    Maybe it’s because 3 was the first one I played, but 4 seemed much more shallow.

    Worse mini games and you show up on an organisations doorstep and 10 mins later you’re running the place.

      That’s every bethesda game. “Hey guy who did 7 mages guild fetch quests, congratulations you’re the new arch mage. Now do some more fetch quests.”

        You’re not wrong, but F4 felt particularly unearned.

        Maybe I was spoiled by things like The Witcher.

      the writing isn’t that much better in 3, the gameplay loop in 4 is vastly improved over 3, however.
