My experience with Morrowind was only ever a toe in the water. I literally played a couple of hours, most of that was walking. Oblivion made considerable improvements, but even in my limited experience I felt it lacked a fair bit in terms of a unique setting (namely dungeons and a sense of culture) compared to Morrowind. I really enjoyed Oblivion, but I hope they make a lot of improvements that don't invovle making it more accessable.
Some important considerations for me is a less accessable fast travel system (perhaps limited only between towns and cities, or restricted to owning a horse or something), better/more voice acting, and an actual interesting story. Oblivion was so boring, and it was not helped by the cloned Oblivion gates/dungeouns/forts/ruins/caves that all looked the exact same and had nothing interesting which was probably due to a poor levelling system. What's the point in levelling up if everything levels with you. One of the best things in RPG's is coming across a dungeon or cave that has too powerful enemies, then coming back later on to clear it put and see what good loot it has, OR going back to other places where you now feel stronger.
So yep, that's what it needs. Looking forward to this, but I hope it's made some improvements.
