See that's exactly my point. Morrowind for example only got boring after about the 5th or 6th restart, cause every single time you played it, something different happened, you uncovered a new quest line, a new treasure hunt, hidden cities and locations etc. Skyrim has much less of that, but it fools you into thinking it has more of everything.
Skyrim is NOT a bad game, it is a GREAT game, I just think they could have done more in the replay value department.

I agree with Maplassie. I felt this way about both Skyrim and Oblivion. You actually reached a point where you've done everything there is to do, and then replayablility jumps out the window.

I've restarted Morrowind 7 times, and I'm still finding new content all over the place. :D

And on top of that, I don't even own any of Morrowind's expansion packs yet.

THIS ^^ +999999

I reinstalled Morrowind during my leave in December and just fooled around a bit. I found a couple of things that made me go "Oo, HOW COULD I NEVER HAVE SEEN THIS?"

Graal you should really get the Tribunal Expansion if you are keen to revisit Morrowind, it's definitely worth it.

I don't think you need replayability if your first playthrough can last you 100+ hours. Personally I just don't have the time to spend those many hours so these huge playtimes don't really hold much appeal to me, give me a quality experience and I'll be happy. :)

I'm just waiting for the Morrowind GotY to go on sale again, then I'm snatching it.

I'm also finally going to download the Morrowind overhaul, as they finally have a torrent for it. My ISP shapes http traffic, so the files were downloading at a max of 12kb/s using direct download.

It's basically a whole graphics overhaul for Morrowind that makes it look almost like Oblivion, and in some places it even surpasses Oblivion.

Seems like Skyrim is becoming yesterday's news. I haven't played it in about 3 weeks. As soon as I got all the achievements it wasn't even worth playing it.

Its seems those that go after the achievements just don't play the game anymore. Started my 2de playtrough the other day and must say there are loads of things I did not see in the first playtrough. I wish just that quest would also be diffrent depending on your race.

Unless your maplassie :p

:d :d

One thing that really annoys me about skyrim patches. They NEVER include a changelog. :mad:

What was this 17mb patch that just downloaded?

Wondering the exact same thing here. It's ridiculous.

Although I suspect it might just be the .exe, seeing as the .exe is around that size. Might just have been something like the RAM update.

edit: And now it's downloading another update of the same size.
