Oh snap.

Also, I knew it'd be Skyrim when I was playing IV and people were talking about the nords having troubles.

If it is like Oblivion, I won't play it. If it is like Morrowind, I will play a thousand hours of it.

Agreed; and I just rebuilt mine LAST WEEK.

On the plus side, I'll probably just need to upgrade my video card...

Oh, I wanna go on record right now that Bethesda is NOT trying to 'cash in on human suffering' by setting the prospective launch date of November 11th; they're using a catchy and memorable pattern for the date that goes one step beyond the founders of Armistice/Remembrance/Veteran's Day: 11/11/11. I also go on record that someone's gonna get huffy and pissy about the 'disrespect' they're purportedly showing.

(so be ready a year from now when I post naught but 200pt red-bold caps of "I FUCKING CALLED IT!"

)

I almost shit myself when they announced this, I thoroughly enjoyed Oblivion and a bit of Morrowind.

WANNNNNNNNT!!!!

Loved Oblivion, never really had the time to give Morrowind a chance and on the fence with this one. I traditionally make an Imperial warrior when I first play and it seems all Nords from what I picked up.

That would be lame.

zfubarz · Postby **zfubarz** » 12 Dec 2010, 21:59

i don't think they've ever limited character selection before, hell even if you picked a dark elf in morrowind they still said you came form a different part of the world.

I highly doubt it will be Nord only.

Anyway, super excited, loved III & IV. I'll get this for sure.

Arius · Postby **Arius** » 12 Dec 2010, 22:50

You'll probably be helping the dragonborn ala Martin from IV.

Genghis Ares · Postby **Genghis Ares** » 12 Dec 2010, 23:12

I figured the Dragonborn would be somewhat similar to the Nerevarine from Morrowind, but that could work as well.

Arius · Postby **Arius** » 12 Dec 2010, 23:23

I wouldn't say it would work, I'd be disappointed. That was the big problem with the main quest in IV. You weren't all that important, more just a guy running most of the errands. At least in III, you were the only one who would be able to do it.

FUUUUUCK YEAH!!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!
(I'm in love with this series.)
that is all.

Very exicted for this. I practically lived in Morrowind for a summer. Actually a little disappointed it's not taking place in Summerset Isles, though. Skyrim will hopefully be a little less generic then Cyrodill ended up being, but no where near as...alien as Morrowind.

Also curious about the story. A lot of really world changing stuff happened at the end of Oblivion, and I'm hoping they aren't going to ignore some/any/all of it.

Save that Martin is dead and didn't have an heir so I think there will be a new line of dragonborns, and hopefully you will turn out to be the one (or you go on a quest to create a new line).

And good that they finally went to a new engine

I fully endorse the above statement.

I'll reserve judgment until I get a view of this new engine. Perhaps it will have directional lighting this time?
