The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim announced

[agnes]

specs to run this 1080p with bells and whistles?

A small army of druggies OD'ing on speed, running in giant wheels for 12 hours to give 1 hour of gameplay.

Better start collecting druggies

Half the group played in 3rd person exclusively?

That hurts me deeply.

Edit - Stupid "preview."

certainly looks much much better but i'm a bit skeptical as the images of skyrim have no doubt been checked for the better looking shots before releasing, where as the oblivion ones are from just one shot/location playing on some random pc

Direct x version is one of the less important factors in performance really. Although the graphics are outdated I would probably expect it's a crap optimisation of a console port myself.

Funny thing is, there are enough Oblivion mods out there to make that game best stock Skyrim. I've been looking at some of the visuals for Skyrim and they don't seem all that vs a heavily modded Oblivion. Still buying it mind - hopefully it'll be mod friendly too.

The new textures for Oblivion are much better than Skyrim's for sure, but that is something easily modded, in time...

Bethesda know better than to commit commercial suicide by releasing an Elder Scrolls game without mod support.

Now that Skyrim is coming out, I wonder when we will hear news about Fallout 4

Indeed. Moment they do that they may as well not bother releasing it on PC. It'd go from potential pre-order to bargain bin pick-up immediately.

They're all pretty awful.

Bethesda have some of the worst character artists I've ever seen. They've been plagued by this problem since Morrowind, for the love of god Bethesda, please hire someone decent!

Didn't Interplay get the rights to the Fallout brand back for its mmo?
