I'm just here to say, this game is outstanding. I bought it a week ago and I've already logged over 40 hours playtime. It's EXTREMELY easy to lose track of time when you're engulfed in this world.
I've personally never been more addicted to a game. Sadly, this is the first TES game I've ever played. I think after completing(if it's even possible to complete all the quests)this game, I might go buy all the
others and see how good they are. The only bad thing is the few buggy quests, NPCs and whatnot, but that's expected with a newly dropped game. Honestly, thank you Bethesda. I'm now a huge supporter of
your company.

as this is your first tes game hold on to that feeling and run with that feeling the same way alot of people felt first playing morrowind and the same way alot of people felt first playing oblivion dont worry about the negatives not even the positives....leave these forums and go play skyrim enjoy the hell out of it becuase being heres going to make you feel like your a bit inferior for liking it .......that said leave just becuase its a damn battlefield right now

Haha, don't have to tell me twice. Off to play now, infact.

Great post OP. Same way I felt when I got Oblivion, my first TES, and how I largely feel for Skyrim. No one does open world like Bethesda.

no problem...i just cant stand the lack of respect people are having for one another at this point (it was bad when ob came out....but this?!.....this is worse....damn hype...damn glitches.....[censored])

glad you enjoy it just dont burn out

have fun!!!

why double post why WHY [censored]

Good to hear you are enjoying the game and yes it is very easy to lose track of time while playing it
Even after 140 hours, I still love playing it.

It's the little surprises around every hill and rock that keep me playing. Skyrim is a beautiful world to explore.

Totally agree 100%. Two hours pass by like nothing. Engulfed is an understatement. I have played total 70 some hours on 3 characters, and I still stop and stare for minutes at a time. Beautiful, engrossing, amazing, brilliant game.
