I just read this in a caption for a screenshot. I don't know if this has been confirmed yet, but now you know. Apparently it's not necessarily needed to navigate Skyrim, though.

There are always torches and similar in order to light a way for other races.
I'm glad that Khajiit got that ability since they are cats on two legs.

Yes, because they've played the entire game. :rolleyes:

Well it makes sense since they're cats

okay so khajiit still have the ability to see in the dark. question is is it passive like it should be or do you have to activate it like a spell?

hopefully passive

"Innate night-vision." I'm guessing it comes naturally. If it's anything like Oblivions, things will be more vivid and blue at night. If I recall right, it was a blue tint to the world?

I hope not, that thing was annoying as hell.

so its not a SPELL

great

'Natural night vision' sounds kinda oxymoronic, like 'jumbo shrimp', or 'southwestern style'. I mean, sure, cats and other creatures have enhanced nightvision, but no human can ever perceive just what a cat sees and how. I'd bet, since their retinae simply let more light in, there would be no single color accentuated like we see when using manmade nightvision goggles or how nighteye worked in Oblivion with the blue tint. Maybe that's what they mean by natural?

Seems in the process of arguing 'natural night vision' doesn't make sense, I've convinced myself of the opposite stance. Here's hoping that's what they mean 'cause it would be really cool!
