Im curious and need to know.

Bethesda's job is to keep me from knowing until 11/11/11.

The civil war has to deal with the story, which is something BGS and Todd Howard won't spoil.

Dragons are a completely new combat feature that will completely change the way we play and react to the game. If they are as great, menacing, and non-scripted as BGS claims them to be, we are truly in for a treat.

We've heard a lot of talk about the dragons, certainly, but that's because they're the main focus of the game's story, it's only natural. Bethesda isn't going to put the focus on the civil war because I can think we can safely assume that's either just a background for the actual main story, or it will provide the player with factions similar to Morrowind's great houses in the form of the sides in the civil war, and if that's the case, then it's only natural that we wouldn't hear much about it since Bethesda has so far not gone into much detail on the factions in the game, it seems like they're saving that for later.

Though I wouldn't mind getting more information that's not related to the dragons, I suppose, I like dragons as much as anyone, but it seems to me that there's only so much Bethesda can tell us about dragons before it basically becomes the same information being repeated in different ways, and I think we've reached that point. Now, I'm sure Bethesda hasn't told us everything there is to know about Skyrim's dragons, but they're not going to do so before the game's release, I think, because they wouldn't want to spoil the whole plot. Therefore, I want to hear more about something we don't know but Bethesda can afford to spoil.

Not really. gamesas knows how to manage their games and I dont think they have shown enough. How many dragon fights have we seen? None


Ever watch the gameplay trailer? Or are you going to tell me I just imagined all those parts with the Dovahkiin fighting a dragon?

The dragons also are part of the story, though, and judging from what we've heard of it so far, play a much greater role than the civil war does, and I'm inclined to trust that. Bethesda isn't going to promise dragons and instead give us a story where dragons are in the background and the important part is actually on a conflict that seems to have nothing to do with them.

They are doing coverage on the dragons and shouts a little too much, but in their defense dragons are the primary villains of the game. If i remeber correctly their was a [censored] load of coverage on Daedra when OB was announced.
