    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    Game » consists of 30 releases. Released Nov 11, 2011

    The fifth installment in Bethesda's Elder Scrolls franchise is set in the eponymous province of Skyrim, where the ancient threat of dragons, led by the sinister Alduin, is rising again to threaten all mortal races. Only the player, as the prophesied hero the Dovahkiin, can save the world from destruction.

    I hope the cities are chopped up into a ton of loading screens...

    ...since it's rumored that the major cities will rival the imperial city in size, it's possible that they may also come with the frequent loading screens known to that city. God knows it's incredibly annoying hitting a loading screen everytime I try to go to a different district. Here's to hoping they find a way to reduce the loading necessary while traveling through these mega cities and thus enhance the immersion of the game

    I hope there are four voice actors.
     
    I hope that your conversations are handled through an awkward minigame.
     
    I hope that every environment looks cut and pasted over and over again throughout the game.
     
    I hope there are basically no plot twists in the main storyline.
     
    I hope there is only one quest which can have a multiple outcome.
     
    I hope that your character remains an emotionless avatar.
     
    I hope that Patrick Stewart is in it for 10 minutes.
     
    I hope that the combat is absurdly boring.
     
    I hope that Bethesda continues to experience great success off of the backs of naive gamers who've never really played much beyond WoW!

    I'm 99% certain Bethesda have confirmed cities will be completely open, you won't have to load to go into them or to travel around their districts...you'll just have to load into buildings.

    Well you would hope they would improve upon that given how long they've had since Oblivion.

    Yeah, that was what they originally said, but unfortunately they went back on that. Apparently now, only the minor cities will be open, while the five or six major cities will have load times.

    Like FreakAche said, the major cities will not be open, but I doubt they'll be chopped up like the Imperial City was in Oblivion.

    @sreya92: Get a SSD and a shitload of ram, then you don´t need to worry about any of that stuff. But I seriously doubt they would resort to something like that, they´ve been pretty awesome with load screens in the past.
