600+ hours of my life just cried out in terror, before being suddenly silenced.

Yeah. I mean, I will have to play through with an Orc, Dunmer, and Nord Barbarian all once each.

Is this the point that I mention the next Fallout will probably run on this engine?

 

[Xena]

Wow, the world looks gorgeous.

 

[ezekial45]

I hope your character can run in this game, and that it looks as good as the way that guy was running away from the dragon at the beginning of the trailer.

Yeah, they said sprinting was in the game.

Anyway, it looks really good. I could never get into Morrowind or Oblivion (i guess i'm more of a fallout guy), but this does look very exciting.

If anyone is interested in seeing/hearing more stuff about Skyrim's music and sound design, Game Informer had a nice 4-parter up a few months ago on the subject:

http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2011/01/14/the-sounds-of-skyrim.aspx

It's great stuff. They get into Jeremy Soule and the music in part 4. Shows how Soule wanted to incorporate the amazing Morrowind theme into Skyrim's, and my fucking god did he ever pull it off.

Thats probably a snipet of actual gameplay of your character running in first person.

 

[darkjedi187]

WOW!. Looks Incredible.

 

[sn00zer]

O_O

 

[Xater]

WOWZA!

It is really good looking. Well took them long enough to change engines.

 

[Blue Ninja]

I was gonna post this, but then I saw the trailer and my brain just exploded. Holy. Effin'. Shit.

Bethesda, I demand an MP3 of that music. I want Nords chanting in my ears wherever I go.

[I Am Now]

If that is PS3 footage... WHAT DOES PC LOOK LIKE

 

[Diablohead]

I hope the playable animations are greatly improved, much as I love oblivion and fallout 3 everything was so stiff and wooden, the animation from that trailer gives me hope.

 

[Zeliard]

Best piece of head-bobbing tech ever.

 

[JaseC]

That would be fantastic. We'll get the 3D Fallout entry we were expecting/hoping for with Fallout 3.

 

[Taiser]

reason to live +1

 

[Solo]

The heavy-breathing is what makes the running scene so good.

 

[wwm0nkey]

I really dont now if its youtube's encoding but the download version really does look day and night better.

 

[Gorgon]

I was a little unsure about this after Oblivion and Oblivion with Guns, but day one for sure.

Fallout 3 was good, fuck off. Oblivion sucked balls, true.

 

[Pinko Marx]

Gunna make me a Ganadalf character.

 

[babuchy]

really really wow!!!

 

[lilltias]

WOOOOOOOW. First The Witcher 2 and then THIS? We are in for a treat fellows.

What's out on the fighting in Skyrim? Heard it was a bit like Demon's Souls. If that's the case, then this will be the game of the fucking forever.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

Why are people complaining about DA2 here? That's a different sort of RPG, anyway.

 

[JaseC]

Hear that guys? No bump-mapping on roads. Shit game confirmed.

Try to remember that this is an open-world game.

That post was very clearly a joke.

Why are people complaining about DA2 here? That's a different sort of RPG, anyway.

Yeah, an RPG of the N64 variety. </rimshot>

 

[pulga]

First Elder Scrolls I buy? Looks like it.

 

[Stahsky]

When the music kicks into high gear, I just about nearly clapped irl.

I am all fucking over this. Bring on the collector's PC edition with useless gold coin and map that I'll buy anyway.

 

[Zeliard]

Fallout 3 was good, fuck off. Oblivion sucked balls, true.

Fallout 3 had its share of issues. New Vegas was a much better effort IMO.

Having said all that, Skyrim looks as good as one can hope. Can't wait for a true gameplay feed. Beth has been surprisingly liberal with revealing information on this game. We actually already know quite a bit.

 

[JoeBoy101]

THIS is what is getting me about this game. LOOK at the complexity in the world geometry. Bethesda has never created a world like this with depth, tiers, height, etc. That natural bridge is a brilliant example (and is that buildings on top of it?)

 

[blackMamba1187]

That looks fantastic.

 

[IonicSnake]

Hyped! Please make a NGP version!

 

[Gorgon]

Awsome dungeons, great combat animation. I'm hyped, man.

 

[tmacairjordan87]

Fallout 3 was good, fuck off. Oblivion sucked balls, true.

Both of them were really good...

 

[Dennis]

 

[subversus]

Now that's visually superhot.

 

[Fallout-NL]

Well, it looks good I guess. But all of these 'modern RPGs' have yet to live up to the promise of a modern RPG. Shouldn't you guys rein in the hype just a little?

 

[Lonesome_Raod]

This year blows my mind games wise. This however is the game I want over everything else. I'm hibernating til November guys.

 

[I Am Now]

I'm appalled so many of you haven't played Oblivion. Wtf?

 

[dankir]

HOLY BALLS!

 

[Gorgon]

Both of them were really good...

I don't have time for petty discussions. I have to watch the trailer again.

 

[Lonesome_Raod]

No.

 

[Blue Ninja]

I just watched it on my TV. Came all over again.

No.

I agree with the above statement.

 

[Pinko Marx]

NeoGAF.

Nah.

I loved their previous 3 games I don't see why this should be different.

 

[Sir Garbageman]

Looks amazing.

 

[Gorgon]

I'm appalled so many of you haven't played Oblivion. Wtf?

I played. It sucked. But Bethesda saw the light. Thank you God.

 

[klee123]

Day 1 on PC. The only correct platform to play Bethesda's games really.

True dat. You're missing out on so much without mods.

 

[Solo]

The assassinations look great.

 

[Cdammen]

The art direction is incredibly cool-looking, I very much like the nordic touch to buildings, weapons, armor, etc.

...and the tech looks really nice!

First part of that gif looks like something out of Assassin's Creed.

Also: dat world.
