Fallout 3 Originally Released in 2008 and it was ‘game breaking’ if you’d pardon the pun. It more closely resembles that though I suppose you could compare it to Oblivion (2006) or Morrowind (2002) though id argue both were very complex comparatively.

Definitely. Shown by all the mechanics that have somehow digressed: stealth, meaningful random encounters, better bounty systems, innovative combat (e.g., VATS), etc.
