Skyrim Considerably Better Than Its Predecessors?

[JamieD]

I have played both Morrowind and Oblivion a long time ago and couldn't really get into them. Only really remember being bored by them.

But I have always been intrigued by Skyrim because of its "legendary" RPG status.

My friend has also been recommending I try it.

Could I possibly love Skyrim even if I have not enjoyed its predecessors?

The gameplay is very, very similar to it's predecessors. The Elder Scrolls exists in a very large world with a ton of lore that is shared between games. It it necessary to like the past games? No. Reccomended? Absolutely.

Why did those games bore you?

If it was the gameplay, Skyrim is not going to be fun for you. If it was the content (dragons, magic, swords, etc) then again, Skyrim will be boring.

What games do you like?
