Following my old man habit (as happened with Morrowind and Daggerfall) of getting fatigued of these (great) bigass games and being unable to finish them in one go, dropping them for months, later picking up the save, maybe dropping and repeating this a few times until I even finish the main quest after real-life years of having started...
That time I didn't finish any big quest, but I just picked up Skyrim back again some days ago. I've finished the annoying vampire extension, advanced the main quest a lot (kicked Alduin's ass once -- how the Hell was he supposed to be able to flee combat if I knew Dragonrend? Plot hole...), become archmage, liberated Skyrim from the empire, currently trotting Solstheim (much better than in the sub-sub-par Bloodmoon). Equipment etc. maxed up... Still loving this game, and this time I can finish I think.
As slow a player as I am, I am going to need another Elder Scrolls game some day. I may even try Online, even though I've never played any online multiplayer game, specially since it appears to be a really open-ended game in the genuine Elder Scrolls spirit; and I can't wait to see the lore and scenery they have come up with for a game set in the whole of Tamriel for the first time since Arena. I only don't like from the media I've seen, that it seems to be more cartoony than previous TES games, and a lot of creatures have been introduced which were never in TES lore, but seem to come from D&D's generic monster catalog.
However what I would still really love first of all, is if I could play a remake of Daggerfall that, besides updating graphics even if only in resolution, specially fixed the issues of the original game in dungeon navigation. I know there is little or no chance since the Elder Scrolls world and lore accumulated from games so far can provide Bethesda with unlimited material to make new games. Even from fans the closest thing seems to be this
dead project, which wouldn't seem to fix the dungeon problem.
