I've never play Skyrim, but I am at nearly 35 hours into Kingdoms of Amalur and I don't think I've completed a quarter of the game yet. QQ
Thankfully they finally, finally fixed that bug that didn't allow you to run. I managed to pick it up after that and haven't had a problem with it since. I would recommend picking it up used for your XBox360 or through Steam if you want an excellent action RPG.

Same here. I was in fact saving for Diablo III, but then I found out Amalur demo, then bought the game. After a demo, I wasn't ready for the size of the game though.

Have you tried modding your Skyrim, roleplaying your character, certain restrictions during a playthrough and so on? Ever tried a playthrough with a wooden sword, no magic or perhaps finishing most quests by sneaking and reverse-pickpocketing poison? It can become really challenging and fun. I have to agree that vanilla Skyrim just as it is can get boring quickly, but with the stuff mentioned it's easy to add a few thousand hours of gameplay as long as you have the discipline to strictly stick to your/your characters restrictions and the creativity to come up with fun challenges and characters.
Gonna say this: if you need mods or any other "extra" stuff such as roleplay to make a game goos, then, that game is not goos.

I never modded Oblivion or Skyrim. I modded Morrowind, but only because I wanted additional adventures and features (like my own house).

But if with just a few additions you can make it the goosest game ever made, why pass it up?

Search for this guy, Unreal. He mods Skyrim so much, that it yields results like this, this, this, this, this and especially THIS. Skyrim porn, at its finest. If you have a rig capable of churning out enough to play such heavily modded version (around 100 visual only mods), then, I doubt if I would ever play another game for visual superiority.

Skyrim on its own is very much worth the money, as you can still get lots of game time on it. People with hundreds of hours in their saves still discover new quests and interesting locations.
Nonetheless, as VoluptaBox already pointed out, with a few mods this game can definitely become one of the greatest games in a while with very high game time count for your money as well as high replay value. Mods help with the replay value by providing everything from little details, DLC-sized questlines up to complete gameplay and visual overhauls.
A feature of Bethesdas games is that they are highly moddable and you can tailor them to suit your needs exactly. This is why I value their games a lot and it'd be a shame to pass up the chance of modding, given that there are a lot of really good mods out there.
I think the only game I played more intensively is Warcraft 3, which I still believe to be the best game out there, even about ten years later.

Heretic.
Morrowind is where it's at.
This couldnt be more correct.

Morrowind Vanilla (or at least with the basic essential mods) is better than Vanilla Skyrim imo. Of course, modded Skyrim is far superior due to the better modding tools that are available and a better modding community.
