If they use the same leveling system from Oblivion, count me out.

 

they already said it had been changed.

 

Cool, haven't kept up on it and didn't feel like sifting through the whole thread.

 

Awesome! Thanks for posting that!

 

What's wrong with the Oblivion leveling system? I quite like it. You develop based on your gamestyle. Whats wrong with that?

I pray they don't make it like the fallout leveling system.

Looking good. If that's really ingame then it'll be amazing. But knowing Bethesda they've taken a few liberties. I love the mix of Oblivion and Morrowind themes.

 

I'm starting to really like the look (and especially the sound) of this. Never really got into Oblivion, but I'll take a draconic invasion over a demonic one any day.

 

Given my present low opinion of DA2 having an alternative dragon fighting game is no bad thing and if that vid is indeed representative of in-game tactics, then wow.

 

I like the way you think, Jello.

 

i'd like to think they would be capable of some in game stuff at this point, given how long they've likely been working on it.

and definitely looking the look of this. the faces don't like as dead, at least in that. things move more naturally. this could be a very good thing.

 

Never having played an Elder Scrolls game I'm wondering if that'll affect this one.

 

That is definitely in-game. My main hope for the game that Bethesda has taken to heart the best aspects of Morrowind (awesome quests, multiple paths through storylines,excellent attention to lore) and Oblivion (good combat). In any case, I trust Bethesda. They haven't let me down yet.

Also, the reworked Morrowind theme

 

I think I just died and went to nerd heaven.

 

I ended up watching the new trailer about 15 times in a row last night. Everything about it is awesome!!

The theme tune played is actually the "Elder Scrolls Theme Tune" it has been adopted from Morrowind. Oblivion actually has pretty much the same tune its just being altered.

Also this blog is very good for keeping up with developments!!!

 

Agreed. One Morrowind element that Bethesda needs to incorporate into Skyrim is inter-guild interactions. In Oblivion, the guilds couldn't care less about each other (and there were fewer guilds too), whereas in Morrowind, the inter-guild interaction was a big part of the fun- not to mention the immersion. Another thing with the cities- larger populations would be a plus. The small populations in Oblivion were probably a contributing factor to the smaller amount of miscellaneous quests per city.

I've watched the trailer enough that it's annoying my room mates

 

Rewind Theatre has their analysis vid up.

 

just found this about the combat changes they're making.

 

Love, love, love the trailer. I just nerdgasmed all over my keyboard.

 

linky

very interesting story about the tech behind the game, hits up everything from the engine itself, to the new physical behavior stuff, to the improved radiant AI, to something they're calling "Radiant Story" which... looks like it could make the game last for a very, very, very, very long time without mods.
