there are people in here who seem to be playing it for the 8th time and i've been playing it for about 3weeks now and i only seem to be about half way through?? sometimes i play for 24hrs none stop but i must be doing something wrong coz i seem to be going slower than everyone else!!
whats the deal with that???
cheers!!

The deal with that is it's your first game. [img]smile.gif[/img]

3 weeks and you're halfway through? Sounds about right, especially if you have a life. Most of us don't.

It doesn't get boring because there are different paths you can take, different choices you can make. For example, the good way and the evil way of playing the game. There are so many choices and things that you can do with different reactions that no, it does not get boring the second time.

I've been playing for almost two years. Not only are there the different paths to take based on alignment, but there are the strongholds, soloing, and once that gets old you can always start modding and using other mods. It still hasn't gotten old for me.

I've been playing for about a year now, over and over again. I never get sick of it, because of all the options and paths, and I probably never will. [img]smile.gif[/img]
