Um wait, wasn't it said that it'd be the shortest time from announcement to release....and it's just under a year? :facepalm:

For Bethesda, that is the shortest time between announcement and release. I'm pretty excited.

Anyone think it may end up being delayed?

It will.

I say the beginning of 2012. Not to be the downer here.

I hear it, the chanting is awesome hearing it similar to oblivion wasnt.

That's the Elder Scrolls theme, as coined by Jeremy Soule in Morrowind.

I am so happy right now I am about to explode.

regarding the elder scrolls site being blanked: Bethesda has the worst servers ever, and an announcement like this is sure to send thousands of people flocking to check the TES site for information. making it an empty html page is very likely a preventative measure so the forums don't crumble under the combined weight of so many neckbeards.

YES!

I love you Bethesda. I forgive you for FO:NV. My excitement could raise the dead. Where's Jim Morrison buried?!

Haha, yea, but no, you can count me as an early adopter. So early, in fact, that I am already playing it.

Well, time to sit back, get the popcorn, and watch all of the slueuthing, bickering, going over photos with fine-toothed combs....

Let the chaos come! :chaos:

:evil:


11 months is the shortest time they've had between announcement and release... previously it was Oblivion with 18 months.

haha, ditto.



I'm still not sure if TES: Reign of Fire is a bad thing or not.


Tonight, I'm not really thinking deeply about it. My thoughts are purely "TES V OMG TES V OMG," and nothing short of announcing there will be machine guns in it will stop that happiness.

Though, signs point to a Game Informer cover next month so we'll likely get plenty of details, good or bad, when that's out.

Am I the only person that hears the OB theme in the background? Teaser was awesome, choir was sick.


It sounded to me like a combination of Morrowind's main theme (though played at higher speed to coincide with the choir) combined with Oblivion :)

Could the dragon be a representation of something else, maybe there are not actually any real dragons in the game?

Sorry but you do know dragons exist, the question is will it be one or many, plus I wonder what expansions there will be (I mean Skyrim has been invaded by Akivir so I can always hope) but then agian I am getting way ahead of my self. But can who blaim me, still so so happy. Thank you Todd and the entire Bethesda team.

GOOD (?) NEWS PEOPLE!
I asked Pete when the website is going to be up.

"@Silvade14 Elderscrolls.com is transitioning over to a new teaser site. Will take our folks a couple hours to make the transition."

I hear a mix of morrowind and oblivion, the last drums part is definitely a morrowind for me.

I can't wait to hear the full thing as a separate file. So, this, based on my scientific tendencies to at least three trials for accuracy, is the official Elder Scrolls theme that gets mixed up a bit for each game (the part all three main themes have in common)?

I think they stayed quiet for this long specifically because they didn't want to have any disappointments. I think 11/11/11 is set in stone now.

Besides, it's too cool a date to pass up :turned:
