You probably already knew that you were going to sink a significant portion of your life into Skyrim, but did you know that the game is capable of delivering an infinite number of quests?

Skyrim director Todd Howard recently told Wired that Skyrim features a never-ending stream of procedurally generated content. “The world is probably the one thing that sets [Skyrim] apart from other games,” he said. “It feels really real for what it is…It’s just fun to explore.”

As Wired explained the feature, Skyrim will randomly generate new tasks for players based on their progress through the game. For example, an innkeeper might have you hunt for bandits in an unexplored cave while an aspiring alchemist asks you to collect plant matter. Likewise, all of the game’s Guilds will feature radiant quests – having you steal gems or assassinate random individuals – after you complete their scripted quest lines.

Just had a quick go on it, doing the opening segment and getting into the world proper. All good so far and thankfully no texture-related issues that seemed to be a problem on the 360. Nice interface, everything is working as you want it and the world looks to be just as massive as you expect. Lots of PC-specific graphic options too. See you all next year.

It's not a troll actually, it was a jovial little dig. I'm just a little surprised how much time some people have on their hands to obsess over playing so many games. And in all honesty, I appreciate games more because I play less of them.

You sure get through games fast. Look out for the side quest called life.

PS, you played more hours in Q3A than anyone on this forum combined. You also sucked at it.
