The Evolution of Argonians

Awesome, now I just want to see a Breton.

Theres a thread up right now with a pic of a Breton...looks a lot like an imperial though. Though thats been common with OB too so I guess it doesnt matter

Looks good. I'd still like to know how their legs look.

Just because they had animal legs doesn't mean the looked better...seriously, how can you say a character in a game from 2002 looks better than this?




....Because if the point of this thread is to mention how better the graphics look in a 2011 game rather than a 2002 game, then DHU. This is the dumbest thread ever. :P

Obviously the point of the comparison isn't the graphical quality (since it makes no sense for two games with a huge gap in technology). The point of the comparison is the character design.

And the character design for the argonians was a zillion times better in Morrowind.

Speak for yourself.

I hated beast legs, may they never return.

All the races look much better than in any previous installment, IMO.

The first thing that jumped to my head was a raptor from Jurassic Park. Girlfriend is freaky.

Actually those were better. You see, human bodies with animal heads and tails growing out of their asses are not specifically good looking, you dig?

Beast legs make them look like what they are: anthropomorphic reptiles and felines.

Human legs really makes them look like human actors wearing a monster costume to pretend they're argonians and kahjits.

I don't care. They look better. That's that, as far as I'm concerned.

Have you heard of an "opinion"? Quit stating your opinion as fact, because it's not a fact, sorry to burst your bubble but some people don't believe the same thing as you.

I dearly miss the beast legs, but the Skyrim Argonian face definitely makes up for the abomination it was in Oblivion.

Now show me some tail.

Seriously, the fan-boyims here...

Can you guys look past the graphics and get into your head that OBVIOUSLY a 2011 game has better graphics than a 2002 game?? And that's not what makes a game better?

Argonians are a step back.

And have you? It's kind of obligatory to assume everything said online is an "IMHO".

Nothing was said about beast feet yet, so there's still hope.

Argonians looks 10 times better now than they did in morrowind and I have gamed morrowind allot!!! beastlegs or not the way bethesda have made the argonian look this time is superb, they look like real lizards, scary as hell! jusy like I always wanted them to be, I agree that beastlegs would be even cooler but still saying that the argonians in morrowind looks better is 100% pure BS!

Khajiits have human ones, as stated in one of the reviews. Beast races shared the same models both in MW and OB.

Someone should do an Evolution of Bosmer.

Arena and Daggerall - Alright

Morrowind - Lol, Fargoth

Oblivion - Ugh, Adoring Fan/ Glathiar

Skyrim - uhh, yes my lord..

Actually, they looked way more lizard-like in Morrowind.

Once more, forgetting that this is not a graphics comparison since that makes no sense (the LEAST I expect is for the graphics to look better than a 2002 game).

Oh, great. So kahjit and argonians are once more just humans wearing a rubber mask. :/
