sounds likely

Anyways, I look forward to seeing what the PC version looks like when it comes out this November. Console footage was impressive, considering how old the hardware is.

So there are only three MAIN factions he said.

Mages
Thieves
Warriors


we know the DB is in. Is that our own "SECONDARY" faction?

And if so, how long is it going to be? But really are there more?

Disappointing if true.

Looked good. Combat still looks a little too much like Oblivion for my taste, but the simulated dragons are probably one of the more impressive things I've seen in a long time.

Animations look so good now. That open wide area with giants and mammoths looked amazing. Really reminded of Rohan's area from LotR.

While obviously skyrim is a huge thing, does anybody else feel like Fallout 4 is going to be nuts, specifically just from what we've seen of skyrim? Obviously they'll use the same engine. I hope they put that much into 4 as they have with skyrim.

Lack of animations for that enemy being on fire and then falling from the dragon was a bit janky, but otherwise, looked great!

Yeah I shouldn't be so hard on the Xbox 360, it's 2004 techology released in 2005.

Skyrim looks fan-fucking-tastic. Absolutely incredible in motion.

GOTY without even trying.

Comments like this are weird to me. Because they imply that I have some kind of interest in the game looking bad.

On the contrary, I have only one interest: that the game looks as good as possible on all platforms.

This is one of my all-time most anticipated games and the better it looks the happier I will be.

This new footage looked stunning for 360 given the scope.

You're right, just got caught up in the moment (and glorious footage).

In all honesty, I'm actually on your side, as I'll probably be building a monster rig this fall to run Skyrim. It would be in my best interest to have the best possible product for the PC.

Fallout 4 will probably be on next gen consoles, so I imagine it'll be an even bigger leap than Oblivion to Skyrim.

Argh, is this gonna be on GFW? I would kill for Steam

Why wouldn't it use Steam? Bethesda has been using Steamworks DRM for their latest games. I would be surprised if Skyrim doesn't use Steam for DRM.

Steamworks would be great. Retail sales early on (which will be superior to any Steam deal in the short run) and the benefit of Steam for the long run.

Do Bethesdas physical games even use Steamworks?
I was thinking of getting Skyrim physical copy and thatd just make it even better.

Oblivion + Monster Hunter = Skyrim. This game better not have recycled dungeon and temple designs like Oblivion. I want a modern ES game that at least resembles the originality and scale of Daggerfall. I would be satisfied if Skyrim was even 1/100 the size of Daggerfall. Probably not.

For reference.

The top one is the game map. The second is the highlighted red area in the top pic. Each one of those dots is a location you can fast travel in that province. You can select which to display and the lighter the dot the bigger the location. Each of the 40 provinces has a similar amount of locations to travel.

This is one of the lighter dot locations. There are literally hundreds of city's this size or bigger.

I would literally maim someone for a modern remake of this game. I wouldn't even mind a small texture palette for environments if they manage to preserve the scope of the game. It is simply the largest game every created to my knowledge mmo or otherwise.
