I thought Oblivion was fine, but I am still upset to hear this, mainly because I just finished Splinter Cell: Conviction and that was a great game that was HORRIBLY ported.
Oblivion’s was fine, better than Morrowinds really, but this one seems a bit too console oriented. It’s working for the lowest common denominator, so while it will be as good as it is on consoles, it won’t be that great. Lets hope for mods.
New dialogue system looks leaps and bounds better though.
Okay, E3 is over and i’m trying to wrap up all the Skyrim news. i’ve seen all the videos ABOUT the 30 minute closed-doors-demo from Gamespot, GameTrailers, two from G4 and a several others. But what i WANT to see is the ACTUAL full 30 minute demo. i want to see how dialogue works without douchebag interviewers talking over the video. i want to watch some Dragon fights without retarded commentary. i want to see some horseback footage without horse armor jokes.
Anybody weeded through all the YouTube videos and found it yet?

Thars some vids without talking. However beth has said prior to this even that the 30 min demo is closed door and they don’t plan on showing it to the public. https://twitter.com/#!/DCDeacon/status/78544504684163073
Unfortunately, it seems that this is all they are allowing to be released, since this is the same footage as in all the commentaries. As a side note, I am slightly alarmed by the lack of reaction from the second maruader in the cave after the first one is shot by the player. Seems like the AI could still use some tweaking.
i had this same thought, it always annoyed me how that happened in oblivion, if i were looking at someone, and they got shot and killed by an arrow… last thing i would do is just stand there like nothing happened…
this is something i really hope they work on and get fixed
as for the UI being highly affected from the port, it wasn’t too bad in oblivion, but i liked the UI in morrowind a lot better. just as long as its not as bad as the borderlands port… the UI on PC for that was just horrible (i know, different developer, different pretty much everything, but still it has the potential to be just as bad, and i really hope its not)
How would you react if someone you were talking to suddenly went “HURK!” and fell to the floor mid sentence? Yeah, it’d probably take you a second to realize what happened. in Oblivion, the NPC would have turned immediately, known exactly where you were and dashed straight toward you through the darkness.
Realistically, the NPC should have taken a second or two to realize what was happening. if he were a quick thinker, he would quickly move aside and AWAY from the player instead of charging towards the player like an idiot. if you’re playing a stealthy character in Skyrim i would HOPE that they’ve improved stealth enough to make arrow sniping work.

The NPC in the trailer did in fact react to his companion dying. He drew his blade. If todd had given him more time he probably would have looked around too. The time between shooting those two was relatively low.
Maybe. All I know is that if my friend got shot right in front of me, I would have probably dove behind that pillar to the left and had a general idea of where the player was based off of the arrow sticking out of his chest.
SURPLUS_NiNja what the shit is that thing in your sig?
Its a guy thawing a steak.
Over melting plastic?
Which is over a toilet bowl?
wtf did I just watch?
That’s probably the dirtiest apartment I’ve ever seen.
Not really Gif material but pretty funny video.
I lol’d hard. Either he is an amazing comedian with a run down shack used for troll physics, or he is just a baked out of his mind retard who owns a shitty apartment and is fail cook…
We should probably get this discussion out of the TES thread.
