Crazy how many hours I got into Starfield so far. 

Skyrim on 360, I'm not sure as it didn't track, but I think it was around 110, when I played it again on Xbox one, looks like 140 ish. Fallout 4 had me at 210 hours, I remember doing a lot more with outposts in that game, plus I played all the DLC and 100% it cheevo wise. I'm guessing with DLC it will surpass Fallout 4 for me. 

After today I will hit 3 days of playtime, or 72 hours, on the in-game tracker, I'm at 67 hours right now. I'm at less than halfway point on main story, have 3 missions left on the Freestar and UC factions, have I think 6 left on Ryujin faction, still haven't started Crimson Fleet. I have been to most named outposts/settlements now and done most of the side quests in each I have been to, though looking on this list of named settlements I do still have a several left to find, the biggest among them beeing The Key, which is associated with the Crimson Fleet. I haven't touched Starship or Base designing at all as of yet, bought the first skill in each now so that I can get started on leveling them up through the challenges.

The main issue I'm having is with the incredibly slow leveling in Starfield, only at 35/100 for the level 100 achievement right now, and since there are scaling XP increases per level, leveling is only going to get slower from here, I'm already at 3k XP per level with some quests only rewarding like 100 XP for completion. I badly need levels right now for skill points as there are still many skills I need to buy, I want to get 4/4 on Stealth for that final Ryujin mission, want to put some points into reduced resource costs before I dive into outpost construction skill leveling as based on what I saw the base modules have very high resource costs, need some points for upgrading both the ship and outpost skills as I complete the challenges for them, I still have very few points in the ground combat or physical tree so I want to put a few points into those for things like more weapon damage, more damage resistance, and more health at least, I still need piloting 4 for C class ships and I want to upgrade my ship shield and weapons a bit more as well, I want to get a few more tiers of the commerce skill for better buying and selling prices, want to upgrade my carrying capacity a bit more. I think I'm just going to need to go power level for awhile, buy a bunch of high XP foods to eat, go to a planet with high level alien creatures, and then just farm the heck out of them while eating XP booster foods.
