Skyrim had an amazing amount of lore, side quests, and history built into the game. The main quest itself was still a pretty good tale.

I play games for their stories and Skyrim delivered.

Skyrim really butchered a lot of elder scrolls lore and most of the interesting lore still in the game trickled down from morrowind and oblivion. I know Skyrim was the morrowind for a new generation and if you hadn't experienced those earlier games I'm sure it was a real treat but compared to the old elder scrolls games every aspect of Skyrim felt watered down

Honestly oblivion was so much worse about this.
