A passionate exploration of Skyrim’s world, how it draws players in and keeps them hooked.
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
The developers of Lordbound increased the scope as they became more familiar with the Creation Kit and got inspired by the original Skyrim.

I've got to say without mods I wouldn't still be playing myself. I've got one which makes you a random character which can live their life as someone other than the Dovahkiin which really adds so much more depth to the game. I love how every time I feel that it's getting static I can add in new elements. I fancy battle? Warzones mods for battles everywhere. Stealth? Sneak and warangel mods for Thief like elements.
It's a beautiful game too with the right mods. The ENB series just allow you to get you so immersed. Cannot wait for my oculus rift. That's really going to add to it.
I'll likely dive back in with a ton of Steam workshop mods here soon, it'll be like a completely different game!
Why I stopped playing Skyrim after 250+ hours. Timed DLC which turned into broken DLC that took way to long to release. So going forward I will no longer pre-order their games and just wait the extra year and pick-up the GOTY edition that will have everything on the disc the way it's supposed to be.
Coz you are not playing it on console..try playing it on ps3 after one hour you stop FOREVER! Lolz
I played it for 2 months upon it's release beat it and didn't play again even though I loved the game. However That's going to change when the Legendary edition is released.
