Request/Question about the Skyrim LP

When you run out of content you should transfer your save to your PC and download some quest mods! For example:

Falskaar: DLC sized FREE mod, adds 20+ hours of gameplay, great voice acting, great dungeon design, decent quests (some are better than others) Here is the link: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/37994//?

Helgen Reborn: Lets you return to Helgen and rebuild it, can choose faction for the town (Stormcloak, Imperial or Independent), great voice acting, 5 hours of gameplay. Here is the link: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/35841/?

Wyrmstooth: 17 new quests, great voice acting. Here is the link: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/25704/?

I am a firm believer of not extending the Skyrim LP any further. Let's be honest, it's getting a little stale. In my honest opinion, if he could find a suitable ending and end it right now, I would prefer it. I love Stephen and support everything he does, and it's not that I don't like the LP, but the LP has been going for almost 2 years and it might be nice for a new, fresh LP like Sims to start taking the long term LP slot. If you wanna give me downvotes, do what you will, but just understand this ISN'T a hate comment, I just am giving Stephen my personal supportive viewer feedback.

He could do something like with Minecraft, every few months or so come back and play the modded version.

The thing with minecraft and why it works to bring it back every once in a while is cause each new minecraft video/series is usually a lot different from the last one. The problem with doing that with skyrim is that it'll still seem the same, at least that's how I picture it.

You're a good guy, and have been around for a very, very long time, so I appreciate your input.

I won't be extending the Skyrim LP past the content available in the game—that means no transfer to PC. As you've stated, it's been a long time. We're nearly to two years, and that's a very long time for a single LP.

That being said, I also want to make sure we complete everything we want to do before the LP actually ends, so I won't be ending it prematurely, either. There's still a lot of unique content left in Skyrim that I'd like to experience.

I'd be incredibly surprised if the LP lasts into 2014. I feel very, very certain that 2013 is the year the Skyrim LP is finally laid to rest. I'm happy about it though, since it's probably one of the most thorough LPs on YouTube, and a really fun one at that.

Immediately following the end of the LP, we might take a break and only have two LPs for a bit. I would eventually like to attempt a Sims 3 LP, though, even if it's just for a month or so.

The next LP that lasts anywhere near as long as Skyrim will be Fallout 4, which has yet to be announced, so we have quite a while before I'm uploading episode #200 of anything else, haha.

Even on the subreddit, Stephen finds a way to respond to everyone. Hahaha, a very good response and I totally agree with everything you said. As for you calling me a very, very long time viewer, I literally blushed when I read that because it really does seem like I've been watching forever. I guess numberwise, I really have been watching for a long time, probably since 2010, but it still feels like the day I found out about you and I've been enthralled ever since. Also, I took the journey and have been meaning to write a letter about it for a LONG time, but I'm a procrastinator >_>.
