any game redguard,arena etc.
if there has been any topic on this let me know

technically tes general.

How dare you! There is no *worst*! They're all good!

Nah, jk...Probably one of the Mobile ones. Haven't played them but they probably stink, by nature of being...mobile...

Skyrim. Because no Acrobatics and no pants.

I am with Doros, the lack of pants in Skyrim is a roleplay killer imho. It is also the game with the most boring graphics.

i actually think redgaurd was the worst one

Well, there are ragged trousers, but that makes you have no shirt

Arena, hands down. Preliminary work never ages well.

Meh. The mobile games are probably the worst, because they're the most different from the main series in terms of gameplay.

in terms of complexity morrowind in terms of bugginess oblivion when it comes to lack of content skyrim takes the cake

Skyrim. Worst release ever, most boring gameplay, story and content.

Not counting the mobile games, which of course suck, I'd say Arena. I still love to play around with my character every once in a while, but like Mars said, it really didn't age well.

All your faces is the worst ES game ever.

They all rock.

Plz 2 b quiet nao, Spiney.

I don't care much for Arena or Oblivion, Arena because it's ancient, and Oblivion because...well, it's not Morrowind and it's not Skyrim, so...

What content does everyone see in Oblivion, long chains of fetch quest disguised as actual dialogue. At least Skyrim doesn't lie to me that it is a fetch quest. It's not Oblivion, sure. But if I want to play Oblivion, or Morrowind for that matter, I wouldn't have paid $60 again. I want something new after five years of hiatus.

Skyrim? Bah, people will be praising it when TES VI comes out. No, while I wanted to play it. Once I saw Battlespire, it dropped a whole lot in my eyes. Neat concept, great from a lore standpoint...Actual execution and performance on older, and even newer modern machines...Shameful.

You wanted to play what?

I find all the TES games I've played have the same weak point in that they can be quite dull at times as they lack a focused story, that being said I do like the fact that you can just wander at your own pace and do what you want to do but sometimes I would like to see a solid single story arc, may be they could make it an optional thing story on or off so your wandering won't effect the story.

Of the three that matter, Morrowind just beats out Skyrim for worst. Visceral combat and the rudiments of a crafting system do more for me than the supposed brilliant wonky deep alien lore, man, Morrowind had. Vivec on a PCP-induced cosmic mind-journey, or whatever.

Pfft, beheading and such was just a gimmick derived from other games.

Morrowind was unique in its setting which is more that can be said for Generic-white-and-grey-mountains-Skyrim.

I assume someone has a patent on beheading in games? They're just adding to the experience. Skyrim, in my opinion, is beautiful, and while not as flashy or distinct as Oblivion or especially Morrowind, Skyrim does a great job of making you feel immersed in the rugged world around you. If I was to classify all three games based on their settings, it would go like this:

Morrowind: Mysterious

Oblivion: Fantastical

Skyrim: Rugged

I'd probably say Skyrim was the worst.

There's a lot of things about it that seriously bugged me, and I never got into it like I did with Morrowind & Oblivion.

This. But it was better than Arena.

I don't know, I mean, I love them all so much, and I love Skyrim. They're all fantastic games, so I have trouble picking a "worst" one. I'm still trying to remember back when I first started playing Oblivion, if I was as hooked as I was with Skyrim. My love for Skyrim wasn't immediate like it was with Oblivion, but eventually it came, after around what is now a solid 250 hours of play and running.
