^don't know why you have parentheses there but okay. One disc would be ideal but I can easily see this being more than one so I'm hoping they soon confirm that one is an install disc MS be damned

Does anyone know if there will be werewolves or vampire houses?  Cuz it would be totally bitchin' if Skyrim had a bunch of Nordic vampires and/or werewolves.

The question I'd most like to pose to Bethesda about Skyrim, I think, is how conjuration will work in regards to the whole "put the same spell in both hands to make it more powerful" thing.  I love summoning pets, so I find conjuration to generally be the most fun skill to play around with in ES.  One of my favorite things to do in Oblivion is enter a dungeon full of bandits/marauders, sending wave after wave of summoned minions after them while I stay hidden in the shadows, watching them get cut down to the undead and daedric invaders seemingly coming out of nowhere.  So I'm really curious how summon spells will work in Skyrim under the new system.   
 
There are a lot of possibilities.  Assuming summons still work by lasting for a short duration before disappearing, you could make it so that summoning a creature with both hands would negate its duration and make it permanent, but only as long as you didn't switch either of your hands to anything else, or the spell would end.  Or, assuming you still can normally only have one summon out at a time, you could make it so that using both hands would summon more than one of the creature simultaneously (perhaps two creatures initially, then three after a perk).  I know a lot of people wished you could summon multiple creatures in Oblivion, and this could be a way to supplement that. 
 
Of course, there's also the much simpler possibility of having the summoned creature just come in with more hit points and damage when summoned with both hands, but I really hope they don't go that route.  It would be terribly uninteresting and kind of heart-breaking for me, knowing how much more they could do with it under the new magic system.

@JP_Russell: You know, I'd never thought about playing that way. Playing the puppet-master and having all your minions do the dirty work. In all the time I've spent with Elder Scrolls games, I've never really put much time into Conjuration, I think I might just have to try that out for Skyrim.  Your main point, however, is an interesting one. It's obvious how they'll handle "dual-wielding" spells when it comes to the basics: more damage, more healing, bigger explosions; but I do have to wonder what they'll do to the more practical sorts of spells. Your idea with Conjuration sounds great, making it a permanent (until death) ally; which, I too, hope is the route they go instead of just making it last longer or be more powerful.  Then there's other issues: how will it affect Water-Breathing or Water-Walking? Just a longer duration? Same with spells like Charm Person or Open. There's only so much you can do with those sorts of spells, namely duration or magnitude. I wouldn't pin my hopes too much on each "dual-wield" spell having a unique property - it just seems like it wont work for the work for the majority of the utility spells.

khajiit must have claws, nuff said.

@JP_Russell: Great question and I like the idea, I felt that in Oblivion the summoning was kinda underdone, rarely as a high level mage would just one summon kill anything normaly I'd have to summon over again if not over and over again just to kill something, maybe making your summons a little bit more powerful or having them level with you would be nice so they wouldn't die as easy like they did in Oblivion. But Great question/ideas.

@Aishan: You bastard you made me go all nostalgic for Oblivion, now I have to enjoy doing every single thing in the game ALL OVER AGAIN!

Wait... Why am I annoyed, this's a good thing, thankyou kind sir, you've just saved me a tonne of cash for the next couple of months because I'll be too busy playing Oblivion again to notice new games (Unless L. A. Noire comes out on the PC any time soon). Either way you're followed.

PS: Scratch the above, I haven't played New Vegas much yet, I'll use my enthusiasm for the atmosphere of Bethesda games to bolster my playing of F: NV instead. Thanks again.
