I was just thinking, people on these forums have long wishlists for more complexity, and things that would require more designers/voice actors/writers etc. The question is, would you pay (considerably) more than the norm for a new game if it meant more goodies in the final game?
Its called mods. And its free, too!
I'll be happy with what they give us, 8 months prior to release and it already sounds like it could be the RPG of the decade.
Im hoping the new engine will bring a lot of features that lacked in oblivion, not to mention that they have a bigger team than last time.
I would probably pay 20-40 quid more than the normal asking price if it had lots of voice actors, interesting NPC's, and this whole ''game collects information from the way you play'' thing works well.
Edit : Also, MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC. Oblivion's music still blow's me away and I hope they bring the same atmosphere with skyrim's music. And no sudden battle music.
