Skyrim is the best game I've ever played, the only reason I bought a console was to play it. I have been trying to play Oblivion because I hear nothing but praise for it but I have a hard time adjusting to the graphics that pale in comparison to Skyrim. As for my character he is a Nord with a shaved head and a beard, nothing spectacular underneath the Daedric armor
I completed the main quest line and I do the other quests sometimes but most of the time I get lost exploring the vast world and immersing myself in the lore that is scattered throughout the game as books.

Should of bought a pc instead! MODS!!! theres plenty of mods that overhaul oblivion amazingly!! So no need to worry about outdated graphics, just mod it up!! Same goes for Morrowind
Anyways I HAVE FINALLY BEGUN PLAYING SKYRIM AGAIN!! slowly building skyrim into my own lil world. Very happy with my character for once. I always end up creating a character that I end up regretting cause I overlook a feature or something, like aww I forgot to add this or that but not this time! I made a wood elf mastering the archery class first naturally. I'm at level 21 and just turned the difficulty up to master since its a bit too easy playing through with a bow at the lower difficulties. Its still tough though, like if you get hit with a power blow by a two handed weapon its instant death

I thought about going the PC route but didn't have the money, so I just bought a console that I found for cheap. I'm happy with it

Not all of us want to mod. Great you can afford an awesome computer. Good for you. the console version I will always love.

the one thing I hated about oblivion on my 360 was when you are riding your horse it gets so load-laggy. Like constantly pegging the disc drive or something every 15 feet it feels like.

There's something about these Elder Scrolls engines that makes them a bit dodgy in that they skip frames and like has been said every 15ft or something they'll seem to lag for a moment.
I think it has something to do with buffering. If you tweak the PC .ini files you can probably fix it.

Misread a news headline about the weather. Thought it said storms cloaks in the northeast but it actually said storm coats northeast 
Ahh too much skyrim

I love Skyrim! I run about 100 mods and I have so much fun with it. I've been participating in The Elder Scrolls Online Beta too. Got in on two 3 day sessions. So much fun! Mods aren't everything, but they really improve the overall experience IMO. Loved the console version of Skyrim just as much though.
Here is a couple screenshots of my modded game:

You might not have the best eye for engines and their quality, which is a good thing otherwise you're an uber nerd.
IMO those modded graphics are superb, far better than vanilla...

Oh wow. Not my cup of tea.
I've got Skyrim modded up the wazoo...but not to look all cartoony like that. Mine is way grittier and more realistic. Most of my mods are to make it more immersive. Really roleplaying through a character, very little to no fast travelling, with realistic needs and diseases, plus the mod that makes you get wet and cold and what have you.
Pretty much followed this guy's advice through the whole series, but tweaked a few things and added a couple here and there:
^Really good place to start if you're looking for info on modding...just...be ready. This guy is verbose.

I'm sure someone has made a mod of Oblivion but in the Skyrim engine... If you guys know of anything like this let me know because that would be really cool. I loved the gameplay improvement of Skyrim like using a sword in one hand and spells in another but Oblivion was 10 times the game Skyrim was...

YES SARA!! CHECK THIS OUT!!! Gotta disagree with ya, as much as I love the daedric lore in oblivion. The Dragons win me over in Skyrim plus I hated closing those oblivion gates

Nope! you can install the mods with your current character.
