Yeah, the woman at the counter looks so weird because of the horrible quality. I don't think Dunmer are going to be mouthless.

The shadow under her "chin" still seems far too sharp to be, well, a shadow under her chin. Still think it may be an Arena Argonian. Her fingers are looking rather unkempt and claw-like, but again, we can't tell with this trailer's quality.

Would certainly be a radical change. I suggested Daggerfall-style Khajiit once and people jumped all over me. :dance:

I think it is an Altmer. The Black Eyes could be because of shadows. But that's just my guess.

Watch this video of the other elf. Look at how much her face changes. That lack of anti-aliasing creates these distortions.

I honestly like all of the iterations of the Argonians. My hope for Khajiit is that, regardless of the subspecies, they'll look fuzzy and "cuddly" like our buddy S'Rathra from Redguard as seen http://uesp.net/wiki/File:Redguard-SRathra.gif. Seriously, wouldn't you love to hug that guy? The Khajiit need to look more like cats and less like the people from Cats.

Actually, yes they did. Listen to the Todd Howard podcast @ GI. They removed the old method of creating your character. You'll now pick already generated noses, eyes, mouths, etc. They used the same method to create the NPCs. That way, they can have finer control over how each race turns out.

Yeah, but didn't they say after you chose a preset, that you could basically tweak it to your specifications? I thought they had. Grr, I don't want to listen to the podcast again. x (
Do you know how long into the podcast it was exactly? Because I would swear that's how it was, and if so, it sounds awfully similar to the way that Sims 3 does theirs.

It's going to be like Mass Effect and Dragon Age.
