Where the hell are people getting daedric armour from in that flame pic?

Let me tell you,that is not daedric armour,nor is the helmet. Your being fooled by the fire. It's old tattered armour from what seems like a draugr boss....i'll repeat...that is not daedric armour.
I'll bet my life on it,mark these words.

Why do you assume its Daedric armour? It said nothing about being Daedric armour. That thing was most likey a dragur warlord which was spoken of. If you look close you can tell its an undead.

Yeah, I would hazard a guess that it is the undead Dragon (or was it Draugr?) Priest that the magazines reported being encountered within the Falls Bleak Barrow, on the demo they were shown earlier. Nothing really points that the other possibility as moot though; the artistic change for the armor from what was shown in Daggerfall to Morrowind's was particularly striking enough after all.

Hey, was that picture you were talking about in the PSM info threads of the blackish Yeti outside an icy cave actually in PSM, or did you see it somewhere else? It was the one I was most excited to see, but sadly it hasn't been posted anywhere.

If you look at the picture of the Bearded Nord Male with the Giant War hammer...if you look at his hand at the bottom of the Hammer its all jacked up.
The bottom of the hammer is coming through his hand.

This is the type of stuff I was hoping to not encounter in Skyrim since it was so prevalent in Oblivion.

It's funny because the caption for that image is about how everything is hand-touched for perfection.

Well, I feel silly now that I've seen better quality and more screens. Just went out and got the magazine (quest in and of itself to find the thing) and practically took a magnifying glass to the images. By the Gods, they are beautiful. But, my point of me being an idiot, I'm one of those somewhat worried about the talk of severely reduced armor slots.

Pouring over the armor, most you can't really tell one way or the other but there are two with different tops and the same bottoms, judging by the belt details, stud placement, fur, and stitching. On page 57 of PSOM the Conan-looking guy with his back to us is wearing the exact same greaves as the big picture on page 50 where a leather cuirass is seen (in fact the same outfit as the background of this very forum) insead of a He-Man harness. Or at least the belt and white-ish fur is the exact same, so unless they're giving belts a slot I can safely assume it's the same bottom.

Proof of more slots than feared or proof of several variations of armor types? That scaled cuirass we've seen so much of seems to have a different pauldron every time it's shown. Either way, I'm calling myself an over-reacting ninny.

There's my bit of self-deprecating hysteria over with, time to sit back and enjoy everyone else's on the internet. I, at least, can breath now.

chill.


Yeah man, what he said was totally outrageous and full of anger.

:facepalm:

Anyway, does anyone else think the guy rushing towards us with the downturned-horn helmet is an Imperial? He has those darker eye and eyebrow features and a wide nose that seems slightly more Mediterranean than the Nords.

That female redguard seems to have trollbone, and a metal headband. The Khajiit in the screenshots had one of those aswell. I wonder of they are part of character creation...

Not a Redguard, you'll know a Redguard when you see one.

Just had the chance to read the article. It's confirmed that clothing will be Fallout style. One-piece suits (not individual pieces) that are upgradable/enchantable. I was kinda disappointed about that, but I'll wait and see how they implement the upgrading system before writing it off completely.

Doesn't seem like Daedric armor, more like a normal draugr with the generic metal armor and an helmet with upward horns.

You know, guys - I think by clothing they mean ACTUAL CLOTHING, not armour.

Remember the robes in Oblivion? They only had that one slot.

Relax.
