Only if it got OB or Sky's combat system instead of Dice Rolls. That 1 flaw is why i HATE MW

This.

When my Nerevarine is rocking a 100 in Sneak and a 90+ in Blade weapons, and I miss on a Sneak attack... rage-stroke...

Would rather see Morrowind re-done than Oblivion. Oblivion's graphics are still a high level compared to other games. If what majority of people say on these boards is true, that Morrowind has the best content, I would like a graphical update to encourage me to actually try it.
If you would be willing to wait for and install a mod like that (which is no simple task in itself), then maybe you would be better off buying Morrowind and enhancing it with Morrowind Graphics Extender. That way you can have 100% of Morrowind's content with no waiting involved, all of the mods that were made for it, and with no compromises or hack jobs to make it fit into Skyrim.

I wouldn't say that Morrowind has 'the best content'. It's very different from Skyrim and has its own strengths and faults.

It was fantastic though, I think the fondness for it stems from how far removed from classical fantasy it was. The Telvanni strongholds, house redorans crab shell houses, netches drifting across the landscape, the bizarre wildlife like kwama...

It's almost (almost) a shame to return to the tolkienesque styles after that. I hold high hopes for summerset isle though... :D

I don't know why everybody's so hostile towards OB. I hated the main quest, I hated the graphics (couldn't see a damn thing with a the bloom effects), I hated the character models but I really enjoyed Shivering Isles, some of the guild quest lines and the typical TES sandbox freedom. I sunk many hours into the game and I'm sure many people here did too, you can't despise a game fully if you spent that much time with it like I did. I hated Morrowind probabaly more, just because I despise the art design and hate Dunmer culture, but I liked Bloodmoon like nothing else during that time.

But I have to say since I played Skyrim, I learned to accept MW's art style more. Both games have a rather "realistic" look, while OB looked like a fairy tale with too much bloom. And appart from SI I can't think of anything I really would want to play again from the OB content now that Skyrim has arrived and the first DLC will come sometime in September to PC (I hope).

Yeah, I guess I'm just too lazy to do all that. Chances are I wont ever play MW which is a shame, but I'm too much of a graphics [censored] to bother going through all that effort and since I played OB and Skyrim before it I don't think I'd really enjoy it anyway. I had no idea that MGE even got the graphics up to par with Oblivion, let alone Skyrim.

IMO, the levelling system of Oblivion is what broke the game for me. If I didn't do the Imp glitch, I couldn't really have an edge on my enemies. If they updated the levelling system and graphics, I would probably enjoy it 100x more.
