In my opinion if Skyrkim were to allow players a friend to join and play with them. Not 3 or 4 just one friend to help you get past missions and the story line. Hopefully it would count to their singleplayer as well. Like if they passed a mission with a friwn it went to their singleplayer or if they find a weapon on their friends game they can as well use it on their singleplayer. I don't know if thiws idea is any good just something me and my friend thought of. I know this is a little late but I could wait a month or two later for something as great as playing with one friend on an amazing game.

not going to happen in skyrim, but a lot of people agree with you. I'm not one of them
