So which of the two series to you is superior? Personally I'll be saying TES, and not because of Skyrim. I find Fallout in general to be boring, dull, genetic and bland. I can't truly explain it...it's the little quirks like karma that make it really boring to me.

Besides, fantasy is by far my favourite game setting - especially medieval fantasy.

So what about the rest of SW?

I have to go Elder Scrolls. I'm more into the elves and wizards'n sh**. But I didn't really enjoy Skyrim that much, hopefully next gen Bethesda can either A. go back to being a better RPG or B. Do the action adventure combat better and learn a thing or to from the Demons series.

I have to go with Fallout. I loved Skyrim but I didn't get immersed in the world the same way I did with Fallout 3 and New Vegas

I think it really comes down to personal preference but my vote would be with Fallout.That's not to say I don't love The Elder Scrolls but I adore post-apocalyptic and dystopian settings so Fallout is the series for me.

OP, did you ever play Fallout 1, 2 and New Vegas? The only TES game that grabbed me was Morrowind, and my issues with the series lie in the lack of direction and decent writing; which Morrowind made up for in expanse and rich, unique setting. Skyrim is walking along a fine line in this regard, others like Oblivion were just bad and Daggerfall hasn't held up nearly as well compared to this threads comparative title Fallout 1.

I think Fallout is the better series. With TES, the early ones were TOO buggy and had a few too many issues. Fallout 1 and 2 were buggy as hell also, but it didn't interfere with the games to the level it did with TES.

I've also always preferred the atmosphere and stories. Fallout 3 was miles better then Oblivion, and I enjoyed it more then Skyrim. I can't wait for the next Fallout game, but with Skyrim I was more "meh" towards it in comparison.

TES, because Fallout is depressing. Also, Swords are cooler than guns.

TES for me, I like themedievalfantasy world more than the post apocaliptic one.

Morrowind is easily the best game of both series by a long margin, however I have found Fallout 3 and NV to be better than Skyrim. Morrowind>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Oblivion>>>Fallout 3>>>>>>>Fallout NV>>>Skyrim

As much as I loved Morrowind and can respect Daggerfall, Fallout 1 and 2 are far and away better than anything Bethesda has ever made. So Fallout gets an easy vote from me.

I had more fun with Fallout 3 than with Oblivion, and had more fun with Oblivion than I did Skyrim. New Vegas was okay.

What's up with people treating New Vegas like it's somethin special? Felt the exact damn same as Fallout 3. Literally like no difference besides the Hardcore mode.

fallout. with the exception of tactics (it wasn't billed as one) and fallout 3 (lol bethesda) the series is actually an rpg, not action-adventure. i also prefer guns to swords, but that's me. nb: i'm not saying skyrim or oblivion are bad (actually oblivion was bad but whatever)

What is this? Until Bethesda got their hands on Fallout 3, there were no distinct similarities between TES and Fallout.

What's up with people treating New Vegas like it's somethin special? Felt the exact damn same as Fallout 3. Literally like no difference besides the Hardcore mode.

MLBknights58

Are you my long lost twin? I feel the exact same way. It just felt like more of the same, but more Fallout isn't a bad thing. :)

Elder scrolls because the enviroments are better, more colour, more varied enemys and NPC's, larger worlds with more locations to explore and it's swords and sorcery, true fantasy imo.

Combat is far better in vegas and you can sight down the weapon so it is much more fun than FO 3 and it's just got a better more fun storyline than FO 3, it does have a smaller world with less locations though.

I am going with Fallout, but mostly because of Fallout 1 and 2 which I really enjoyed back in the day. But, as Elder Scrolls' universe expands and we can see different countries, cultures and landscapes, I am starting to like it more and more, so I may switch sides at some point in future...

hardcore mode, some slight rpg tweaks, better mob scaling, IMO better narrative/progression, and a better faction system than even Skyrim were enough to make it seem much better.

If obsidian made a TES game like what they did with NV, it would own skyrim as well. (after the patches, lol obsidian and bugs)

Well, it's not just for the gameplay, i think.

The Gameplay in Fallout 3 was fine(except for the Piss-poor aiming, but the game was designed with V.A.T.S in mind and the shooting was tacked on so...), the biggest reason as to why a lot of People didn't liked FO3 and a lot of Old School FO fans didn't liked it(and were warmer towards NV), is because of the writing, the type of Atmosphere and the "Fallout Charm", that strange, Freak-ish charm that The Original games had but FO3 just... Didn't, which is why it ultimately didn't feel like a Fallout game(not to me anyways)

Arcania doesn't change the fact that Gothic 1 and 2 are some of the best RPG's ever made.

I think Skyrim is better than Fallout 3, but mostly because of the improvments made in general. I prefer the Fallout style of choice than Skyrim's style of content any day.
