Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

You mean more memorable than nearly getting executed and having to escape a dragon attack?
Yeah, not really. And I've played both.
Even this should tell you enough:
I think people just give Skyrim a lot more hate because it's been the last in the series for so, so long.
Oblivion was probably the #2 most memorable intro/tutorial of its' rough time period to me. #1 is stealing a bike in an alleyway.
Yeah I think you're pretty much right about the hate. Plus, if Bethesda used to be better then that gives us excuse now to keep bringing up how mad we are about their current state.
I never finished Oblivion but it was because I was not playing many games then. Skyrim, I did finish and played many hours, because it literally pulled me out of being bored with games for years. The game was infuckingcredible regardless of the hate directed at it.
I also loved Morrowind. I can't remember if many people hate that one or not, but it's Bethesda, so probably.
I think most people tend to regard Morrowind as peak Bethesda/Elder Scrolls. At least I do.
