I was looking up info on Skyrim and happened to notice an article that said Skyrim will be built off the same engine that powered FO3 and Oblivion, WTF, Bethesda. The FO3 engine will be 3 years old by the time Skyrim is released, and everyone knows that engine is glitchy and has not half the graphics capabilities of up-to-date engines, if Bethesda actually has the balls to do this, possibly thousands of fans, possibly including me, will not buy this game, and it will not be able to compete with current games, especially RAGE, there is no way Bethesda can keep going on like this. I know that graphics are definitely not the most important aspect of an RPG, but there will be games that are just as good if not better than Beth's games with much better graphics, and Bethesda will go bankrupt and fade away, I hope they aren't this ignorant, Bethesda better make a damn good game if they're gonna use an engine thats been old for 2 years.

PS: tell me if this is not true please, i have a feeling i might just earn a reputation as the biggest idiot on the forums.

Not true, time for lock.

It's not true. New engine, confirmed several times in several places.

Link the source? I doubt it's true, I highly highly highly doubt it. I also hope it's not true o.o

They've claimed that it's a new engine, but it may have a few lingering elements from the previous games. I'm sure it's going to look great and I can't wait to see it!

phew, that's a relief

Lolno.

Its a highly modified Gamebryo engine. they said that it looks like a totally new console, time will tell.
