My favorite feature in Skyrim is…?

I was impressed with a lot of new information coming out about Skyrim. It is hard to pick the best feature, but I wanted to highlight a few that really stand out for me. I even made a video about it. =) http://www.sessera.com/Gaming_blog_Ep3.html I hope dev don’t mind the link.
I want to know what are your favorite features so far? Please don’t say nothing, or everything . Name one or 2 or 3 at most feature that you like the most and why. (best thing u like: like 3d items view of items, or different leveling system. Skyrim only please)

Ps. I know not all of the information is out, but from what we know so far.

With this post I want to highlight the best stuff in Skyrim and to thank Dev for doing so much hard work. <3

It's not really a feature but just a new world to explore.

I'm gonna like the sprint feature.
Also being able to increase magicka to a level where I can actually cast spells like crazy.

Could do well with Morrowind graphics as long as the RPG mechanics are good enough for me to roleplay with.
Good graphics is only a bonus with a game really.

It might not be much but i'm really looking forward to all this cooking, woodcutting and farming stuff, I think it'll make the game very immersive.

Dark elves, of course! :D Oh, and the new overhauled magic system looks so awesome. I am really looking forward to having a new open world to explore too, I mean I think I've explored every inch of Cyrodiil so I'm craving someplace new. :)

I think the duel wielding will be a really big one for me and probably most of the other fans to, but also the fact we get an enchanting skill back to =D thats going to be great. And companions will be a nice add tot eh game as well so I'm happy with whats to come.

Favorite feature exclusively added to Skyrim?

Definitely the re-done leveling system. From what they've said it's going to really capture the "Do what you want" Elder Scrolls mentality. The past games since Daggerfall had a good concept but they really ended up punishing you for focusing on your class skills. Now they've seemingly solved that and it seems like this is how it should have always been honestly.

I like that people don't look like potatoes anymore. And beards.

Beards.


The new world of course, and new combat mechanics. It's got a lot of promise.

while graphics dont make everything they are very important, there is like 100 people on the forum that freaked out becuase of the water, and people that arn't ES fanatics wont buy a game with that bad of graphics

my favorite is a tie between everything, there is really nothing I dont like, maybe not being able to combine spells but thats it

OMG! I was one of those people especially that part where "ES fanatics wont buy a game with that bad of graphics". Yes! Yes! and Yes again! While i will admit that a game can be good with crappy graphics, i can't play it.

I give 5 stars to oblivion for good graphics and 6 stars for making better graphics in skyrim.

The whole combat overhaul looks like it will be amazing, and dragons of course, probably the best inclusion of dragons in game history, as it looks at the moment.

Arguably that would be the wrong use of the word Immerse.
It does do more for Role Playing and role playing does more for Immersion, in a sense.
I've been pushing for these features in Skyrim for years. So yeah, I'm excited.
I'm happy for Dwemer Ruins return(thats not really a feature) and I'm pleasantly surprised by the Dragon Shout and Finishing Move Features.

Really like that not all creature's are set to "attack on site" mode.

"Skyrim is going to be a slightly less dangerous landscape to negotiate this time around. Rather than initiating a zany chase every time you wander near the local wildlife, many of the creatures (including giants) will simply ignore you unless you give them a reason to attack. Certain breeds are permanently pissed off, though, so don't go trying to shake hands with a frost spider."


I'm excited about new leveling system and unique dungeons.

Also, hope that Dark Elves aren't as puny, they really got a downgrade between Morrowind and Oblivion.

Meh, I love playing old games so I can't see why someone would not buy a game because of bad graphics.
But whatever, guess that a game looking pretty is far more important than actually being good. :laugh:

Thats why there are few good games out there. Some are good, with crappy graphics, others have good graphics, but a crappy game all around.

C'mon guys there got to be more people who have favorite features in Skyrim. Share them with us, don't be stingy! =)
