The concept art is incredible.

Hmmm... well, there's some interesting information there... nothing exciting, but it's at least informative.

LOVED the update!

Can't wait to playyyyyyy :cry:

i like how the release date looks like it can fit in the dragon alphabet

11.11.11

Loved the concept arts, the distant dragon screenshot, and the proof that I was right about Dragon Shouts from the beginning. It sounds like Morrowind all over again: Changes that are improvement by addition.

It was cool, and I didn't really expect anything more - but I'm really, really looking forward to the next trailer. It'll be great to use these things with my warrior!

Awesome update, could have been a bit more specific over some effects of the shouts, but who am I to complain with concept art like that?

Dragon Shouts!

Woot!

Looking forward to these, by the sounds of it we collect the three words by killing dragons and reading them off walls. So 60 words in all to find, scattered about.

"Over time, players will build a vast arsenal of shouts: over 20 complete shouts in all, each with multiple words that must be gathered from different places around the world"

I really hope they are at the bottom of the deepest darkest dungeons, filled with traps and mega-monsters

WE CAN SUMMON OUR OWN DRAGON!?!?!? :mage:

What do you mean

» Fri May 13, 2011 11:15 am

It said "the amount of time you hold down the shout button is how many words come out"...I thought it had to be three words so why would you hold it down for only one or two?

The way they are handling the Dragon Shouts seems like a simplified version of the Rune based magic system in Arx Fatalis. Which was produced by Arkane which I once read were picked up by Zenimax. So hopefully more Arx Fatalis features are implemented.

Bet he won't be happy about it, but that was in the main article in the physical magazine, that you speak a word of command and force it to your side.

EDIT:@ Bryghtside: I mean I was right that Dragon Shouts were Thu'um in their older form, just like Dragonguards are to the Blades. Morrowind added to the scant information we had about the province, and it seems Skyrim will do the same.

It was okay

, though I like the sound update most thus far

» Fri May 13, 2011 9:46 am

I'm really looking forward to translating the legends on the walls that they mentioned. I'm probably going to become fluent in the dragon language through playing the game.

According to the GI article, yes.

Good concept art, and awesome article. I can not wait to translate me some Nordic epics.

» Fri May 13, 2011 7:52 am

I can't wait to play the game, ever ounce of information pouring out of bethesda is making me drooool omg I can't wait! This is such a good year for gaming, oh the happiness of days!

» Fri May 13, 2011 9:52 am

Mmm, recycling old info.

» Fri May 13, 2011 5:10 pm

Read it. Loved it. Want it.

It sounds like they're going in the right direction with these dragon shouts.
So, hyping up the next update yet? :thumbsup:

Well I'm sorry that my issue of GI still has yet to arrive in stores for me... :sadvaultboy:
