Thoughts on Skyrim

Have you ever played Skyrim? If so, when you play it, do you pay attention to the story, read all of the books and stuff like that? I personally can't keep up with so much info. What about you?

I did not like skyrim until I took an arrow in the knee

I read some but for the most part there is too much loot so I skipped some

I did play Skyrim (and Oblivion, years before). I usually tried to follow the story, but I couldn't keep up with all the secondary quests and the books. I guess you really have to be into it. It was the same for Oblivion, but I have to admit to have found some storylines more inspired (like the assassin's guild story). Time to time I make a comeback but it never lasts.
