Walking away from Skyrim is a sin, play more. (I say that, but I still need to get into Morrowind, I've tried a couple of times now, but I've never stuck with it more than about 3 hours).

Not much of an RTS fan myself, but I've found games like Civ fun for the very reason that you don't have to manage everything in a time span, that game is dangerous to your free time though, very addicting. As someone who spent most of my life playing MMOs from 13 to about 16, may I recommend something other than Runescape, there's not that much depth to that game, and it's not a very good indication of the genre.

For everything else, I'd advise everyone to play more indie games, they tend to be lighter on the system requirements, lighter on the cost requirements, and a good exploration ground for new styles of gaming. Bastion, an Indie was probably the best game that I played last year. There's lots of cool free indie games as well, worth exploring.
