I know a standard game is rated around 20 hours, and Oblivion rated 120 hours, but what is this games rated?

I'm at 30 hours and I didn't even did 10% of the MAIN QUESTLINE.
All you need to do is to play your way

This is a sandbox game. You play until you get bored.

Do forum hours count towards this rating? What about lying in bed at night thinking about your next character hours?

liike got arount 18 hourse daily cuz cant think about something else! DD

didn't beth say that they stopped counting after 400 hours? all i know is that im 67 hours in and still have a crap ton of stuff to do. im only level 37!

I got 15 hours into the game and I'm estimated I've done about 2% of everything there is to be done. Over the years I'll put hundreds of hours like I did on oblivion.

I'm upto 25hrs and have only just finished the Civil war questline. I didn't really bugger around all that much either. I think it will take me a good 100-120 to finish this one character, then I'll move onto a Mage and associated questlines.

The original discussion this year talked about 300 hours but there is no real end to it. I'm not sure some gamers realized what they are playing when they complain about things. This game is made for a slow build imho and if someone is racing through the game and not understanding all the choices they are making with perks/training/skill usage, they aren't getting the most out of it. It takes time to learn how to take advantage of everything it offers. I'm finding that it takes about 10 real-time hours to gain about three levels. Sorry...that was on my mind. Keep your eyes on the skies...

The original estimation is once the developers HIT 300 hours of content they stopped counting, and just kept on making stuff well after that.

I'm over 50 hours in at level 17 and have only scratched the surface of the content. I like to take my time and do lots of little stuff.

Im 45 hours with level 24. And I still feel I have just scratched the surface.

Ha 32 hours in and I have only done the first 2 major quests in the main story line. This game is fantastic. There is so much to do and explore on the side, I have only been to about 1/4th of the map and 2 cities.

Lol this is me.
