I'm curious what they're going to do with the landscape. According to lore (and common knowledge for anyone who's visited Bruma), Skyrim is a cold, mountainous region. Which means it's unlikely we'll see any of the lush green landscapes we're used to in Oblivion. That's assuming the game takes place solely in Skyrim. If parts of the bordering regions are included we could see some interesting variety with desert wastelands, temperate forests and perhaps a bit of the alien landscapes of Morrowind. As for Skyrim itself, I can't imagine we'll see very much plant life beyond trees. Maybe they're going for a more thematic approach as opposed to the mixed bag we got with Oblivion.
