I have to say, the scenery is stunning. Just wandering around is something I quite enjoy doing... watching the clouds mix in with the trees on a distant mountainside, riding the river currents (just watch out for that big waterfall... turns out you can't drop that far!), exploring the heights of the mountains and the depths of the lakelands. I just love exploring in this game and it's often rewarding. =]

As for how many hours I play, I have this habit with the game - after a couple of hours of playing, I think "Okay, that's me done for a while. Save... quit... okay, let's surf the 'net or something." <five minutes pass> "I think I'll play Skyrim for a bit." <two hours later> "Okay, that's me done for a while. Save..."
