On replayability

Post » Thu May 17, 2012 1:15 pm

Seems like this game is extremely replayable. I didn't do a humongous amount of random wandering, and I got to level 50 having dont the vast majority of my random questing in the whiterun area.

It just feels as if doing the main questline, quests in riverwood and one main city, quests related to whichever side of the war you take, and the quests for your chosen 'guild' could easily get you to level 40. Means I can play this game through ~3-5 times without overlapping more than about a third of the content! Pretty cool job bethesda.

That's one of the major strengths of the recent Elder Scrolls games.

You can have multiple replays that offer you significantly different experiences depending on your character.

90 hours in X_X and done maybe... less than 10% of the game and finished no questlines :P Not even really started MQ so yes lots of replayability... once I 'complete' it.
