Various Clues to new content in this video

Post » Sun Oct 02, 2011 8:54 am

This is a really old video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5zVawg-J-w

But if you look at it, a boatload of the things you see on the white board have been implemented and confirmed. If you study it carefully a few things that are not confirmed can be also be seen:

At 1:49 you see the crafting stations. It shows an animated guy in the background working (recently confirmed at the Euro show)

At 2:04 you can see some potion effects. I can make out restore health (confirmed) damage health (confirmed) possibly (DOUBLE DAMAGE) cool as hell potion effect IMO, probably shock resistance, and that last one is who knows... E Weak. Any ideas what that is?
It also shows mushrooms. Not sure what we will make with them but it shows something to do with damage.

At 2:55 you can see THE OFFICIAL MAP

At 3:00 there is various concept art. That thing in the middle wearing a loin cloth with claws up in the air and wolf looking head looks a LOT like a werewolf to me. Loin cloth would be consistent with player transforming. To the upper right we see the same creature in a modeling sheet (left side, front and back). Looks like a werewolf again and has the loin cloth.

At 3:06 it shows the horker meat which is confirmed, and also a mammoth nose, and who knows what the other stuff is. Venison and I'm not sure.

At 3:10 I think that is the frost troll we saw in the video demo.

At 3:45 we see the eye of Nagnus. Could this guy be a grey beard?

Anyhow, maybe this was talked to death in January, but after learning a great deal about Skyrim this year we can revisit this to get a few more possible ideas. I though it was interesting. When I first saw it early this year it was hard to take in because we didn't know much about Skyrim but now that we know more it's easier to put the pieces into perspective.

Thoughts?

Have we been shown in-game Horkers yet? Or has anyone seen one at the game expos?

Don't think so. It's also unlikely that anyone has managed to get that far north in 20 minute play sessions. (I'm assuming Horkers are located near the coast in the north btw, I can obviously be entirely wrong here.)

Also a Dutch gaming magazine mentioned Werewolves, they just didn't note if they would be playable or not. But don't take this as confirmation, pelase.

That remembers me of that other Tour Video where we saw the Dwemer Centurion animation. If you look to the wall covered with pictures and art-concepts you will see some creatures already confirmed and unconfirmed creatures too.

I believe that's the Eye of Magnus. Magnus being the god and overseer of sorcery. Magnus has been known to take over the bodies of powerful magicians and lend his power to them -- I'm assuming the man in the concept art is one of the people Magnus decided was worthy enough to posess. I guess Magnus will be playing a decent role in this game. Epic.

Hmmmmm, if were looking at the same pic, it looks a bit scrawny/normal sized to be a werewolf, it also looks like it has armor kind of. It does look like it has a wolf-like head though. That pick on the top however, THAT looks like a werewolf just after leaping/jumping down from something.

Just because they have werewolf concept art, that doesn't mean that doesn't mean that they're in the game.

Agree.

The player animation at the crafting workplaces is a quite cool find, as are the potion effects. :)
Does that concept art feature werewolves? Only time will tell.

I believe the text above the guy on the right says "The Executioner". Probably the only polearm in the game, and unusable by the player character.

As for the main subject, I believe it's a guy wearing plate armour, dual-wielding two cutlasses as they rest on his shoulders, crossing behind his head.

Oh ok! I can see that now..And all the more sense seeing it's holding a severed head..Still..Polearm in game, usable or not!
