Question about the gameplay trailer

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 6:05 pm

During the trailer around 1:14 to 1:22 there are two towns shown, one burning at night, and the other normal during the day. I looked at the land marks and designs, and they look like the same town! Is it the same town and if so, how do you like the new destroyable towns?

Edit: Lock please i was mistaken.

Yeah the town isn't burning, it's just fires lighting the streets.

They have said you can do things like, burn down the mill, thus impeeding the towns farming ability and economy. But I don't think you can just burn down the whole town. Also, those are hearth's burning, not buildings.

I thought the first city shot was of Markath? Isn't the one with the windmill Whiterun? And the shot with the pc walking in thw town with that water mill is Riverwood. Which city is the one with that dragon architecture?

No, it goes like this:

City 1 = Markarth
City 2 = Windhelm
City 3 = Whiterun
City 4 = Solitude
City 5 = Riverwood

Yes, it's been revealed that Whiterun is built on top of an outcrop, making it raised. That is why you can't see any background scenery.

So the city is going to be raised? How high do you think? Also, the city with the windmill and that large rock formation jutting out is Solitude?

There's already a nice thread discussing the towns, should move this discussion there.

We need more screenshots or footage to know for sure. The city with the windmill is Solitude since its the only city next to the ocean.

I love that rocky structure that is jutting out in the Solitude shot. It looks like Whiterun is really high up though doesn't it? It looked like a city in the sky?
