Best Games of Last-Gen!

Previous games? Somewhat. On the scale of Morrowind? No. Oblivion is different as well. Everything is clearly pointed out to you. For example, in Morrowind one of the early missions in the main quest requests that you head to a Dwemer ruin and retrieve a specific Dwemer artifact from it. You're given a general direction in which to go to find this ruin, then once inside, you need to search the entirety of it to find something that looks like a tiny box, no bigger than a fist. You have no indication of what the item looks like, or where in the ruins it might be found.

Oblivion on the other hand, has an objective arrow that leads you to every single thing you need to find. It's much more n00b friendly, and has a much more pick-up and play mentality to it.
