Depends on the day, sometimes 0 hours, sometimes nearly all day, and sometimes inbetween.
You mentioned in response to someone else there was a reason why you dedicate your entire day almost to Skyrim alone, on the xbox360 even. Can I ask what you are suffering from? I cannot imagine playing this game extensively any more.
I'll say it like this:
If I'm not playing SRIV. If I'm not working on my mod. I am playing Skyrim, All freaking day long.
I couldn't handle long sessions. For me, it's usually 40 minutes to an hour at the most, and not every day.
I do wonder how you are able to fit in 12 hours a day, so are you unemployed, etc?
Duly noted, have a good day then. Sorry for the assumption/misinformation.
My week: monday to friday job: 51hours, delivering sofas saturday: 4 hours, gig at local Irish club: saturday, left at 6 pm, got back 2 am. All other time: spent with kids. Up monday: 4.30 am. On forum, any spare second.
Long Skyrim session: I wish, that's not a problem, that's a luxury. Tomorrow, work 6 am to 5 pm, then mod of the week: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=87353590.
[And Mr PK, I had a terrible time in my life once. I got over it by playing Oblivion every spare second. I understand. #not alone.]
Not possible during the week due to having a full time job plus whatever else is going on with my friends. Occasionally on the weekend I'll be able to get in a super long session(which is like 3-4 hours for me)
Hopefully things will change for the better, if that's what you desire at least. We'll be here to keep you entertained and company. Who else can create all those vanilla women who look oh-so-majestic? ;]
I never did have long/marathon sessions, even back in November, 2011. And the splendor hasn't faded for me.
A nice quiet-ish stroll up to Helgen, amongst other things. It works for me, anyway.
Duly noted.
Because I had the flu I was playing all day long xD.
But now that I'm better it's back to 4/3 hour sessions though, Sometimes, I lose track of time while playing O_o.
