Amazingly, it is exactly four weeks since Friday November 11th - and Skyrim was released to the eager Elder Scrolls fandom.
So, how are you doing?
I was interested to see, in the comments to the previous poll result, that quite a few of you didn't vote in the Guild poll because you either haven't started on the Guilds, or at least haven't finished quite a few of them.
I probably shouldn't be surprised, because I'm in exactly that situation myself - I've finished the College of Winterhold quest line and become Archmage, but I haven't touched the others... and won't be for a good while, as my character backstory doesn't lend itself to any of the other Guilds.
And, since we are in 'confession mode', let me say that I have only visited two of the five main cities in the game! Like most people, I've got a base in Whiterun, where Lydia waits loyally in Breezeholme for me to call on her for those quests that need a bit of muscle - and I've been to Windhelm to join the Stormcloaks. But I've not yet visited Solitude, or Riften, or Markath...
So far, I'm at around 80 hours of game play, and the way things are going I fully expect that multiply by at least four of five, as I try things, make different characters, do quests, role-play, explore and generally have fun. I don't even play the game every day, so I'm not suffering from the overload that I've heard some talk about.
But I also realise thats not how many people play.
You blast through the quest lines with a 'do it all' character, playing for many hours in marathon Skyrim sessions! I wonder how those of you who do that are feeling about Skyrim one month in? Are you bored? Are you still having fun? Perhaps you already shelved the game and moved onto something else?
There's a poll for this topic. It uses a new poll widget - because the other one kept breaking - so I'm hoping its going to work properly! There's a good few options for how we are finding Skyrim - so vote now, and tell us your views in the thread.

Some people support that they dont like the game, because its "slow" and monotonous... Well maybe they are correct. In fact, my opinion is the following.
You can make the game really fast, many p... more
