True, Vvardenfell was a really interesting setting because of how alien it is, but skyrim added a lot of interesting lore through books and such. Like the argonian counter-invasion of oblivion after they were physically altered by their hist-trees, forcing the immortal forces of dagon to close their own portals.
I don't think the in-game history books count very much at all. That's the flattest, laziest world building possible. They're fine, sure, but having good "told but never shown" history is worth the least marks by a long shot.
