Has anyone else noticed that the Dragon's wings are translucent?!?

Now that is impressive lighting!

The real-time self-shadowing is amazing also. :celebration:


I am going to build myself a gaming PC just to play this game on it!

Will people quit complaining about the textures, water, etc.! The game is still 9 months away and Pete even said himself that the game is only halfway done! You guys remind me of the people that pirated a leaked beta version of Crysis 2 and they started complaining how it had bugs and needed fixing. Oh gee I wonder why!?

Anyone else notice the really awesome armour the guy is wearing in the scene with the ice Wraiths? Looks almost like Daedric to me.

Whoever said the textures look low res must be on something, Cause I just re watched the video in HD and it looked pretty damn good for consoles.

Lol no way, daedric = red/black with a demonic/volcanic styling. That my friend is most likely dwemer or elvish.

I was going through the video and randomly paused at this scene, and it made me smirk:

Holy damn.

I haven't posted a single time in this forum because I knew where I stood, and I knew how my opinions would be met. I take it all back after seeing that exhibition, and I honestly believe now that Skyrim will be a worthy successor to Morrowind.

Looks amazing, i hope the PC version is fantastic. But for me ive hoped the graphics would been better, anyway the gameplay and quest will be brilliant.

Actually, now that I think of it, the rapids aren't that bad, considering it might actually be more realistic than I thought. http://www.rainbowlodgecambodia.com/pics/Rainy_season_rapids.jpg don't look awesomely watery anyway, more of white and less of blue. Since we don't have a proper view of other waters, I'm optimistic that waters should turn out to be nice.

All that combat without two-handed weapons fuels my paranoia that they will be underpowered though.

That's enough negativity from me, I can't even believe I had negative thoughts after watching that trailer. The landscapes look gorgeous, and the giant looks imposing. Magic looks awesome, and the mace smashing the Draugr's head looks visceral. I'm hoping I'll be able to walk away from a Dragon encounter as unscathed as that Dovahkiin looked. :thumbsup:

And in the screen that shows the water, That is part of a waterfall. Even the waterfalls in Oblivion look like crap. But I'm sure ponds and lakes look gorgeous.

I'm not going to pre order it until some place puts it as a reasonable price. Who in their right mind would pay 60 dollars for a game? EA and Blizzard are trying to sell games for 60 bucks on STEAM now. How moronic is that? They see that lowering the price on steam gets them big sales! So what do they do? Jack up the price? Even when they don't have to pay distribution costs? It's asking for piracy.


You should stop complaining about paying $60 for a game. How about you check out the prices I as am Australian have to pay.

Yes, all my bodily fluids just went...lol

Anyhow, I think it looked really awesome. Would love to see more of trailers in the future of the fighting engine. In regards to graphics, it addressed my appetite in that department.

I wouldn't consider that gorgeous. :shrug:

I would. And it looks way better in motion to boot.

Looks amazing.. but I'm biased :P

Its a damn shame I'll be in the army while this game is released, I will send my older brother to get me a copy of the CE though!
