How long is your average playthrough last in in-game days? levels?

[Scrab]

Im curious, many mods use in game hours and days as cooldown or level as requirement to properly distribute their available content over an entire playthrough

 

Lately Im wondering though if those cooldowns or requirements might not be causing content to be "unreachable" due to content just being stretched too far apart ?

.. thus Im asking what are your average playthrough lengths regarding level and in game days? Hoping to get a better understanding of how much content should be split

Level 81. Ranging from 60 to 90 in game days.

the hightest level i got is 30 until i got bored. But my newest save is pretty fun and i think  i might hit 31 this time ?

I may have skewed your results with my answer as I'm a serial re-starter...sorry!

 

But I was just thinking about pacing content this morning (I'm working on a small mod atm). So far all my stuff is chained without lvl checks, days or cooldowns. I thought I'd get everything in place then worry about that later. Will be interesting to see how your poll turns out!

my highest was 300something 

 but last time i was actualy playing this game was like 2/3 years ago...

 

and tbh i was kinda cheating... i mean... if devs are too stupid to not remove bugs and exploits... why not to use it?...

 so yee... my illusion is just for making tons of XP and Levels, and first thing i was always doing was going to cave behind whiterun

 to get transmutate ore spell, so i can turn iron into gold... make gold stuff with gems and levelup my smithing to level 100 in no time 

 

then just quick run to levelup everything else ( mostly just doing dark brotherhood quest and leveling on NPCs in second hideout xD )

 after 3/4 h u have everything maxes and some quests finshed ;x...

 

then all u have left to do is stacking your enchanting and alchemy items and making OP stuff

 and if ever need more stamina / magicka / health... just levelup illusion to Legendary 60 70 80 or 90+ xDDD

 

with good mana regen items u can make level 100 Illusion in like 5 / 10 min ( just a lot of clicking )

 but u can always levelup illusion while walking sneaking or fighting 

 

just always have silent spell in ur off hand and cast spell every time u have mana

 

 

But tbh. i never needed high level... with my sneaking and archery skill i was simply too powerful for anything that skyrim have to offer

 

hmm... actualy thats reason why i never happy with Thief Guild Quest... i rly hate it when i get shot just because it was scripted...

She could never hit me before i hit her T-T... ehh... bad scripted scenes... anywaa...

 here is little vid: xDD

Last two I did was Level 3x before I screwed up that playthrough, and before that level 8x with 160+ irl hours.

"1. ... in (in game) days"

That's a thing? ?‍♂️

Need to search where that stat is hiding ?

 

I use Bashed Patch to check RL hours played.

Quicky for testing 2-20-40 hours

For extended testing 120 hours

Test that became a game 400-600 hours

Longest journey 1200 hours

 

2. .. in levels

With all those devious mods or hardcore enemy mods leveling is rather hard and my PC depends highly on equipment and/or followers:

average short game: ~ lvl 25 (most lvls only from crafting)

Most games: < lvl 75

1x in all those years lvl 100

1x after 1200 hours lvl 125+

Interesting, I will check it out when I am back to my pc. I bet my current play through is 2-300 in game days and level 280 or something 

 

Let’s see how wrong I was ?✌?

I usually make it into the 20's or 30's on level which is probably 30-40 days in-game before I get bored with the playthrough or too many things goes awry. My highest level is 50ish.
