Fans of the Elder Scrolls series know that when they grab their copy of Skyrim on November 15th, they’ll be entering an actual living breathing world which most expect to stay immersed in well into the new year. However, if you wanted to, the game can actually be completed in just over two hours.
At Bethesda’s traditional speed run championships, QA man, Sam Berstein (pictured on right), finished Skyrim in 2 hours, 16 minutes and 10 seconds. Second place went to level designer, Jeff Brown, who completed Skyrim with a time of 2:16:30.
With the amount of side quests, character leveling up, and overall things to do in Skyrim, we are 99% positive that no gamer picking this one up will attempt to finish it as fast as they can, however it’s pretty interesting to know that the game can be completed with just over two hours of playtime. We can accurately say that if your playing Skyrim just to see how fast you can complete the game, there is most likely something wrong with you (no offence)

LMFAO in Oblivion it took me about two hours to figure out what to do! Well actually it probably didn’t take that long but it sure felt like it…
I bet after beating the last main story mission, he looked at his completion percentage and realized it was at only 0.2% complete lol
probably was set to the easiest difficulty which if you did in the others you know it takes one hit to kill someone. if you only do the main quests, only fast travel, and only do it on super easy of course its possible

I don’t care how fast you can complete this game, I will milk every minute of it.
Demon’s Souls speed run in Youtube is less than 1 hour. Not a single death, no cheating. Bosses slammed in three shots. I still have to figure it out how is that possible.
Actually there were deaths. He/she died to save time.
It’s that short? I’m not buying it.
He only did the main quests. I’m sure it will take at least 50 hours if you’re going to do some side-quests and take time to level your character.
Well I remember reading about a guy who did a speed run for 100% of Oblivion in only 15 hours. That includes side quests, main quests, and everything in between. That being said, this news doesn’t bother me too much.
The game comes out on November 11th, not on November 15th ^^

Eh, I watched a guy a couple days ago sppedrun Dark Souls in about 3 hours. I have 34 hours in it and I have literally just made it to Sen’s Fortress. Taking your time FTW.
Looks good. Could be better if they didnt have to make the map smaller just to fit it on a lamebox disk.
Just imagine how big Skyrim would be if it used a full blu-ray disk. It would be one epic game.
I’ll tell you how much. Exactly 0% bigger. Nobody has every used an entire 50GB BD on a PS3 game, where most of it wasn’t full of FMV’s or redundant data to make the game load quicker. Troll harder.
It will be the Sandbox to play in that the cat didn’t shit in. Oh Happy Day!!!
Well it looks like DarkSouls beats Skyrim then.
I saw a film where Dark Souls was defeated in 87 minutes.
