You can see insects buzzing around a flower as the camera gets closer and salmons jumping in streams(Lots of details)

Animations are now a lot smoother and natural

Theres a frost spell that slows the enemy

Books now also tell about the enemies weaknesses and strengths

Caves now look more "organic"

Ah, good. I no longer need to check the Wiki while playing

Cool

I love the books part. I hate insects in real life lol, I hope I can fireball them

But I guess they are only scenery, yes?

In Finland you don't need to live in Helsinki to be in contact to the rest of the world :thumbsup:

The new info you brought us is quite intriguing. The animations sector is old news but rest is new. Thanks for the info.

I'm not sure about the spell though. Todd said they want dragon shouts to be unique and not clash with magic effects, thus a dragon shout time slow and a time slow spell is something Todd doesn't want to be in the game..?

Hehe. I wouldn't call Finland cosmopolitan either but it isn't just some swampland in middle of nowhere. We have some civilization.. :celebration:

A Dragonshout? Or is that "just" to slow the whole surrounding time, making it a Max Payne slomo for cooler view and accurate aim?

So will there be two spells slowing things down?

They might have actually been talking about the shout. When translations happen, there is often room for misinterpretation. Usually it's the magazine's own fault.

Or, it could be the bullet time perk that has been discussed not that long ago (where aiming a bow slows down time a bit to give you a longer time to line up shots more precisely)

more organic caves eh! Great now I won't get a dreadful sense of de ja vu in every cave that I enter!

Nope, it's a frozen wasteland in the middle of nowhere. Now if you'll excuse me, a polar bear is eating my dog. Again :shakehead:

:P

Maybe i'll have to buy copy of that, though personally i prefer the "Pelit" magazine.

ohoo wait I read wrong.Yeah its a spell alright but it freezes the enemy and then goes slower.

Your comment made me laugh! :teehee:

I personally prefer Gamereactor. It's even free of charge!

Ok what is this,some kind of Finland thread?Ive never seen so many finns comment in one thread!

» Thu May 19, 2011 6:44 am

I think this is all old info from the old gameplay presentation to the press...

And I also prefer Pelit, they have more experienced writers than the still new Pelaaja magazine.

I hadn't read the insect or book stuff before.

I think this was mentioned in another interview as well, but also very cool to hear!
