Chorrol.com _ Skyrim _ Epic Skyrim trailer dissection

Posted by: RagingMudcrab Feb 27 2011, 05:37 AM

That's right friend of my mother, http://thegreatgategazette.forumotion.com/t50-it-s-the-final-countdown, and holy compassion is it amazing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9eGtyqz4gY are totally natural. I mean, this trailer is great. And who else but me is going to go frame-by-frame and cut this umbrella seller open? Let's kick it.


IPB Image

Wow. The new engine looks awesome. I mean, we'd seen the great graphics before in the Game Informer screens, but in action it looks jaw dropping. And this is just some landscape. We get a lot more all throughout this trailer.

IPB Image

Looks like here is that sprinting mechanic in action. The Duvahkiin has to make good time.

IPB Image

This image gives us a look at the effects of spells on the landscape around you. It also shows the Dragonborn being really intense. I'd like a wallpaper of that.

IPB Image

Thuum time baby!

IPB Image

UH, take that shout punka** dragon!

IPB Image

The scale of this game is really huge. Compare those buildings to those people. That's big, and apparently most cities in Skyrim are like that. Those buildings are the size of the Imperial City's! Awesome.

IPB Image

HORSES CONFIRMED, HORSE ARMOR PACK DLC IS TOTALLY ON THE WAY, OMFG SO HAPPY!

IPB Image

Some people are claiming that this is a ship. While we all know that the Nords are a great seafaring race, I'm pretty sure that thing in the hazy sea is just a reflection of the buildings on the above cliff in the water. I really hope there are ships though. Holy compassion, I want to be a captain.

IPB Image

Giants are going to be fun to fight. These dudes are big. Their footfalls shake the ground. I wonder if they'll fight like http://lounge.moviecodec.com/images/attachment/super-mutant-behemoth-vs-skagzilla-6257.jpg from Fallout.

IPB Image

Hunting is one of the best parts of Oblivion. It feels like you're actually in the world, just living. Great for immersion. Stuff like that is what makes The Elder Scrolls my favorite RPG.

Oh yeah, dragon-battle baby. I love how it reacts and recoils to every blow. The blood effects look great. So intense.

IPB Image

Here's some of that BioShock influence in Skyrim. It's probably a pretty good idea to bring a fire spell along with your sword to take on a frost troll. Smart little Duvahkiin!

IPB Image

Playing an assassin is bound to be fun. Striking from the shadows, murdering your pray in the darkness. HOW FUN!

IPB Image

Ooh, right to the face. The fights are brutal in the north indeed.

IPB Image

The lighting looks pretty good. I dig it.

IPB Image

Damn, look at that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_effect! It's like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QukVlX0_9C0&feature=related. Awesome.

IPB Image

Spirits? That guy better be bringing some silver of enchanted weapons with him. Cool armor though.

IPB Image

Arrows vs wild dog!

IPB Image

Ouch, that's a painful end. Finishers are just as violent as all the other combat in Skyrim. A sword through the chest, that's intense.

IPB Image

And hey there, look at that, Nirnroot! Confirmed baby.

EECK, giant spider! i r fraidz.

IPB Image

Woah, it's a Dragonborn http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AoOa-Fz2kw! Sick!

IPB Image

Over there on the left looks like the stairway to the Throat of the World. And on the right, another dragons. There's a lot of them in Skyrim it seems. A LOT.

IPB Image

Boom, the date that is etched in all of our minds. And that's it for the trailer. Big stuff. Very epic. Cannot wait. See you next news article!

The thu'um and the quickening - I replayed that section so many times I probably wore the vid out !!!

I see lighting farts is a popular tradition in Skyrim...
IPB Image

Someone get this guy some mouthwash!
IPB Image

Watch out for road apples!
IPB Image

It's always a hassle when your g/f's former boyfriend shows up...
IPB Image

Beans, beans, the musical fruit... Doesn't this guy ever learn?
IPB Image

Shouldn't have drank all that nordic whiskey last night, seeing things I am...
IPB Image

Get back on the porch with the other dogs!
IPB Image

Call Billy the Exterminator!
IPB Image

Just like mouthwash, deodorant is obviously in short supply in Skyrim as well...

I too have seen the trailer as well, and there's another scene where the shadowy hooded fella is sneaking through some ruins, so it looks like they made the Dark Brotherhood a little more civvie-friendly instead of wearing blatantly obvious Suicide-Emo Dark Leather Armor.

The Assassins shall spill red blood upon the white snow, and then make yellow snow on their graves!

(I added that last part before Malx and SubRosa made the comment.)

I just loved that trailer!

Oh and a tip: when posting alot of pictures in a thread. Link them rather than inserting them in your posts. Makes the page load quicker and look smaller smile.gif

I was considering doing that, which I actually did do in http://thegreatgategazette.forumotion.com/t40-todd-howard-blue-screens-a-compaq-presario-while-giving-a-studio-tour#78, but it was really late and I was too tired to go back and change the code. I'll probably do it next time though, especially now that I know that this site has a limit to how many pictures you can have in a post, making me post multiple times. And I'm ardently against double-posting.

I'm seriously confused as to how My Little Pony has infected almost all of the internet. I mean, I've heard it's got good writing, but WTF!? MLP is everywhere these days. Good mash-up though. Surprisingly well edited.

The language filter kicking in made your dissection even better. biggrin.gif
