So as of last night, I am finished with the main quest. What's it been? 3 weeks? Approximately 90 hours of gameplay.

Hours wise it's not the fastest. When I finished Oblivion's main quest, I was somewhere around 90 hours as well. But even though I bought Oblivion when it first came out, I didn't actually finish the main quest until some point a few months ago (August, I think it was). I got a good chunk into the main quest when I first got it, but computer issues made me lose my progress. After getting a new gaming laptop, I again gave the game a go (after a bunch of attempts at characters that didn't stick), and finally got even further into the main quest, before once again having computer issues and losing my progress. When my laptop finally blew up, I eventually just bought it again for the X-Box 360 and finished it up finally this year.

With Morrowind, I didn't track my hours, but I'm sure it was somewhere along the same time frame in terms of hours. But I took at least 2 hiatus' from Morrowind before finally completing the main quest, and probably had the game for over a year before I finally finished it (I also got it when it came out). Unfortunately, that character is also gone now too, so I can't even go back and revisit him In terms of my own personal Elder Scrolls canon, the Nereverine in my timeline is now deceased.

But I finished up the Skyrim main quest last night. Unlike with Morrowind and Oblivion, I was able to get through 90 hours of gameplay without taking a break from the game. I still feel like there's a lot I'd like to accomplish with this character as well, so I may have a ways to go with this character yet.

I did Oblivion's main quest in about 9-12 hours. I started it one night and got caught up in it and was sort of like "What? I'm done?"

This time I'm doing it a few stages at a time and trying to intermix.

To be honest, Morrowind's main quest didn't really grip me that much. I got about 1/2 way and stopped. I enjoyed the Great Houses and Guild Quests much more.

Oblivion's main quest takes like... 4-5 hours. I'd say Skyrim is around the same, or even shorter.

Oblivion and Skyrim main quests will be pretty damn short if you just focus on that and plow your way through it. I like doing other stuff parallel to doing the main quest as well, and I don't fast travel, so it ends up taking me about 90 hours of game time.

I was like 300 hours in Oblivion before I continued with the mainquest. Trying to do Kvatch as level 25 Thief made me hold off from the MQ.

In Skyrim I was originally planning to hold off from the mainquest longer but then I "accidentally" ended up doing Bleak Falls Barrow and the quest right after it, causing dragons to appear. The first scripted dragon fight went easy but then the next one I fought was a frost dragon and I wasn't prepared at all. After a long battle against the frost dragon and the dragon priest I thought about just continuing with the sidequests. This continued for some time but then after many random dragon fights I thought; "what the hell, might as well do the mainquest now since I'm going to encounter dragons anyway" and jumped right on it and finished it in two sittings.

72 hours into skyirm-main quest done, level 49 (almost 50) and 41/50 achievements on 1 playthrough, I think i've done good
