Next Hubdate

Post » Thu Apr 07, 2011 11:31 pm

They should at least show some screenshots and/or concept art on what the races will look like; and how they look different from each other. Does anyone agree with me? :thumbsup:

My piece of mind demands I hear from Emil but i know that won't be until after release cause he'll be talking heavily about design choices and it'll give away too much.

Next hubdate will be an interview with the director of the marketing department, and how they hype their games. Calling it now. ;)


Wow...That would tick me off <_<

I know what you mean... or at least I think I do. The game is slowly being spoiled for me before my very eyes, but my curious inner Elder Scrolls fanatic is making me look. :(

Dude you should really remove or at least rephrase the part about probable screenshots. You cannot reasonably deduce that there is a good chance of screenshots coming Monday. What you can deduce is that there is a degree of possibility that screenshots may come as soon as Monday, based on .

The sentence you currently have is based on faulty logic but you did not state how you made the conclusion, so most people that read it will just assume it to be true, and then if/when we don't get screenshots on Monday, many people will be very disappointed.


As for what I'd like to see in the next few updates...

? I like the idea of guild info, suggested by the poster above me. How many guilds are in the game? How will guild advancement work? What sort of changes have been made from Oblivion's system? What benefits come with being in guilds? etc.
? Some more info on the magic system. It sounds like they've changed it quite a bit... They could detail new spells, discuss animations, spell layering, the spell creation system, the spell page in the inventory, etc. Can we delete/rename spells? Is there a more intuitive menu for sorting through spells? How do they balance the spells? What happens to the displaced Mysticism spells? What about Enchanting? etc.
? More info on the dragon shouts. Are these the same as Thu'um or something new? How are they performed? Exactly how many are there, how are they unlocked, what do they do? etc.
? Perks. Ways of unlocking them (outside of leveling up), some examples? Racial perks? Skill-based? Quest rewards?
? Dungeons. I'd love to hear about different types of dungeons, how big they are, how they vary, what kind of creatures we'll find, looting, boss level enemies, etc.
? More details on the crafting, cooking, woodcutting, etc. How do they fit into the game? Are they tied to skills, perks, something else? Is there any sort of progression with them? What can the player do with those features?
? Info on NPCs. How many in the game? How many voice actors? How do reputation and disposition affect conversation paths?

Agreed...."soon enough" doesn't = "probably" Monday

How about some info on the bounty/crime system.....if we steal a spoon in a small village tavern by accident, do the guards on the other side of Skyrim try to kill us on sight? I understand the "ESP" in OB wasn't really that....most people forget that fast travel is NOT the same thing as mark/recall or teleporting.....it takes TIME to fast travel, so the news could have traveled that far before you did, but guards in another city attacking [or even giving a s**t] for minor theft???

I'm certain spell making is in but the quietness about it is making me nervous. :sweat:

I'd also like to know about that and also maybe how large is the number of creatures we have in the game. :spotted owl:
Man, I couldn't that sentence properly.

I need some new screens. Or maybe a video? I doubt we'll see a video for quite some time, but one can hope. I've looked at the gameinformer screens about ten million times. I'd like to see some new one's via a hub update but it doesn't look as though they are showing as much as they said they would.

These guys are gods amongst men. I'm worried that this is going to turn into a drug problem though, getting my Skyrim fix almost every day. We'll have to go cold turkey when this month of coverage ends...

Worth it.

Good to hear. I hope it cheers me up. Much as I like the news that it will snow in Skyrim, I hate it in the real world.
