The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has 'hundreds of hours' of stuff to do

XMNR: The Elder Scrolls games are known for providing gamers untold numbers of hours worth of questing to do. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will be no different as Bethesda's Pete Hines let loose in an interview at Gamescom this past week with how long the main quest in the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC RPG will take along with all the side quests.

The day that what remained of my social life will be destroyed.

This is the day that i see a lame Youtube comment on N4G.

No, a lame Youtube comment would have been if someone had replied to dark-hollow by saying "2 people lost their social life long ago."

Ill just spend tons of hours exploring the world, then start quests. When Oblivion came out, I just walked around the world looking at everything, this looks more amazing than that was cannot wait

DUH.

I am not buying your propaganda examiner.com. Next you are going to tell me that the Earth is round. You aren't going to fool me.

My favourite quote for this game was on Gamespot's Gamescom demo playthrough.

"Skyrim is less about running from point A to point B than it is about setting off from point A and getting so hopelessly distracted by all the things you find along the way that you've begun to wonder what's so great about point B anyway."

I can't wait for this game.

That's what I like to hear

[Stealth2k]

oblivion claimed that too

[KillerPwned]

When I played Oblivion I put around 400 hrs till I completed the entire game with all DLC.

I`m getting this game so i will probably put a lot of time into it to.

Games like this have never appealed to me because my own life is filled with hundreds of hours of stuff to do.

[byeGollum]

lmao lol.. thanks for the laugh.. games like this overwhelm you huh? best stay away lol. I feel you tho lol

[lMHl]

this is a great artical for someone who has been living under a rock for the past 2 months

[ufo8mycat]

Obviously the number of hours is exaggerated.

They claimed that Oblivion was 120hrs, but to do everything (including DLC) it takes around 80hrs.

I'll expect Skyrim to be about 100hrs.

[Rettom]

To do everything Bethesda intended you to do on this game will take OVER 100 hours ;)

[lionelglitchy]

apparantly new vegas was 350+ hours lol

[CommanderWTF]

Game of the Year 2011. No other game can compete with this.

[Rettom]

Old news, moving on...
