I'm starting to hate this game...

Post » Mon Dec 12, 2011 7:00 am

As ever, today, I decide to launch the game thinking: "Today is the right day to go on with the main quest!" but as soon as I spawn and think "So were was I already?" and open my map to check, I realize that I am surrounded by quest objectives, so I tell myself "This one and then the Main Quest!"... The problem is that there is always "this one last quest" before the main quest! It's horrendous!
I mean... I started today, went to falkreath for a quest thinking that it would be fast, but nooooo! They give me a super-awesome and interesting quest to follow! And the worst is that it doesn't stop there! Because when I left the city, a new quest that interested me started! Seriously Bethesda! What were you thinking?! :(

Edit: I knew I should have added that it is second degree you guys take things too seriously... :tongue:

This is why 120 hours into the game, I just finished the Main Quest. I have not done any other faction quests, just side quests and misc quests and radiant quests and helper quests and town quests and ingredient harvesting and exploring.

I'm just going to assume you're being sarcastic.

The smilies kinda give it away. No one makes smile faces and whatever :P is called when they are serious and/or angry.

I certainly wouldn't use the word "hate" but I've noticed nothing gets done quickly - especially if you don't fast travel.

On the weekend I was given a quest. First thing I had to do was go to this place on the otherside of some mountains. 1 dragon, 1 dwaemer ruins, 4 dungeons, 3 random quests and countless, wolves, frost spiders and wights later I finally got there.

That original quest seemed so simple at first...

Wrong title dude. You're lucky I clicked this, I normally don't check out topics about complaining.
Gotta agree though, the main story is simply not as interesting as the side quests or exploring.

You got it all wrong, the main quest is awesome, but... I never find the the time to do it! So many things to do in this game, it's amazing! I even found it fun to follow a dog for 10 minutes...

Yeah... i understand what the OP talks about.... I hate how in Skyrim i spent 130 hours playing and constantly getting distracted by countless quests, while i could've just got a mission instead to snipe a scripted guy carrying a suitcase then go and brag about it on the internet :(

I'm around 120 hours in and it's almost, no, it IS daunting how much more there is. And amazing. Got to the wall around hour 75, only one or two missions past that at this point.

It's been mentioned, the fact that after you "win" the game, there's no credits. I like the fact that they don't make you sit through a ton of pre-game credits too. Bethesda's logo, then: SKYRIM... sorry, that way off topic. I need to go home...

I got a stray dog.. It survived about ten minutes before it attacked a giant (I was attempting a goat/cat interaction at the time)
