it. Disagreement is a pretty major point of conversation.
 
Morgan's opinion on good games is like Morgan's opinion on what the best sexual position is.

That's true, but once it's clear a person reveals that their mind won't be changed on an issue, arguing back and forth 'yes' and 'no' becomes childish and meaningless really fast.

Norzan had made his point and I was convinced of his argument as the better over Morgan_'s but once he lowered himself into the 'yes/no' portion of his argument rather than letting his case stand on it's own I couldn't take it as seriously.
 
Ya'll just mad that Bethesda rescued Fallout from pseudo intellectual irrelevancy and made it the empire it is today.
The best sex positions are missionary, reverse cowgirl and whatever the one is where you lay on your back and the dude is going from behind.

Gotta love these dismissals when their arguments get thrown into the shitter. Not even an attempt to refute anything i said.
 
From what you're saying I think your favorite sex position is getting skull fucked.

Shut the fuck up

I will name a few games (I will only name games that are from 2015 to now), I can't really post why they are better at the moment since I don't have much time for a wall of text. I will do it later if I don't forget:
  • Mount and Blade Bannerlord
  • Kingdom Come Deliverance
  • Disco Elysium
  • ATOM RPG
  • The Age of Decadence
  • Expeditions: Viking
  • Wasteland 3
  • Wasteland 2: Director's Cut
  • Shadowrun: Hong Kong - Extended Edition
  • The Witcher 3
  • Pillars of Eternity
  • Pillars of Eternity 2
  • Divinity Original Sin 2
  • Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition
  • Pathfinder: Kingmaker
  • Kenshi
  • Grim Dawn
  • Himeko Sutori
  • Undertale
  • Tyranny
  • Pyre
  • Six Ages: Ride Like the Wind
  • The Banner Saga 2
  • Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass
  • Cat Quest
  • Yakuza 0
  • Persona 4 Golden
  • Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age
  • Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
  • Ni no Kuni Wrath of the White Witch Remastered
  • The Legend of Heroes series
I included a lot of different RPG genres in this list (and even some that aren't really that much RPG), so it should have something for everyone. There are more games, but I ran out of time.

No different from the same one liner you used to refute mine, but alright I will play your game.
No. Opinions have to be based on same form of objectivty based on evidence presented.
Only if the person is arguing in a maner that can be reasoned with or is open to changing their mind on the issue in the first place. And besides even that, I have literally seen you present no evidence yourself to back up your argument other than statement's made using guess what? Your opinion.
So saying a game is better than 99% of games released recently without any evidence is utter bullshit.
Again, while I agree Morgan shouldn't throw such fragrant statement's without her reasoning again it boils down to her believing what she says to be true and nothing you say will change that belief in the fact which you should have been able to tell when your argument started to devolve like it did.

specially because i have played several of them and they are far better made than Oblivion.
That's just hypocrisy based on your previous statement.
No. Opinions have to be based on same form of objectivty based on evidence presented.
You aren't offering any examples here expecting us to take your word and opinion over anybody else's and doing the same thing you are criticizing Morgan_ for ironically.
People keep mixing up opinions with subjectivity. People can like whatever they want, but they have to be aware of whatever problems those things might have.
I agree.
I don't give a shit if people like things, i take issue when people claim something is bad for no reason, or something horrendous is somehow better than something else when it's clearly not.
I also slightly agree, but keep in mind to hate or even dislike something you don't always need a clear reason, I love Fallout and when I tried Skyrim I hated it, no reasons given or thought as to why that is. I don't feel I have to explain myself in that regard, because that's my opinion on Skyrim their isn't always a clear cut reason for why someone dislikes or even hates something.
And if everything is subjective after all, i guess Ride to Hell Retribution, Sonic 06, Superman 64, Big Rigs and several other games that are considered bad aren't objectively bad. Oh wait, they are.
They are 'bad' but keep in mind something's have sliver lining's to list two examples out of what you gave, Big Wheels is one of those games that's so horrendously bad it's good curiosity and Sonic 06 despite in my opinion being rubbish all the way around at least has a great Shadow's Story (And only his story, I am not talking about gameplay here.)

My point is, you can find something good in something bad, and unlike the games you just listed and even though I haven't played it myself a quick look via internet search has told me that Oblivion is in no way universally lampooned or considered a garbage game meaning that all your statement's are made primarily of your opinion.
Without objectivity on how things are put together, things don't get better because systems don't improve, game design doesn't improve.
I agree criticism is necessary for improvement, I am only disagreeing with your methods of debating here.
Thinking everything is subjective is absolutely ridiculous and it's only used by people that don't like the thing they like might actually be bad.
Again I agree, the problem is that everything you have been stating so far has been mostly subjective with no evidence to support them, you say Oblivion is trash? By what consensus?

Look at the bellow
Everyone likes retarded, dumb shit while growing up. Doesn't mean that stuff isn't any less bad because you had fun with it as a kid.

And Oblivion was my first Elder Scrolls game.
No, it isn't. If anything, Oblivion is pretty much the prime example of a dumbed down, RPG-lite made for the dumb masses. And Bethesda themselves said as such when they said they wanted the game to appeal to everyone.
You mean a step down from Morrowind, which certainly to shit it is. Such a sharp drop in quality, and Morrowind is flawed.
These above statement's are backed by no evidence other than your 'opinion' on the subject not any sort of evidence which again you earlier stated should be based on evidence presented.
80% of the quests in Oblivion are uninspired fetch or kill quest garbage, and the ones that aren't like that aren't any better or more memorable than Morrowind's.
The highlighted is objective as it's true, the later is personal preference and opinion.

No, it doesn't. Oblivion doesn't have the cool spells Morrowind has and the attacks based on the direction of the mouse (those shitty power moves from Oblivion aren't the same thing), nowhere near the same amount of weapons and different damage types for weapons like piercing. Oblivion's gameplay is bottom of the barrel garbage, just a button masher where two stones grind on each other until one wins.

Oblivion's combat has all the problems of Morrowind's combat without any of the good stuff the latter has. They took the wrong lessons from Morrowind's combat failings.
These are actually good point's.

In summary you have a few good point's but a lot of what you stated besides the last bit is subjective and based off pure personal opinion rather than fact as you are passing it off as.
