Well, in that case you never played Elite space games  ;)
well techically yes yer right, as Skyrim quests are waaaay more involced as best Elite had was pretty simple, but was 1st to have random generated quests, now they're much better of course plus the main ones are very well done

however for a better STORY, but it's the entire game, is Deus Ex, Human Revolution. So it's kind of like more tightly better woven, but much more limited versus huge sprawling "explorathon with quests" that is Skyrim. "Blade Runner" versus "lord of the RIngs" as it were. Each is outstanding but different

Elder Scrolls games, like Fallout games and the "X Beyond the Frontier" and "elite" games are "sandbox" games, vast, and most of the fun's about exporing, i try and do as much wlaking between quest areas in Skyrim as I can, as you get tons of random encounter,s beautiful visuals etc :)
looking forward to the next "X" game http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Rebirth

As said in previosu thread, IMHO, games are vaslty superior now to Hollywood, in so many ways. Fed up with the mostly "processed bland cheese" of Hollywood now, "pretty boys and girls with no character, plots with more holes than a collander" etc, hehe
"Avatar" was gorgeous but was an absolute disgrace for a plot for example

Deus Ex Human Revoultion is incredibly subversive and wouldn't be comprehended or allowed by most of Hollywood now
"If you want to make enemies, try to change something!" was it's tagline and part of it's theme, absolute brilliance
Once, film led with asking questions, now, it's mostly formulaic/too smooth dross.
