The Khajiit are looking really good imo.

So far, we have some confirmed Nord screens and one Imperial screen where the guy is wearing guard armor and hard to make out.

I am really hoping Imperials and Bretons look totally different from Nords and totally different from each other.

For example, I've been playing Oblivion for years and it was only yesterday that I learned Jauffre was a Breton(!). I really hope Skyrim does not suffer from that problem.

Correct me if I'm wrong, He was supposed to be Imperial before the game came out and they changed it to Breton

OK, still need a dev confirm what race the brown-haired guy with the bow was.

That Orc looks like an 80's businessman at a fancy dress party...

Nice collection of high quality versions of the pictures (mostly) in the first post on Nexus: http://www.thenexusforums.com/index.php?/topic/420545-quakecon-character-screenshots/

I'd link to those in the first post instead.

I think it looks like an Imperial.

Hopefully. Imperials and Bretons have looked alike for too long.

Really hope he's not a Breton.

His ears don't look very pointy to me.

Hoping the Bretons look A LOT different from Imperials and Imperials look A LOT different from Nords.

I think the new breton looks sweet!

Why are people saying how Bretons, Nords, Imperials and redguards should look nothing alike? They are alle human races, so you can't really expect them to be completely different

Still there should of course be some distinctive features...but with a character creation as elaborate as Skyrim's supposed to be, I guess it's up to the player to stick true to the races in terms of hair color, skin color, facial features etc. Let's just say that overall it's a MASSIVE improvement from the Oblivion characters whom had all been hit several times with the ugly-stick

So I guess Bosmer have a purpleish/pale/ashy skin tone now? Tha'ts pretty cool. The comparison to Kif from Futurama was pretty spot on. They look pretty alien. Big improvement over the old version of Bosmer. Now they can be the killer, cannibal woodsmen they were meant to be. I wonder what they will sound like now?

Now we just need a Breton, a Redguard and an Altmer. :thumbsup:

I wonder why the lack of female characters... I hope the Altmer's a female if we get a screenshot.

Looks like a Breton to me, slightly pointed ears.

Finally argonians! I hope the skin tone can be changed, I have always played as black and red.

» Sat Aug 13, 2011 2:12 pm

Holy [censored]. I'm strongly considering playing a bosmer as my first playthrough instead of dunmer. The bosmer looks badass.

Indeed. When I think of Bosmer I usually don't think of them as that muscly though.

Bretons aren't Human, they are half elf and half human. So at least the Breton's should look different.
