[Fear Zoa]

Damn I was just gonna post this......and now that I've said that
OH MY GOD FINALLY

 

[Kit_]

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up!

 

[GeekyGuy]

Wow, didn't even know Max von Sydow was still alive. Too bad there's no hint of gameplay whatsoever.

Stay at level 1 and do all the sidequests besides the main story ?

 

[Sterling]

I just completely blacked out after watching that. I only hope they have a something similar to the Fallout character progression.

You could do that way too easily if you used the glitch with frostcrag spire to get the mace of doom

 

[Law]

I hope they do localised damage like Fallout 3/NV kind of had, but amp it up a little more so there's a bigger consequence of losing an arm instead of just your gun swaying a little (or sword, in this case).

 

[Fudge]

Just saw this. I can't wait.

 

[Delta517]

Finally! I have been waiting for this game!

 

[Oveneise]

Aww, you beat me to it! Great news though... 11/11/11 what an epic release date.

 

[kikuchiyo]

Assuming it doesn't get pushed back, it'll come out on my birthday.

Excellent, but I wish they show how they're going to improve it over Oblivion.

 

[dinofan01]

thats cool but new engine or i didnt give a crap. I didnt mind their engine in fallout 3 but holy crap how long can they stretch that out of date thing!

This. I would definitely like to see an updated engine. At least iron out the kinks and such.

 

[431unknown]

Can't wait to see what the actual game will look like.

Was referring to video footage...of gameplay.

They need to have earlier access to faster methods of travel, that is what I disliked about Oblivion above all else. That and I would like to hear voice acting instead of having to read so much text all the time. I could never get into those games for those reasons, having to read everything, not getting a very concrete questing point, better maps and faster travel methods between towns early on would be nice, like a mount.

 

[Phoenix Goddess]

*Dies happily*

*Remembers the dead can't play games*

*Comes back to life*

I may just be the happiest woman in the world right now.

 

[YayMii]

Pokémon, sorry for interrupting, I'mma let you finish, but

The Elder Scrolls series is my favorite series of all time.
OF ALL TIME!

Oblivion has voice acting. You can even hear entire voice-acted conversations between NPCs. And you can get horses very early on, or even click Fast Travel to go to one of the major cities from the start, and explore from there. And I don't know how concrete you would like your questing to be, but Oblivion is definitely pushier in terms of letting you know what needs to be done to get to the next step than Morrowind was. Are you sure you're not confusing Oblivion with Morrowind?

That said, wake me up when they come out with Elder Scrolls X: Tamriel, or its expansion, Akavir.
