I also hope they fix the glass armor. Looked great in Morrowind, horrible in Oblivion.

Dixanadu 02-12-2011 10:30 AM

For glass, green wasn't a good colour. The swords looked like chunks of Tiberium.

MeechMunchie 02-13-2011 05:33 AM

Say whaaa

What the hell is wrong with those?

Fuck, I HOPE they're chunks of tiberium. That would be awesome.

Disgruntled Intern 02-13-2011 08:34 AM

Tiberium or kryptonite. Either way.

Dixanadu 02-13-2011 04:32 PM

Yes, get smacked with a tiberium sword and have a voice constantly reminding you tiberium has been detected.

MeechMunchie 02-24-2011 06:25 AM

You saw it here first folks.

Link no work.

MeechMunchie 02-24-2011 06:45 AM

Well, here's something better.



EPIC. It's got the scale of Lord of the Rings, and the alienation of Morrowind! The sense of heroism, but also the sense that this world is too much for one man! Plus they used the Morrowind theme, but Viking-y!

Ridg3 02-24-2011 06:51 AM

Skyrim looks stunning, absolutely fucking gorgeous. I'm so going to pre-order this.

MeechMunchie 02-24-2011 06:59 AM

So is half the population of THE UNIVERSE

FUCK YEAH

JUST FUCK YEAH

JUST FUCK

YEAH

Yeah, me too. I think I might need a change of pants.

Dynamithix 02-24-2011 09:44 AM

It looks amazing. I might pre-order it later.

Dixanadu 02-24-2011 09:47 AM

Months will be spent on this.

When I mean months, I mean my Xbox will be on for fucking months. With Elder Scrolls, there's always just one more level up, or just one more quest to do, I couldn't bring myself to stop playing Oblivion the first time around, and before I knew it, it was fucking morning.

I hope it has awesome ever-changing weather too, not just night and day, rain and thunder and cloudy weather. Made me feel like I was in a real world for once.

Dynamithix 02-24-2011 09:51 AM

Why you're always offline, Dix?

I, too, will most likely pre-order this for the 360. I first thought about the PC, but then I remembered it can't handle any games with that good graphics. Yay!

Dixanadu 02-24-2011 09:56 AM

Because I'm a cheap-ass whore.

Besides, my being on Xbox Live is equivalent to pandas mating. It's so rare, and you just have to be there at the right time.

MeechMunchie 02-24-2011 10:01 AM

Bear in mind that the PC version will be modded within months of release. You don't get that on consoles. Also, mouselook.

Nice breakdown of the trailer:

They're nicking all my RPG ideas!

How interesting.

Daxter King 02-24-2011 10:13 PM

This might just destroy Gears 3 and Battlefield 3 in the fight for which disc is melted into my 360 this holiday.

Xavier 02-24-2011 10:49 PM

Wow, I'm genuinely impressed! I'm so going to preorder the limited edition of this game.

metroixer 02-27-2011 10:36 AM

Trailer is cool

e: I would love to have this on PC but I just know there is no chance I would be able to run it. I'll get it for 360, then 5 years later buy it off steam for 10 dollars, just like I did with Oblivion.

THE ALMIGHTY RAISEN 02-27-2011 01:38 PM

I've watched the trailer so many times that i think im having an awesomeness overdose.

Strike Witch 02-27-2011 08:46 PM

looks the same

MeechMunchie 02-28-2011 07:34 AM

As Oblivion? Yes. The graphics aren't the exciting part.

Dixanadu 02-28-2011 10:06 AM

I read a game magazine that drooled over the fact you get to pick from ten races in Skyrim.

Um...did they even play Oblivion?

It's still drool-worthy, and you never know when a developer is going to axe much-loved features from a sequel.

Dixanadu 03-01-2011 06:51 AM

I know I know, but it's the fact that there were ten races in Oblivion too.

There are several more races, though they're all in the farflung continent of Akavir.

Bullet Magnet 03-01-2011 08:50 AM

I'm hoping they'll include anthropomorphic barnacles. I've waited years to see those.

Dixanadu 03-01-2011 09:08 AM

Is that canon or just something you think should be included?

Bullet Magnet 03-01-2011 09:15 AM

It's all my idea. Barnacle variants are extremely under-represented in all fantasy settings.

Dixanadu 03-01-2011 09:18 AM

Because they stick to things and are hard to pry off.

Unless they include barnacles stuck to the boughs of ships!
