It felt it at the time. I also think this was the same time that 76 was revealed? I remember reading that they were trying to boost their value for the incoming Microsoft buyout by getting some live service games on their docket (76, Youngblood, Redfall). As meh as they've become, the feeling I had playing Oblivion for the first time is a dragon I don't think I'll ever catch again, no matter how much I chase.

Eh, games haven't been as captivating as they were when I was a teen, but it's not the games' fault
