It is but they have re written the game code iirc

How do you know that? well i wont be buying then. That engine is a disease. Play morrowind too see the same stuttering that all have suffered from.

Having missed the skyrim e3 live thingy, is this all the content they showed?

All I can say, is Im going to get a cpu/mob/ram upgrade for this and Bf3!

HOLY ****! that looks awesome. can't wait to play.

my small concerns were 1) we didn't see third person fighting and he said the same as he said last time which was that "this time it's a viable option" which ended up being rubbish and 2) it still looks really messy fighting in that you just end up clicking, running and swinging around missing the enemy

I think it looks great. I have always loved the stealth aspects of TES games, so i'm glad that they have not changed that so much.

I will always be forgiving concerning the Gamebryo engine as used by Bethesda, as i have loved the gameplay in all of the Elder Scrolls/Fallout games and have had relatively little problems. I realise that it makes the game borderline unplayable for some people, but i have barely seen a glitch in any of them

I like what I hear and see I just hope they'll really push the visuals on the PC version.

Looks amazing for the Xbox version, love TES games, can't wait for this one.

nitram100 · 6 Jun 2011 at 20:59

Looks amazing. Upgrade planned for BF3 and Skyrim.

Looked great but when he switched to the Mammoths there was pop up grass with small draw distance ewwww, hopefully extended on PC version.

Snow part looked nice :cool:

Graphics is passable..not great, not bad. Similar to Oblivion. Animations are finally better and maybe it will even be playable in 3rd perspective, which is unheard of when it comes to Bethesda.
It will probably be good game.

Is it a new game engine?

Shamikebab · 6 Jun 2011 at 21:53

Who cares if it's a new engine. Look at the vids, look at the shots. If you like it great, if not then get something else, why does it matter whether the engine is new or improved?

P3N9U1N · 6 Jun 2011 at 21:57

the graphics look greatly improved from oblivion

It looks pretty good

I loved exploring the dungeons on Oblivion so I'm glad there will be plenty to explore in this game.

Me too. I loved sneaking around caves with bow+ arrow, picking off whatever was there. Very overpowered in the end, but it was great.

because the game engine adds or detracts from the gaming experience

oblivions experience was slightly ruined because of the engine

atleast for me

Looking good. Hope there is lots of items.
