My PAX demo experience (SPOILERS)

Post » Thu Sep 01, 2011 3:28 am

GiantMudcrab, you are a credit to the team.

Can you look into racial bonuses and racial specific animations maybe? It's low priority so do whatever you gotta do.

Check out NPC interaction and interacting with objects and stuff like smithing or alchemy or something Stop and smell the roses so to speak and check out the little details.


This please. Everyone has seemingly been so focused on killing pretty much everything in sight, but I'd prefer to know more about the quality of the dialogue and voice acting/if there's any recognizable voice actors, how the NPC's conversations with each other are and how reactive the NPCs are and things in that vein.

Any requests for today? I'm going back but I'm not gonna wait in line again. I'll just check out people playing.

look for race specific animations and if anyone runs into any vampires study those as well. also i think you should put in some time playing today and give us details on what can be customized in character creation. also try to get to markarth side.

Can you attack with both dual wielded weapons at the same time? iF not, it seems like a waste.

This is disappointing news. It seems to defeat the purpose if I have to devote a finger on my trigger to maintaining a Shield spell when I want to be in combat. If this is the case, then I guess I won't be using Alteration in Skyrim.


I for one am highly glad you can choose the duration now by actively being able to choose turning it on and off with the hold of a key/button.

I've been waiting for such a thing since Morrowind.

Did anyone get arrested? Im really curious as to the reaction of guards, the ol' "Stop right there criminal scum!" Was funny and all but what do the guards in Skyrim say? Are they annoying?

Hmm I wonder if there will be actual fishing (rod and lure) in Skyrim. I can understand grabbing with hands out of a river, but doing that in a huge body of water seems a bit stretched. Also if you get a chance....you should go jump into that lake we see in Todd's demonstration that's behind the marker stones :P I'm assuming you'll find larger fish there, maybe too big to realistically catch with your hands. Also how deep can you swim, is it really dark and murky like oblivion's water, or can you see clearly?

I didn't know you could attack with both together *facepalm*... But I also didn't notice anyone else doing it and none of my friends did either so I would like to see footage of that.

In the limited time I spent by skyrim today (had to see other games) I didn't see anyone really using third person or talking to any argonians. And it was all happening to fast when they would see one for me to notice (people were mainly sprinting through to kill everything).

All in all today I only caught glimpses now and then and really focused more on enjoying my last day at PAX. We'll have to wait until november to see the rest.
