Since it was first released in November 2011, Skyrim can be considered the game with the largest and most extensive world (game territory). The world in Skyrim is so vast that even traveling by foot or horse from place to place can take a few minutes. Although some players think the world in Skyrim is almost as big as the world in the game Oblivion (Skyrim's predecessor), the landscape and construction of the game are so deep and complex that the world feels wider. Completing the entirety of this game can be said to be very difficult, with an endless number of side missions. However, completing Skyrim is not as difficult as one might think and is, in fact, quite possible.

Tips
- Get good equipment. Weapons and clothing are important in Skyrim. The better your weapons and equipment, the better your chances of surviving against enemies or bosses. Good quality clothes, weapons and shields can be found in treasure boxes in various dungeons. These items can also be obtained after defeating strong enemies. Make sure you search these places for good equipment.
- Master the magic and abilities required by your class and race. Each race in Skyrim has its own advantages, in terms of special abilities (unique skills) and magic (spell tree). The higher the level of mastery of your character's special abilities and magic, the stronger your character will be and the easier it will be for you to defeat powerful enemies in the game. Head to the 'Skills and Spells' menu to find out more about the special abilities and magic you need to master.
- Focus on the main mission. There are about hundreds of side quests in Skyrim, each one varying in duration, from a few minutes to several hours to complete. If you want to finish Skyrim as quickly as possible, focus on the main mission at hand. Completing side missions doesn't necessarily affect the game's main storyline.
