You Can Play Skyrim Forever

Skyrim is a huge game. We knew that already, what with the predictions of a 300-hour gameplay experience. But what we didn’t know is that the game actually continues into infinity, automatically generating content for as long as you feel like playing it.

Sound confusing? Well it is – a little bit. Game director for Skyrim, Todd Howard, has talked a bit about how the games’ new Radiant storytelling system never stops spitting out content, even after you finish the scripted stuff.


Howard says that the game’s engine will randomly create new quests for players that are engineered to send people into areas they haven’t previously visited. Quests can include assassinations, stealing things and, more than likely, slaying dragons. Oh, and don’t worry about running out of dragons – they’re infinite too. Basically, the system creates quests using a random smattering of in-game elements.


Frankly, I find the idea of an infinite game somewhat terrifying. I downloaded Minecraft last night and even that was enough to overwhelm me, so I’m not really looking forward to trying to sort out everything Skyrim has to offer. I just don’t have 300 hours to put into one title, especially not in the face of the 2011 holiday barrage.


What about you? Do you have time for infinite quests?

It's better to have a game that lasts forever than spending 60$ on a game that lasts 3 hours...

One of the reasons I stopped playing Oblivion was because I finished all of the quests.

Can't wait to get it in two days!

wow - good for them for making a game with A SHIT-TON of replayability. In the wake of games with 5 and 10 hour main stories, bravo to the Skyrim creators.

The level cap is 70. After 50 it will go extremely slow according to the developers. Got to level 9 since I had it on Wednesday.

The game is awesome, spells are overpowered, the landscape is widely unvaried, a lack of NPC's around in towns/villages and dragons have weird animations in battle. You'll find yourself looking in circles looking for it only for it to swoop down and breathe fire (or ice) at you in your blind spot. 9/10 from me.

Sounds cool and all but what would be the point of doing the quests? Is there an infinite number of items and abilities to gain by do the infinite quests?

Questioning the point of playing video games essentially. there is no point - you play it for as long as it entertains you and these unlimited quests will probably entertain a lot of people for a very long time.

i disagree. there is definitly no reason play for more than 2 hrs except for the infinite gameplay. then you can plan for 3 hrs

even if there is a infinite quest generator that generates random quest it's going to become boring to do the same thing over and over when there aren't any point of doing it.

I see it like all the random crimes in the open world Spider-Man games, it becomes very annoying and meaningless when you spend hours in to doing something that doesn't seems to have any impact on the world around you

It's a nice idea, but I doubt people are gonna play Skyrim in say 10 years (nostalgia aside). Too much will change technically, and it will seem old and tired. I just wish Rock* could do something similar with GTA V. I seem to lose interest after the main story ends.
