I also feel like Morrowind doesn’t translate over to a Skyrim-style gameplay nearly as well as Oblivion does

Because Oblivion was arguably Skyrim-style gameplay already; not much to translate there.

If ai recall correctly the Skywind team said on stream they have roughly 2-3 times the volume of written and spoken dialogue compared to Oblivion.

I agree though, I think there’s an argument to be made that Morrowind in its entirety is perfect as it is, but that’s why I’m looking forward to it even more than to Skyblivion.
