All quests AND all dungeons, caves, dwarven ruins?

Don't try to tell me that I can escape it on the first few minutes.
My answer will contain two words- Role-Playing.

Yes, Forsworn Conspiracy is a good one. Even some dungeon crawls can be made fairly unique with a little effort, though.

Quest designers should ask themselves every time they make one "What makes this quest more fun than 'kill sixteen giant rats and bring me the whiskers'?" Single player games have a big edge over MMORPGs in terms of what you can allow the actions of the player to do to the world, so if your quests feel MMORPG-ish (And Skyrim's generally DOES), then you're not living up to the potential.

I have played this game so much yet all those 500 hours or so in total or maybe not aren't enough for me to complete everything. I'm still finding new things in the Dawnguardless game. I tend to play the game slowly and take my time. Now that I've gotten into fast traveling rarely, the game is just a playground for me that is filled with more to find. I found an area yesterday that I somehow never knew about. It was one that had a quest attached to it that was more or less a dungeon crawl. I lost about most of my steel arrows there and was having a blast simply sneaking about and learning how to sneak and do things as if my character was doing them with caution.

Role playing has opened up a gate filled with giant amounts of content I can give more story to, as well.

Yes. It isn't impossible, but it would be difficult.

When you say it like that it sounds like alot lol, but believe me soon you'll have all the locations discovered like I do and all the faction quests done. Then you'll be like "more dlc please!"

Most probably with heavy Power-Gaming , grinding and Fast-Traveling ?
I'm sorry but that isn't called playing a TES game.

Quantity over quality. What is there, isn't all that amazing.

Personally , for me the priority is the world.
In size and in quality , Skyrim is the best game for that for the next 4 years.

Actually, I wouldn't level at all.

Well then there are many places you'll die even on Novice.

Then I'll take the challenge.

I actually fast traveled a ton on my first playthrough on Skyrim, but never found everything. Of course, like I said, I play slowly. I like to look at stuff and explore more than anything else when I play games. Every game I play is played slowly because I want to look around and admire the scenery. Even PS1 games look beautiful to me still. If you have ever played Tail of the Sun, you might find yourself just thinking, "This is a PS1 game and it is an open world strategy game? Wow..." At least I feel that way about it.

I also am obsessed with looking for ragged pants in Skyrim due to the lack of standalone pants... Been doing that since day one.

Except that it's the most amazing world ever.

Scotland looks better.

Pffff..

That would take me two in game months.

It might take me longer since I like to create conversations with the characters of the game in my head when my character talks to them. I also would be busy looking at stuff. The College of Winterhold's questline was too short, though. I haven't bothered with it since the first time I did it.

I made a mage and didn't find it very appealing. Is it worth it?

My regular rant:

Role-Playing.

I'd get inside the college after I've been to all the court wizards in Skyrim ( she actually hints you that ).
That prolongs the quest for weeks.

I found it more empty than Tails's storyline in Sonic Adventure 1 in terms of length. Maybe role playing would make it less empty, but it was just a bunch of quests that loosely involved some magic to me.

Sure quantity is nice and all, and you can see that Bethesda wanted this game to have a ton of content, but whats missing is the quality. Some quests are great, but most are the same fetch quests and dungeon diving that the good quests get drowned out by them. The factions are overall much shorter then Oblivion's and are less interesting IMO.

I usually rush through the later 2/3 of College quests because of roleplaying.
Since... things are happening, I don't find it realistic for the character to slack off.

I done only the Saarthal quest
