Since theres been some more Elder Scrolls 4 talk today... here's an interview that I dont think has been posted here yet.

A while ago we said that - when on the E3 - we did an interview with Gavin Carter and Ashley Cheng. It has taken us a while to take care of a few problems with our material, but now we are done. I hope you will enjoy these exclusive interviews with two of Elder Scrolls: Oblivion's producers.

details from teamxbox forums

Gavin Carter:
1): There will be at least one buyable house in each of the nine major cities. These houses will cost a lot of gold, and be brokered through a sort of real-estate agent. For example, in one town, you have to clear out a haunted house and then restore it.

3): Brooms, spades, shovels, etc... will not be operable
4): Eating will not be compulsory

7): There will be infamous and famous ratings. If you are infamous, people will stay away from you. In both cases, quests might open up.

20): Some items (tables, etc...) will be bolted down. Strength will play an important role in what you can or cannot move.
21): NPC's will fall down.
22): CS is similar to MW's. You will be able to generate forests. You pick your parameters, what you want in it and then you press "generate. This doesn't just imply forests, it implies landscape, area's.
any kind of area can be made with this, not just forests.-Alex)

Yeesh, seems like it would be easier to just release a transcript. Anyone?...Anyone? =P

EDIT:

Thanks Cerrius

 

[flarkminator]

So fucking downloading its not even funny

Edit: That second guy seemed to forget at the end the concept of speaking clearly
I'm excited about blowing crap up with fireballs, but what I really want to know is how in depth the enchanting system is this time around. That has always been my favorite feature of TES games. It was what made me play Daggerfall so many times.

3): Brooms, spades, shovels, etc... will not be operable

That sucks. It was cool finding items like a fishing pole or musical intrument in MW, but ultimately you couldn't do anything with them.

Quite a few disappointing things in there, actually.

654k/sec.... be done in around 10 min. Thank god for canadian's HighSpeed internet penetration !

 

[Discharger]

I'm happy for any new info on this game I can get. Hopefully there's some good stuff in this.

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

I'm so hyped for this game, Morrowind didn't resonate with me well

 

[Hitler Stole My Potato]

11): Some NPC's (Casius Cosades) might make an appearance.

I hope he's wearing a shirt this time. No more man titties!

 

[SteveMeister]

I hope he's wearing a shirt this time. No more man titties!

I guess that'll depend if he's given up his Skooma habit

 

[StoOgE]

I figured Cauis would be in the game, I mean he was recalled from Morrowind because of the fall of the king. Hope they make some reference to the Nerevar and losing territory in Morrowind.
