So it IS from Skyrim! Looks fucking great.

Sounds like you work at Bethesda, so if you do, you should tell Ray that this particular piece of art has single handedly raised my hype to a "zomg" level. If the game looks anything like that, I'll be a happy dude.

I pointed Ray to the thread, so he's probably already read your comment.

In other news, three new videos from Todd are up on GI

After she sees what FaceGen has wrought.

BUT SERIOUSLY, further props to Ray, if he is reading. It looks like an AD&D module cover circa mid-Eighties, which gets my high adventure heart racing more than a render ever will.

Damn the game looks fucking awesome :O

Yeah it totally looks like old-school fantasy art. I hope there is a Skyrim CE that has a coffee table style art book. The recent Cataclysm art book with that CE is really awesome. Blizzard has some great concept artists too.

I just watched the gameinformer videos, pretty amazing stuff seems like an awesome studio to work in.

Interesting interviews. He seems like a great guy, and I agree with what he said about 3D tech and gadget accessories. Now I feel confident that won't be in an elder scrolls any time soon. Kinda fun comment about JRPGS and WRPGS too.

Todd Howard seems like an awesome guy.

These concept arts looked so good.

Can't wait! Thankfully there seems to be a lot more variety within the world map this time, I got so sick of just finding Ayleid Ruins, Oblivion gates, Mines, Caves and Forts in Oblivion. There were too many of them with not too much variety. Hopefully they have indeed rectified it and have gone for quality rather than quantity.

Ray is awaiting account verification, so he asked me to say thanks, and that he appreciates all the comments.

Some new information from Power Unlimited (Dutch Magaine) in this thread - http://forums.bethsoft.com/index.php?/topic/1161772-dutch-cover-story-interesting-info-3/

Haven't got much time to post or summarise, but the info is on the first page of the thread. Feel free to start a new thread, if it warrants.

The Lamonster · Jan 25, 2011

Oh thank god, I've been jonesing for some new info and I'm bored at work right now.

"Dungeons will be locked at their level once you have been there."

Good thing we have mod tools...

"We are working at pop-up issues, and we want to make sure that the graphics of the PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 are alike. All three will look just as good, aside from the higher resolution and the anti-aliasing of the PC of course."

No PC-specific optimizations/effects? ...Really?

"Dark Brotherhood is back"

Even though I always play 'good' characters, this was by far my favorite 'guild' in Oblivion. I loved stalking and murdering people, Dexter-style. Awesome news.

EviLore · Jan 25, 2011

...It's like being proud that your 360/PS3/Wii game looks identical on all three platforms. That's nothing to be proud about.
