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.
It finally got announced!
Oh please. It's a new god damn Elder Scrolls game. We're all going to nerd out over it regardless of what is and isn't in there. Not to mention it's Bethesda, so it's gonna be AWESOME!
Seriously though, I hope that they also made a new engine along side this game. After two games with the same one, it's time for a new one.
Oblivion is better than Morrowind. There, I said it. Flame me as much as you want people. Go ahead, I'm ready.
I thought this was kind of weird too. Snow, caves, mountains...I suppose there are a few ways they could make that work." Takes place in Skyrim? Sure can't wait to spend 100 hours walking around in the snow! "
One thing I'd like to see, which I actually submitted to Bethesda's suggestions process, is the ability to create your own weapons/armor. The idea was basically to have a system akin to a character creator for items, with an online component similar to what Forza 3 has (I think, I've never played it) for paint jobs, where you can purchase other people's work. It could make the mercantile skill a more viable way to play through the game.
Other than that, I'd like to see some more interesting magic options. Throwing fireballs got a little old after around 400 hours.
Take the good things from Morrowind and remove the bad ones, do the same for Oblivion and then add a bunch of new great stuff. Then I will be happy.
Also I was hoping for Elsewyr, but Skyrim seems great :D
" Elder Scrolls V, Mass Effect 3, and me in a beautiful video game sandwich. Uncharted 3 too. FUCK! 2011 year of the forever. When Half-Life 3/Episode 3 gets announced for 2012 I will know why the world is ending. Because there is nothing left worth playing. "Diablo 3
" @EvilTwin said:Bah, fine. I'm sure Diablo 3 will be out by the end of 2012." Elder Scrolls V, Mass Effect 3, and me in a beautiful video game sandwich. Uncharted 3 too. FUCK! 2011 year of the forever. When Half-Life 3/Episode 3 gets announced for 2012 I will know why the world is ending. Because there is nothing left worth playing. "Diablo 3 "
What we all want, what we need, what we require and what we demand out of Bethesda is a new game engine.
If it's a new engine then I hope it's more Morrowind than Oblivion to me. Morrowind despite the cliff racers is something I can enjoy even today (would probably VLP it if I had more HD space, and a crew).
In celebration of this I want to finish Oblivion, i've started it 3 times and never finished it. Is it more fun on PC than consoles? Thinking I will probably get it on PC.

"I dunno if it's MORE fun.. I bought the PC version after finishing the 360 version twice, though simply because I wanted to toy with mods..
I'd say it's worth it if you're gonna do that, otherwise if you've got it on the 360 I'd just keep going with that.
