I think It's gonna be the last "media" we're going to get until E3 (June) :( .... or am I wrong?

I hope so. Kinda get sick of some devs like Bioware giving away half the plot points and characters before the games even out, or the majority of movie trailers these days showing all the highlights in 30s.

I don't want too much too soon. In fact I don't really want to see much until the last weeks before release. I wouldn't mind some screen shots every few weeks though. :hubbahubba:

Agreed, I want them to stop revealing actual information about the game, but keep with screenshots and videos. I don't mind seeing small sections of the game in action, but I hate finding anything at all about the story.

Well, I hope not. I'm fairly confident we'll see some more screenshots and concept art before E3.

As for other info: agree with those saying that it's best to not have the story spoiled. But there is a middle ground, I think. For instance, Bethesda could give some general info about factions which wouldn't spoil their storylines. They could describe which factions would broadly suit which character types, or a bit about the general aims and agendas of various factions.

And then there's also a fair bit about the gameplay mechanics we don't know yet, so I wouldn't be surprised to see that still coming in drips and drabs... For instance, other details on stealth, various perks, enchanting, alchemy, crafting in general, etc.

Probably not actually. Pete said on the latest Bethesda podcast they are going to be showing off Skyrim at Pax East. (march 11th - 13) I'm sure their presentation is going to be more than just showing the gameplay trailer again.

Nooo, I hope not as two people are out of a job if this is true... or maybe frozen in the cellar until needed.

Honestly it's the dawn of march coming up, I'm not sure when in june E3 is, but four months is both a good sign and bad.
Good because the amount on offer will be greater, bad as it'll leave a couple of slow months of speculation that everyones already talked about.

I seem to recall a tweet or something a little while ago saying that Skyrim wouldn't be shown at Pax East... So have they changed their mind?

:rofl: That relates around DA:2's release, exactly for the european date.
Wild speculation here but I'd love fisty cuffs at dawn over my dragons better than yours.

Part of the reason I enjoyed Oblivion so much was I knew very little about the game, as I was new to The Elder Scrolls (I have now played them all). If I had known too much about the game's storyline, characters, quests... I know i wouldn't have enjoyed it as much without the surprise factor. I hope to still have some things to discover for myself in Skyrim.

Please anyone associated with Bethesda don't reveal any more about the storyline. I already know too much.

Edit- Although I would like to see some non nord npcs
