So the new screenshots include a view of a Khajiit and an Orc? I wonder if Bethesda has been reading the threads about what we'd like to see screenshots of.
Anyway, Iike what I see, the orc looks great, I think I'm willing to say this is the best design for orcs I've seen in the series to date. The Khajiit picture, unfortunately, does not let us see the legs, so I can't tell if Khajiit get proper cat feet now or human feet, but just going by the upper body, I'm pleased, I don't see any claws, but that may just be because the Khajiit is wearing gauntlets, his face on the other hand looks pretty good, and best of all, I see
whiskers, that's something previous Khajiit were always lacking.
Aside from that, the other screenshots are also good, and I must note that in that one with the ruined structure, the water looks somewhat better than the other screenshots we've seen so far led me to believe, I still wouldn't say it looks good, but it does look better than I thought it did. If I were to make a criticism that isn't something we've all heard many times before (I.e. nothing to do with water.) my choice would be that the small branches on the fallen tree in the orc screenshot look kind of low resolution, but that's really just nitpicking, as I don't expect the game to make that kind of detail fully realistic and it's probably something that can easily overlooked in gameplay.
You think it's a mix of fur armor and iron/steel armor or the fur from the khajiit showing underneath his armor?
I think it's probably the former, though it would be nice if it was the latter, as it would mean Khajiit will have actual fur rather than just a flat fur texture. Then again, it looks like the Khajiit's armor leaves some skin showing, so I guess that could theoretically mean a few tufts of fur could show through, but I don't expect the game to give us that kind of detail.
