Is this game really as long as I think?

[Reaper]

So I'm 10 hours in and only on the 4th story quest. Literally just went to the mountain to meet with the greys. All I've been doing is a sidequest at the college up north and it seems to go on forever. Did I accidentally start the dlc before the main story?

[Col. Yevgeny Borisovitch Volgin]

no you didn't start the DLC. the quests associated with the DLC starts are as follows:

Main Quest: Dawnguard (Dawnguard DLC). it will start after you reach Lvl 10 and either hear a someone mention the Dawnguard being reformed or you enter a town fight a group of vampires and are approached by an orc and he starts a conversation with you.

Main Quest: Dragonborn (Dragonborn DLC). it will start after you meet with the Greybeards. Either it will be in a city and you are stopped by the Cultists or a random World Encounter once Main Quest: The Horn of Jurgen Windcaller starts.

as of this post i have 1345 hours logged.

If you rush thru the main story it isn't too long, but if you do all the sidequests and do the achievements, it can take quite a bit of time.

So this game is gonna last me until fallout 4. Geez, I'm gonna sink more time into this than all my other games combined at this rate

I have easily 2000+ hours in morrowind alone.

Whelp. I'm scared now. Guess I'm not buying another game for a year. Even after hundreds of hours to finish it, then there's the infinite supply of awesome mods I've seen.

i'm at over 1400hrs in skyrim, and *still* find new stuff... even excluding mods!

hundreds of hours and still more stuff. You can be done whenever you want or just keep wandering and exploring all without completing the main quest.

this game takes about one hundred hours plus side quest

This game will take weeks... no, months! of your life away!

but if you want a true experience of skyrim
go to console, and type casq
Be on your merry way to CTD :)
