This isn't necessarily true. While many people who didn't enjoy Oblivion found enjoyment in Skyrim, there are plenty of hardcore Oblivion fans (i.e. me) who love Skyrim, too. Simply because you didn't like the fourth main installment to the series does
not mean you'll instantly fall in love with the fifth. I just don't want the OP to walk into the game just because he didn't like the previous one.
What this really comes down to is genre choice; what kind of games you're into, how much time you have, etc.
