  • 75 hours is approximately the amount of time i spent before , dare i say, "meh" feelings set in
  • I've put 561 hours into it...
  • I play on xbox, and haven't spent that much time in it I don't think. I have three characters (Mage, Warrior, Thief) who are level 32, 17, and 15 respectively.

  • Um, 228 hours currently, if I didn't have to work, and didn't have a huge backlog of other games that I'm trying to slog through, I'm sure I would have several times that many hours...

  • 180 hours on my main character and 3 others with 20-40 hours.

  • I've put in about 117 hours and this is just my first playthrough.

  • PS3 Plat was 80hrs; Xbox 1000 was 46hrs. Time well spent!
  • 180 hours at the moment, but as soon as the next patch comes along it will be a lot more. It is amazing that you can spend so many hours doing something and not even realise.

  • I believe my last save was around 86 hours give or take an hour. This sounds about right considering the fact that they're PC stats/averages. I wonder what the overall average is. I'd guess much less than this.
  • I spent about 223 hours into the game.

  • Darn they got me. 73 hours........ so far ;)

  • I guess I am right in there with the norm, I am at 72 hours.

  • I had about 110-120 hours after the first month and it was probably only that low because someone else was playing too. I haven't really played since then because I wanted to get to other games, including The Old Republic.
  • I've got more than twice that in one game alone(not sure about the specific number), and two other games that are around 40 and 35 hours respectively.

  • 50 and counting, but I just got it two weeks ago

  • HUNDREDS!!
  • is that it? really?

  • I put about 200hr in Skyrim
  • Heh too many to count. Enough hours to create a lvl 81 assassin, lvl 70 archer, and lvl 56 warrior/mage. And I only used the bookshelf glitch on the assassin!
  • There's not even 75 hours worth of decent content.
