So that's where it confirms the 10 races? Just want to be 100% sure.

Can someone quote that little bit in the box?

"Players will still be able to [unreadable] their [unreadable] from 10 unique races when the game begins. Facial and body features are entirely customizable."

Anyone have any ideas how mining is going to work? I've seen some good discussion on the woodcutting but nothing on mining.

Fletching arrows, bowmaking are my first guesses.

making furniture for your own house, or maybe making your OWN HOUSE.

I feel the same, heck, some features that I thought impossible are happening like customizable body or real-time dialogue.

maybe like world of warcraft!!!! you explore, you find metal veins in the rocks or inside mines, you mine the ore, then you smelt it into bars, then like in dark messiah you melt the bars and make weapons and armor. :shrug:

and Silvade that make two of us, some stuff like better weather and water, bigger cities, blacksmithing... I thought to be too much to hope for

, but there they are.

Someone said there is a screen of a horse, but I haven't seen it. As for horse combat, I don't think it was mentioned.

There aren't screens or info about many other creatures, that doesn't mean they won't exist...

Also have to keep in mind they aren't sharing everything yet. They are no doubt holding out several omfg draw dropping features for premier at E3.

Snow will fall as seperate particles, falling on the ground and objects and covering them realistically.

"Snow falls naturally onto the stones and branches, appearing not as a preset texture, but falling exactly as it would onto that object given its shape and size."

Does anyone else think that it was Mark von Sydow in the trailer now?

Yes, I'm positive it was. I actually suspected that before we knew he was voicing.

It has been released, along with about 20 screenshots. Some subscribers have already received their magazines in the mail, and the magazine will be available in stores starting January 14th.

Yes you can! The Aus version should be in EB Games stores in a couple of weeks. It will have the same cover & Skyrim info. The cover has some sort of fancy ultraviolet 3D effect of the Skyrim logo.

And screenshots aren't allowed, the magzines content is copyright.

It looks like some of those screens are in game and some are concept art. I don't think they are all in game though.

Wait for Monday, Game Informer should add something to the http://www.gameinformer.com/p/esv.aspx and hopeful one or two full size screenshots.

They will continue to update it all month with articles and screenshots.
