    Wow that’s a lot. I think total I have maybe 150 hours. 120 on steam mostly with one character. I beat all the main quest, a few side quest, and then played through all the dlc’s. (Which were mostly pretty good.)

    I bought Elder scrolls online when it was first released on steam.

    The game was awful. I played through Skyrim with a controller and only wanted to play ESO with a controller so I didn’t look at it for years.

    I recently installed it on steam deck and it now has controller support and is free to play.

    So I’m gonna play through that. It’s basically a online version of Skyrim.

      Wow ESO is now free to play i totally didn’t see that comming sarcasm

      Mods can still make skyrim a lot better than ESO in my opinion. I even found out install dotnet48 works again in wine 8.0 so using that i was able to create a prefix with that installed. I haven’t gotten far modding yet but the .net script framework at least doesn’t crash yet when loading up the game so maybe it now works normally.

        Modding world seems like a lot to learn about. ESO does look a whole lot better today than when first released.

        Lots of people are saying it works as a good single player game.

        I also got the open source engine of Morrowind working on Linux. That seems fun.

        Lots of elderscrolls universe to explore while we wait for the next mainline single player game.

          Skyrim has a multiplayer Mod. I use it to couch co-op with my spouse. We both put in maybe a 100 hours together

          To couch Co-op you need a sandbox utility that lets you launch a second instance of Skyrim, and a resolution setting utility to make it borderless at half the res of your TV

          We tried top/bottom but found left/right to be much nicer split screen

          The multiplayer mod allows for quite a few players, don’t remember the limit
