?You can save anywhere. We don’t do checkpoints. We now have a 3 autosave system though.
?Yes, there are children. No, you can’t hurt or kill them.
?[autosaves] alternates between 3 slots. You set time interval (5, 10, 15, etc) as well as if it saves on sleep, wait, etc.
?No, there is no hardcoe mode.
?Finishing moves happen randomly. They aren’t under the player’s control whether you see them, or which ones you see.
?On Music: Yes, there is a lot of everything. There is hours (plural) of music [by Jeremy Soule] here.
?We don’t do deformable terrain. Creating a beautiful, seamless outdoor world w/ no loads is hard enough as it
?On crafting enchanted armor and weapons: You can buy them or create them yourself. DIY is certainly cheaper. May or may not be better than what you’ve found.
?You can put weapons or magic in either hand. You can only equip shields and torches in your left hand. Bows as well.
?Yes, settings determine how hard enemies are. [Difficulty] adjusts some based on your level and it’s more of a range.
?Subtitles for everything in the game. As with our previous games.
?Yes, there is button mapping

now i feel like a dike. sorry OP. and thanks.

Thank you for the "new" information.

:facepalm:

F-F-F-Face! Pallllllm!

None of this is New.

Lazygamer is apparently too lazy to read any Skyrim info.

Some of it was new to me, most of it was common knowledge every would expect be in.

Might be new to him guys he is just trying to help don't be a [censored]

You guys above me need to calm down and be glad someone bothered to even contribute something. Just because you knew of something doesn't mean everyone else did. Thanks for a few points that I hadn't seen yet, OP.

Give the guy a break, eh?


Thank you for that short list of facts, Happy Man. Some were new to me.

ehhhh

did I just see this thread yesterday??!!!

I wasn't trying to be, sorry if it came off like that, OP.

The article was posted today. With a lot of common sense things and things that have been known since January.

relax people sheggy just decided to mess with us by stating the obvious.

Couldn't of said it better myself.

Thanks for the info. Some of it was new to me.

Also, under the 'no deformable terrain' bullet, you might want to add that that includes 'no footprints in snow,' as well (said by Pete on Twitter).

I couldn't read this because my eyes kept drifting to your avatar...

Its kinda of hard to tell whats new or not. Why do these forums always go ape [censored] when someone posts something not new?

I wish they did something similar to Uncharted 2 snow. That snow was friggin amazing.

I think it's a mixture of people feeling good about being more informed than others, and a +1 post count. That's just a guess though.

Anyways, while I did know most of this, thank you for sharing. But speaking of the soundtrack, is that song playing during the mammoth area in the "new" gameplay footage the same as a Morrowind track?

It's been remastered :hubbahubba:

So old I typed in Comic Sans.

Weird... I thought the title said "new". (sorry)

Some people might be upset they re-used old tracks, but this actually just saved me some time. As I was figuring on adding the music from MW and OB to Skyrim's music folder.

Beware, people around here don't like console games being brought up :wacko:
But I agree I thought the snow was good when it first came out.

On topic: A few things listed were new to me so its not a complete waste of a thread

You see "New" in the title and you have a winning lottery ticket. You go to cash in the ticket (Click on thread), and when you get there its a fake ticket (Nothing new).

Thats how I explain it. In other words we are obsessed with Skyrim and get demoralized and enraged.
