IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN Options

[RagingMudcrab]

It's been a while since we had some Skyrim news now that Game Informer's Elder Scrolls bonanza is over. So what on earth could be going on? Not much now, but Bethsda added a countdown to their website with a message saying that it is "for the first, in-game look at The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim." I do LOVE Countdowns!

They also threw up a wallpaper of the sooper kewl dool weeldan dragunborm viking dood for those who want it. Oh, and a podcast with Pete Hines. Talks about his history with Bethesda, some stuff about id's Rage, drops some hints about Skyrim and pretends to give info on more New Vegas DLC but ends up saying things The Vault Wiki knew about back when the game first came out. They close the show with an awesome Fallout 3 theme jazz cover that I desperately want to find. But yeah, overall kind of cool.

So check back tomorrow for MAJOR NEWS. I'll be taking apart the trailer bit by bit and discussing it. It might be too much to hope for gameplay, but anything is possible.

Oh, I really hope they have girl voices for female players in Skyrim - so when our little girls get hit with a sword or call out that thu'um - we hear a feminine sound instead of a man grunting !!!

LOL, do not worry about that.

EDIT: Only nits:
#1 Rapids
#2 didn't see the main character's boots in 1st person view when he did a crash stop at the cliff.

LOVED:
Animation
Blood effects (it had points of light reflecting off of it, looked wet)
Saw birds in the air while the dragon was closing in on the main character
Forests look fantastic!
Town buildings have interesting architecture
NPCs in towns are actually doing stuff
Many different melee moves shown
Neck slit
Kill moves (pretty sure a zombie got his head crushed in there, some dude took a sword in the stomach)
Magic animations (saw a huge explosion!!)


I'm really liking the bow shown
