Nah. I played it until there was literally nothing left for me to do. The only quests I was getting were recycled daily-style quests like "go kill that wandering giant", I had the uber mask from killing all the dragon priests, game beaten, the end. If I get really bored I may go back and play it as a different base class but the level of boredom required for that is really high.

Yeah, but not as often. I mostly play it when I'm marathoning anime. The game is simple enough to play without having to concentrate or think, but it gives me something to do rather than just sit still and watch shows.

I actually have it open right now. It is a great game for listening to podcasts or roleplay in background. I die a lot because I'm focused on Roleplay and I am using Skyre, but it is still a lot of fun. I still have stuff to explore because I keep getting new ideas for cool characters and ditch my old ones. I still haven't gotten around to playing the dlc.

Nope.

I actually tried to make a second character fairly recently. I was going to make a "malevolent pacifist", someone who could do anything except kill sentient enemies. Fear, poison, stuns, cripples, stealing, stealth, just no killing. I was trying to mix it up.

Sadly, it just caused me to realise that the combat is really all the game has to offer and the combat kind of sucks. Walk up to enemy, mash LeftMouse, repeat until everything is dead. Hold LeftMouse if magic user.

Without killing everything that looks at you funny you're left with... what, walk around collecting loot?

Oh yes. Very much so. It goes in cycles like all the games I play but when it's number comes up, I usually fall into it pretty hard.

Currently I am, but I stopped playing it for a very long while waiting for some good mods to appear.

Yes, but only because I just finished playing through the Dragonborn DLC. And it was awesome.

Besides that, I occasionally go back and make new characters, because the beginning of the journey where you have nothing is the most fun for me. But once I can start killing things very easily, I lose interest.

I stopped playing skyrim because I felt it had no soul. Looting wasn't fun. There were no super interesting weapons to gather. No interesting enemies to kill. No interesting places to explore. Mostly just...go to X location, kill people for fun, stack the corpses, cover them in food, leave... rinse repeat.

I fucking loved building my own house though. I did that in one go, until my house was done.

I go through phases of playing certain games to death before moving on to a different one, so yes, I do still play Skyrim. I've come across a few glitches though that seriously harmed my experience, so I haven't touched it in the last month.

I would enjoy it more if I knew more DLC was coming my way. I'm still really sore about that announcement.

Occasionally, to suck up the atmosphere. I don't really play it anymore. What can I say, as a game it's pretty awful and horrible. As a world, it's beautiful.

Yup, though I'm having a bit of problems with my fire focused mage on the Dragonborn DLC.
I suspect those ash-things have some fire resistance.

Not in a while, i did have a third LARGE playthrough recently though. i have gone trough the game three times now, and other games keep me pretty busy. But i might go back at some point.

I haven't played in months, just got bored of it. Particularly after I had to restart my game many months back after dumping over 150 hours into it :/

Not really. Well, I have a bit interesting story with Skyrim:
I bought it because everyone was hyping it up. Then I played for about half hour- 1 hour per day. Once I went back to Windrun, saved and saw that I've played it for 100 hours. My reaction: I've spent 100 hours on this bull****? Oh hell no!

Uninstalled it, deleted all saves, never touched it again.

Some bits here and there, playing my only unarmed combat character Karim of House Klaw. It's really satisfying to one shot german suplex Draugr.

I haven't played in months, but I do plan to return once I'm out phase of other games. I tend to focus on one or two games for weeks or months at a time and then find a reason to eventually play another. Currently I'm going to stop playing Guild Wars 2 soon to play Saints Row IV that I've pre-ordered.

Skyrim has not at all become irrelevant for me. It's one of my favorite games. I've tried looking at some mods I may want to use when I return to it, but surprisingly everything I've found on the Steam workshop seems mediocre at best unless I'm lookin' for hawt skimpy babe skins.

Nah. Skyrim has very little replay value in my opinion. Small world, limited choices. The game also tries too hard to be an FPS trapped in the body of RPG. I don't see any reason to play through again unless maybe I try a different race or tinker with mods.

Not anymore, but I think I'll do another run when I got my new PC. Couple nice-looking mods, highest settings and such...
