holy hell those females look miles better from oblivion.

I was just thinking that the nude mods are going to be pretty awesome this time around.

 

[subversus]

wow

 

[johntown]

It's probably just a plain regular orc with a poor choice for hair - the Kotaku article mentions it's the player character with randomly picked attributes (so the char gen picked hair 'meant' for human races).

Ok so someone wanted their Orc to look ridiculous. I can accept that.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Everything but Argonian and the first "Nord or Imperial females" is ugly.

 

[disappeared]

Why are all of them so ugly? Makes me not want to play the game.

And we're off!

 

[Souljiro]

Where is the Redguard!

I second this! Argonian looks good

 

[Marleyman]

Nord male for me.

 

[Visceir]

Is this the 360 version or something? The first Khajiit screenshot looked much better...

That's a Nord. :p

They're ALL 360 shots.

 

[Izayoi]

They're ALL 360 shots.

I want to see some PC shots. Come on, Bethesda. Throw me a bone here. ;_;

 

[Diprosalic]

the game looks less appealing with every bit off info that gets out.

 

[Danielsan]

First time the Argonians look awesome.
Probably going with a Dark Elf again though.

 

[Artadius]

Did you play Oblivion or Morrowind? Must not have because these are better looking than those games.

And if that's the case then I guess Elder Scrolls just isn't for you, sparky.

 

[disappeared]

I'm sure PC folks have nothing to worry about.

Now, PS3 shots on the other hand, that's what we need to see.

 

[MikeE21286]

360 version? (edit: yes)

Also, dark elf looks bad ass

Don't care for their orc designs

same.

 

[Speevy]

Every pic of indoors makes me suspect that they've once again decided not to include house and shop loot you can steal.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

Is there some sort of "philosopher" build possible? I think I'd like to play as a Philosoraptor.

 

[EteRnal PAL]

Wood Elf:

Edit: Hi-res version

Edit 2: If you look at the eye color, this might actually be a Dark Elf...

Edit 3: Confirmed to be a Wood Elf, thanks racemixing!

 

[Ledsen]

God damn, now I instantly have to start up my fully modded out Oblivion. Want to finish before this awesomeness

 

[disappeared]

Huh?

 

[EteRnal PAL]

Another Khajiit:

 

[Speevy]

Huh?

Just what I said. Wasn't in Oblivion, having doubts it's in Skyrim.

 

[callmedave]

Edit: already posted above

New Nord:

 

[Speevy]

Wood Elf:

They must have a steroid epidemic in the woods.

 

[disappeared]

You could steal/sell (fence) any item that wasn't nailed down. Or are you talking about NPC inventory stuff?

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

Clever girl.

*applause*

 

[Blue Ninja]

Holy shit, some doozies in there.

 

[Speevy]

I'm talking about actual loot. NPCs carried scaled weapons and there was scaled loot in dungeons, but houses consisted of spoons and crap.

In Morrowind I could visit the Vivec treasury or a shopkeeper and go to town.

 

[Sennorin]

Hm, I could never play with anything other than a human. Guess I need it for immersion purposes.

But as someone who doesn´t know much about the TES-games, elves seems like such a non-fitting race for the style of this game. Can´t really tell why, though.

 

[racemixing]

The two Khajits and the Bosmer are custom created characters from game journalists. So I think it's likely the rest are custom as well. Unless someone else knows their source.

 

[DarkKyo]

Wow, very cool. Dark Elf player confirmed!

 

[callmedave]

Not sure of this race:

 

[ironcreed]

holy hell those females look miles better from oblivion.

Damn straight. Makes marriage an intriguing addition, lol.

 

[Buttonbasher]

Argonian looks nice.

 

[Limanima]

I'm actually looking forward for this game. And I don't care about the graphics.

 

[Drazgul]

I know what you mean, I really liked the challenge of those House treasuries in Vivec. If you did manage to get yourself in, you got some really good loot for your efforts.


That archer dude looks great too - gonna be a bit silly tho if everyone, including rich merchants and poor beggars, will use the same musclebound body type.

 

[Kaako]

Sure, I'll play this.

 

[racemixing]

Not sure of this race:

 

[lethial]

Why do they always makes Elves\Dark Elves these lameo assassins.

 

[Exuro]

fuuuuuuYEEEESSSS. a human that actually looks cool. my dude is gonna look so fucking awesome.

His ears make him look like an elf rather than human.

 

[MaddenNFL64]

The graphics look very good. I don't even get why people bitch. It looks leagues better than Oblivion.

Seeing this game in motion is glorious.

 

[EteRnal PAL]

His ears make him look like an elf rather than human.

Nah, those are human ears. Look at the wood elf or dark elf pic, now those are elf ears.

 

[PewPewK]

God they all look so much better than Oblivion...

I can't wait for the millions of mods that are going to come out for this game!

 

[knitoe]

Newegg has the game for $48 with promo code until 8/13/2011.

PC: EMCKBJH96
PS3: EMCKBJH97
X360: EMCKBJH98

 

[Boogdud]

Just what I said. Wasn't in Oblivion, having doubts it's in Skyrim.

Someone should tell all of those guards that arrested me in Oblivion that the loot I stole from the shops wasn't even there.

I was wronged!

edit notte: well nevermind I know what you mean now speevy. I agree

 

[Luthos]

People are seriously hating on these? ughhh... they look really good, I don't know why people are complaining.

Also, why do people not like the orc? I prefer these new ones to the Shrek-like orc of Oblivion.

 

[Ashkeloth]

Definitely miles better than Oblivion's terrible designs of "let's take a human face and then change it to be fatter = orc, skinnier and longer = elf etc."

Still not sure what Race I'm going for on my first playthrough though. I like stealth, but hate the idea of playing as a catman or talking lizard.

 

[we.are.the.armada]

Oh my god. So good looking!

My beautiful, lusty Argonian. I'll be creating you again my serpentine lovely. *hiss*

 

[nelsonroyale]

Haha, I remember my dad cracking up when I was playing oblivion because the characters looked so damn ugly...these are looking like a big improvement
