Which do you prefer Oblivion or Skyrim?

Morrowind , a much better RPG for me .
However from the action and exploration point of view , Skyrim is an improvement , in term of visuals too , but that is to be expected nearly 10 years later ..
Oblivion is comparable to Skyrim , although it had more features , was less streamlined (longer guilds , deeper magic for instance , larger cities ) , but overall Skyrim probably edges it because the dungeons are more unique , world better laid out , art design is better , the music is also better IMO and that counts a lot when you spend dozens of hours in it , also the crafting system offers more possibilities (with mods )
I hope the next TES will keep what makes Skyrim good (basically the action/adventure part ) , but will come back to its roots by deepening the RPG experience by adding a lot more items/objects , much longer and deeper guild quest as well as a more complex character development system and NPC interaction
