A full list of Skyrim's Xbox 360 achievements has surfaced on the web. The 50 achievements speak to the sheer amount of detail that Bethesda has crammed into their latest creation. Between exploring more than 100 locations, slaying 20 dragons, and shacking up with my digital wife, I'm pretty sure I'm going to need to make Skyrim my full time job. So long, employment!
There are some light spoilers to be found throughout, but nothing too serious. I've done my best to arrange the achievements into three categories: generic ones that won't offer any surprises, those that might spoil Skyrim's factions, and those that include quest names and potential plot spoilers.
Read on at your own peril.
