A few extra details for your list Dan


The shout Todd starts to say when he's cut off is 'Whirlwind Sprint' - well I think that's what he says.


He also intimates it can be of any depth too. "We just make a piece of art once and you say how much snow it has on it..."

What does he mean by "You"?

The dynamic snow function.

I don't think he means depth by it, but the density of snow.

People must also understand that when grown men are talking about dragons for more than 30 seconds, it's bound to becomes a bit ridiculous.

:rolleyes: Everyone complaining about Geoff Keighley should take some journalism classes/internships and try facilitating an interview firsthand... It's not anywhere near as easy as you think, especially when you have to ask questions about a very specific subject and your job covers an extremely broad field. Also keep in mind that this is the unedited, raw interview... This is very smooth and efficient compared to many other interviews I've seen. Geoff did a fine job all things considered.

Could he have done a bit more research? Sure.
Would it have changed any of Todd's answers? I highly doubt it.

Though there isn't really anything new here, it's a nice and informative summation of the things we do know, coming straight from the top of the company ladder. Can't ask for much more than that...

It ceratinly wasn't the worst in last week's batch of interviews. But for someone to deem this interview great, well that just goes to show how wildly varied opinions can get. And that's a good thing.

We did learn something from the interview!

There are more factions in Skyrim, which they'll be talking about at E3.

I see...I didn't see those a week ago. I think you and I are coming at it from different places too. I know I'm hanging here for a bit but I really don't want to know too much. I want to find it for myself when I play. It's going to be an exciting 6 months and an almost unbearable 7th month.

:tes:

I thought it was a pretty good interview, some new info and it wasn't near as bad as their discussion without Todd a few days back. The whole "accessibility" thing was put to rest.

im not gonna watch it the 2 minutes i seen that guy on tv was already more than i could take hes like a living adoring fan

I think the only time I have enjoyed a Geoff Keighley interview is when he was grilling Molyneux about Fable 3 and it seemed like he was getting under his skin.

Too be fair, a great interview would have had tons of information flowing out of Todd about the game but a great interview is rare for anything, good is basically as good as your going to get and Geoff did a good interview, he got some information out that others didn't (even though the player firebreathing was all but confirmed), that's better than many. Plus he also got some information about what we will see at E3 also, good interview to me.

Charlie Sheen would have done a better job interviewing Todd than this guy. "Can you throw snow balls?"..."can the dragonborn make snow angels?"....seriously?

The only reason Charlie Sheen cares about Skyrim is because he heard the word "snow" and thought back to the days before rehab. :tongue:

This makes me want to watch it now!

The lighting and the textures were better...

I guess I didn't really make myself clear. I never said they pump out an Elder Scroll game every year. What I meant was that currently they are fousing on stories in a single region everytime they get out a game. It is more like an intro to the culture and land in each game. What I was hoping was that there was Bigger Picture connecting all the events and every thing that we were doing in the Universe was leading to something larger than waht we were led to each game. >.>

Also I do understand that they are not only redoing the UI for the PC but also giving a bigger texture pack. What I meant was that initial development in console usually sets the bar as high in graphics as the console with the lowest processing power allows with a few more perks here and there for better platforms. Wasn't really ranting that this is a console port

"Random spawn, with good loot. A yellow sled."

Oh Todd. Makes nerds cool.

More factions? I like the sound of that.

Trying to watch, net going slow.....stupid net. Sounds good so far. How cool is Todd.

:rofl:

It's crazy how terrible the aired edited interview was, considering that the full interview was actually not too bad.

that was before he found moon sugar and skooma

Geoff: Dragon DLC?

Todd: We'll think about that when we're done with this game.

Seriously he looked like he was trying to start Geoff on fire with his mind.

Todd was charging a Falcon Punch. I saw his anger.

On a serious note, asking about fire breathing dragons?

You'd have thought the least he could do before interviewing Mr Howard, was to watch the trailer.
