Come on. Confess.

Skyrim is the longest time I've spent playing one game (apart from maybe Morrowind but that's because I had to play large chunks of that twice after my XBox died.)
I think I previously took 60 hours to complete both Kotor 2 and Tomb Raider Legend (and that's 100% completion with all the treasures, the story was about 15) but modern games tend to be finishable far too quick....

*checks library*
Limbo: 5
Portal: 5
Fez: 7 (Even though I haven't finished "properly.")
Half Life- Ep 1: 7
Although Tomb Raider Underworld was over 20 and I currently have 18 for both Assassin's Creed and Burnout Paradise.

Well I tend to play stuff without a "finish"...
My No Man's Sky is close to 140 hours and began playing way after you started playing Skyrim....

If anyone remembers my previous screenshot of the world I chose for my home base, because it was pretty and had green grass, this is what it looks like after I installed some mods... oops.

Maybe it's a different season.

or an alternate reality?

I took a tour of my bases today, to see how their worlds had changed with my mods. Apparently they get reclaimed by soil/rock if you don't visit often enough. I have to stop placing them into the ground and start building them above ground I guess...

For the most part the planets have just gotten more flora and fauna (and minerals) and bigger things all over (actually I think it overdoes it a bit... suddenly every planet is "more special", but I guess I'll get used to it...) - but one of them seems to have been flooded since I built the base


(That little blue thing on the right side is a solar panel previously built on the ground, now "floating" in the water... luckily it seems to still be supplying power to the base (more specifically the transporter gate in the base).

Made a bit of progress in Arkham Asylum last night but now I've got to the stage where some of the generic baddies can actually block my attacks... which is annoying.
I guess I'll have to use some strategy and tactics instead of my panicky button-bashing.

And I remembered to have a sleep in Skyrim. I think I've been constantly awake for several weeks!

Ooh, that looks nice!
Especially with the glowing light.

yeah, I think I'll try to build an actual under water base somewhere here
