Unless they've made some major engine changes... I feel like it's going to be hard to top games like BG3, Elden Ring, or even Breath of the Wild.
BG3 has the deep story and npcs. Elden Ring has the emphasis on combat. Breath of the Wild freeform exploration.
Yes, I want a game that combines all of those and in the ES series the closest was probably Morrowind (combat being perhaps the most notable lack.)
Oblivion was fantastic too I think. Things started going seriously downhill with Skyrim, at least that is what I think.
Even Skyrim wasn't bad. I put like a thousand hours into it. It's just not exactly what I'd call "ultimate".
Oblivion was good. It's dated at this point and like Morrowind combat is not comparable to say Elden Ring. Oblivion solves the whole open world (as in OpenCities) thing in mods, but Morrowind has it to start with. Which is why I think Morrowind is the closest the series has been to my ideal.
