The Skyrim Takeover

How many man hours do you think you will put in within the first month of release? Will it take over your social life for a while or will you still have the good old xbox live party chat going on haha?

I'm guessing 100 hours in the first week for me. I really plan on putting my life to the side for about a week or two when I get it.

I will prolly put in 10-20 hours the first month. It won't take over my social life as I am married with 4 kids. It can't take over my social life ;)

Oh...a good 75-100 hours. Every spare second I have- it'll be wasted playing Skyrim.

That could work in your favour as you get to enjoy the freshness of it for longer lol

Possibly 30 hours if we're counting all of November. Maybe more or less. I've yet to finish the excellent Deus Ex: Human Revolution though and between a DLC coming for it, finishing Lonesome Road for New Vegas, and going through my latest Fallout 2 playthrough. Well,

Hard to gauge if I can put in a ton of time into Skyrim. If it gets me sitting no doubt it'll pull hours from my life though.

The first week will be every moment I get. Then, it will have to slow down. Kids, Job, naggin..er um loving wife and a Dog. However, even in that scenario, I got over 300 hours in on Oblivion. Over the course of like 2 years. I expect nothing less from Skyrim.

Well I've got a week off work, so I imagine I'll get a fair few hours in. :P

But my nephew will be born shortly before release, so I'll be spending lots of time fussing over him and helping out with my 1 year old niece no doubt. :) November is going to be a fun month for me!

I don't really have a social life and I don't work either, I'm a wife and mom but I hardly sleep. I'm sure I will put quite a bit into it the first month.

I'll play it whenever I get some spare time, which is rare :(

I'm not doing anything that weekend though, so I'll be playing quite a bit then.

I will play it until I have explored every inch of the map

my job leaves me a LOT of free time and I can sit back this winter and enjoy my Skyrim near the fire place with a glass of wine and some roasted potatoes and onions :D

I have all the time in the world, as much as I want, when I want it so...

piling up during November and December that's for sure.

Well November has Thanksgiving Holiday, so I can easily slip in at least I'm going to say 50hrs. I still have college, but not on Thanksgiving break.
