The Elder Scrolls: Ranking Every Game From Worst To Best

It often feels like Oblivion is one of the most overlooked games in Bethesda's library. Because of how great the next game in the series was, Oblivion simply doesn't get the respect it deserves.

Even several years later, one of Oblivion's biggest strengths has to be its sense of charm. Whether it be intentional or not, the bright colours, goofy character models and almost-slapstick combat mechanics make it feel almost like a parody of previous titles.

There simply isn't a game in the series like Oblivion, and that's what makes it so special.

Unfortunately for Oblivion, it doesn't quite compare to it's successor or its predecessor, mostly because of its fairly uninteresting world and a story that doesn't quite engage like it seems to want to. Combine that with a pretty grindy combat system and you have an Elder Scrolls game that many people seem to want to overlook.

This would be a big mistake. Oblivion can be one of the most fun experiences in the series especially with some of it's outstanding questlines. Just ignore the character models.
