we need a video

the game informer thing doesnt give us enough information


1: it says charecters are better, one attractive nord girl doesnt realy show us anything aside from the seams are gone. charecters could have a locked age and every single charecter could be beautiful- or use preset head models- or could lack the beards and tattoos we deserve, on a positive note we could have something awsome like body morphing- but how could we know?

2: again- they only showed the nord race. it doesnt realy help us decipher if dark elves have bad skin and morrowind voices, or if khajits have bent legs and an actual catlike apearance. although it says there are 10 races- what about daedra? do dremora have their own race again? are argonians going to brave the coldness of skyrim?

3: we dont know about how many pieces of armour there are, or if spears and crossbows are back!

4: (aside from mysticism) we dont know what skills have been dropped, and what skills have been added

5: we dont know what combat or spells look like aside from the fact that you use 2 hands (LEVITATION and super jumping- do we have kicking)

6: we dont know how big the world is, nor do we know if the compas is back or fast traveling

7: a fallout style leveling system IS an improvement over oblivion- but how would it work in such a rich lore that tes has?in fallout it seemed less rediculous because guns are guns. a fallout system in skyrim could mean that at level 20 either every enemy is wearing steel or daedric, and nothing imbetween. does daedric not apear until the player is a certain level again? does it apear in random loot? if i travel into a vampire cave do i have to run away as soon as i see a vampire or do i fight it because its either a lower level or the same level, rather than 20 levels better?

7: engine wise-the few screenshots given only show that we have better textures and foliage, aswell as better charecters,lighting and weather effects. that doesnt cover anything (its the main things we want, but anyway
it doesnt cover
-what water looks like
- how good the particle system is (for spells)
- if we have tessellation / dx11 support
- if we have some nice colouring shaders
- if we have some other nice shaders
- if we have volumetric lighting (god rays- i hope we do, but i hope they arent overdone)
- how good lod is (will stuff suddenly pop up as we get closer to them)
- if we see the weather effect interiors (do we hear rain storms when we are inside a house or cave)


8: other details like....
werewolves
vampires
clans
non black and white storylines
do we become guildmaster for everything again?
do we get some interesting animals/trees this time (although that wraith thing looks awesome)
how modifiable is the game
do quests have different endings/paths
is maiq the liar back
will the game be more advlt than oblivion/morrowind/fallout 3 or even new vegas
what level of gore do we get
is there a hardcoe mode?
do we get birthsigns or advantages/disadvantages
do we get swearing and racism back (you filthy lizard n'wah)
do we get mounts/horse drawn carriages/telleportations added/improved on
other stuff
