Am 55 hours i, have done the main quest and only about 1/3 or 1/2 of way through other missions. By this point in fallout 3 id done almost all the missions and was on the DLC, the game is frickin massive.

Indeed, I'm 200+ hours in Marb and still not repeated a quest as well as still discovering loads of new locations. Yeah, the game is fucking massive.

I did everything in 135 hours. You people are so very slow.
If in doubt, put the kettle on.

I'm only 45ish hours in, and all I can say is: Go Stormcloaks

The stormcloaks were horrible, borderline racist bastards.

So are the Empire? And the Tholmar? In fact, I think 90% of all of Tamriel is racist.

You join the Stormcloaks cause they have the cooler name and being the underdog is always better.

Nahh, I went stormcloaks but regretted it quickly. They kept saying Skyrim for the Nords and stuff which kinda creeped me out.

I was a cat, we're not into the whole race thing, preferring instead to lick our own genetalia. We ended up supporting the stormcloaks by accident after an "incident"

The Elves are the worst ones out there as they also 'preach' religious intolerance as well, at least with the Stormcloaks you know that what you're getting into. Besides the Empire are just a bunch of pansies. True story that.

I am having a big push on getting through some of my quests backlog. Especially trying to do the whole Mage set of quests as i really wanna be an awesome mage.

Plus level 40 now so i am finally half decent at a fair bit of stuff.

All of em are pricks (including the Blades), which makes the choice difficult and ergo cooler.

There really wasn't that much to Fallout 3 by Elder Scrolls standards. I think you'd need to play Oblivion to have a good idea of how much has been crammed into Skyrim.

Pretty much, missed a couple of sidequests that would send me back to places I'd already been, but yep.

I know it's been said, but I just love exploring. The other day whilst I was swimming around in the North Eastern part of the map, I came across a skeleton with about 7 gold bars next to it. Sweet.
