Tadaaa!! My aquatic friend is down off the mountain ... must be Springtime in New Zealand!
I tend to agree with Pisces, Bethesda moves all around in different directions concerning game content and gameplay. Although the many are Tamrielic in setting, they have differed widely in gameplay. Arena established the entire empire of Tamriel and took place all over the continent, excluding the Summerest Isles which were fabled about. The next, Daggerfall was Arena's successor yet only took place in one province, High Rock. Then came RedGuard - of similar flavor but not part of the succession. Then our beloved Morrowind and Tribunal and Bloodmoon ... Bethesda hit it just right on the head here. Especially with the modding which breathed years of life into a game that truly will probably never die. So now is Oblivion, set in the capitol city of Tamriel...many of us feel it is lacking too much of MW content although it does have asked for features, as Pisces points out. Buuuttt, we are not giving Beth enough time for Oblivion sequels yet ... who knows what content they may incorporate with expansion packs. So, don't count Oblivion down yet - let's wait and see what happens.
PS-look how well Pirates of the Caribbean launched Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow .. or was it the other way around? Anyway, it too is a Bethesda game - now made famous. Imagine if there were a Nerevarine Movie or an Oblivion Movie. Could happen.
