What are the last 2 skills in stealth? I've been gone for a bit.

We don't know yet.

Bet on Sneak and Mercantile.

Not sure if you want to add this or not but Dragon Skeletons remain on the ground even after you have absorbed their souls which can be seen and confirmed in the Demo Video.
After the first Dragon is killed and its soul is absorbed the Skeleton is there on the ground when the Ice Dragon arrives and is being fought.
This makes sense now that they confirmed the making of Dragon Armor in Heavy and Light variants.
I assume you will be able to loot the Skeletons for Bone or Scales to make the Armor.

According to forum member The Black Ghost, there is a recent magazine with some mention of Jsashe, the Witch Queen of Whiterun.

You can see the Witch Queen of Whiterun in a screenshot from one of the more recent magazines (which we still do not have OFFICIAL screens of...so I cant link it)

Has anyone else heard anything about this article?

Maybe The Black Ghost is confusing the subject of a previously released image?

Also, BUMP best thread.

This is a great thread, yes; however, stickies are limited here to threads created by Matt or Nick, in other words, official Bethesda releases of information.

I certainly hope so... I didn't pick up on this, at first... Nice point :foodndrink:.

The Septim line was a prominent Dragonborn line protected by the Dragonguards which eventually became the blades.

Well what do you know, my gaming name is Elder Scrolls related. I'm a Blade. :tongue:

It's just dawned on me that the whole 'you can get married, and if you own a house, he/she will move in with you' thing is confirmed...I thought it was just a joke :facepalm:

Can't find any info find zaldir :foodndrink:

New info:

Although, I'm not sure if you want to add that stuff or not. It seems a little bit far-fetched.

* 'Magnetism' in your attacks draws them more towards enemies rather than allies.

Thank goodness, the first time I played Oblivion I had a bounty right after Kvatch because of some random guard running right in front of me during battle

Same, annoying as hell. This also tells me something else though. Why add magnetism, why combine greaves to fit more people on screen? It all points to one thing, a massive freaking epic battle!!!

Gstaff has indicated he will try to get some clarifications on the Meristation article - I would suggest holding off adding this info until then.

6. - Graphics & Effects

* Water Physics.

I am sorry but where this was writted or confirmed? I no game that I know , even the most advanced ones do Exhist dynamic water physics as they would require hundreds if not thousands of calculations to work in real time ......

Todd Howard confirmed it himself, at least for water in dungeons. He said that alert players could find the exit of a dungeon by following the water current.

» Thu Jul 21, 2011 6:44 am

This is not Water Physic interaction or dynamics , this is just a river that flows out and ppl can follow , , the thread information shoudl be fixed ......

Look I would LOVE to see water physics in a game but as far as I know this is still just simulated and not real physic , no game or even pc that I know can handle that amount of data yet only programs like fluid simulators can do and they require then rendering times and calculations to simulate ....

This by 1000,

* Draw Distance greatly increased, allowing for little to no grid pattern or low resolution distant land.

Who confirmed this?

The campsite screenshot from the Playstation Magazine suffered from low res trees just over the river.

Like Oblivion...
