An Elder Scrolls MMO to replace WoW (since Titan isn't going to be fantasy) sounds EPIC! I just hope they do a really good job if they were to go into the MMO business. It's not an easy thing.

i am not looking forward to skyrim ever since they announced they are getting rid of classes and making it into 3 generic categories.


When did ES ever have classes?

I look forward to seeing all that they've learned since Oblivion. Even the Shivering Isles expansion was a big step up from the original game in terms of design, I thought anyways. Now? ...

I just need to be sure to upgrade my video card. My Radeon HD 4850'll likely scream bloody murder and explode the second I bring it home, so... yeah.

The only thing I want changed is the "leveled" mobs. Now, to clarify I am ok with bandits getting better weapons and the like as I level, and I would like to see better AI. But when I start the game wiping out a goblin without trying, to doing a few theives guild and dark brotherhood quests and I end up with a super high sneak and security skill without really leveling my combat skills too much (I was stealing why did I need to go cave diving?) the same goblin will now need to be turned into a pin cushion before it goes down (this was my wood elf archer).

They said they were going to do it more like Fall out 3, which I never ran into any issues with so I'm ok with that.

I just hope they don't totally change the leveling system to fall out 3 style though, perks are cool and make a nice addition, but I would still like to level my self by whacking things with my sword as opposed to just getting EXP like I do in every other game.

The engine they're running Skyrim on is the "Creation Engine" which was developed by Bethesda.


It's a highly modified Gamebryo engine. It's also--thankfully--the last hurrah of that engine. That engine does have a (very) few good points, but it's high time it was put out to pasture.

I'm looking forward to Bethesda using the id Tech5 engine. Rage is merely the first example (and really has little to do with Bethesda). I think we may see something really amazing in Fallout 4.

I don't need a totally new one yet, but I will probably upgrade my video card.

The graphics, if consistant with what we've seen and previews have said, are going to push the bar again just like Oblivion did when it came out.

I'm thinking of getting it on PS3 rather than my computer. My TV is apparently HD enabled, I haven't played a HD PS3 game on it yet, and it's the size of my bed, so it seem decent to try it out on.

PC, I have too many games to juggle and people to talk to at once.

I'm so getting this!, my new I7 Quad core with 3GB DDR3 440 GT video card and 8 Gig ram I'm getting next year will run this nicely, and Guild Wars 2.
