I wasn't being serious about leveling up to 80, it was just a number I picked. Bethesda could easily add a level cap increase without having to change anything. When Fallout New Vegas came out, the level cap was set at 30, but with each DLC that came out after words, a five level increase was added, so that when the fourth and final DLC was released, the level cap had gone from 30 to 50(yes, I know that Fallout New Vegas was developed by Obsidian Ent, but I figured it was the best example of level cap increase that I'm aware of). And before someone comes out and says to decrease the difficulty, I'm already playing the game on Novice( have been since I got the game last year). Bethesda could easily do the same thing here, just increase the cap at a specified incriment, it doesn't have to be ten levels, it could be five or whatever number Bethesda picks.
