The Elder Scrolls | sida 3

Ja Arcania har jag faktiskt funderat på, har du spelat det och är det bra? är väl hyggligt stort och har en del quests det med va?

Ja jag ska nog ta och ge det en chans också, finns det någon worldmap eller något tillgängligt?

Synd med saknaden av worldmap men det ser då verkligen inbjudande ut, alltid något tills Skyrim kommer antar jag. Ska läsa lite mer om det :)

Aha, det fungerar så.
Men hur är det annars då, är det hyggligt stort, fritt? Har det många quests etc.? Ja av det du hittills har sett menar jag?

Okej, ja det är ju lite synd att du inte får skapa din identitet så att säga, ger ju mer inlevelse då. Men det kan ju fungera ändå, men visst är det ett pluss i sådana här spel ifall man kan det.
Ja okej då :) men sidequests menade jag? eller har den liksom bara en mainquest man går efter?

Patrik, läs detta nu! Jävligt intressant och faktiskt ganska likt det som kommer komma i spelet, det roliga är att vi då kommer introduceras till fyra nya raser.

Man kan ju hoppas.
For the king!
For the king!
For the sake of Skyrim!
For our life, for our home
For Hrothgar's blood
For the Nords and for the Gods,
For the sole single son
Dovahkiin, our king, who'll dawn with fire!

Läs denna artikel, väldigt bra där man får höra lite om utveckligen av hela serien av några av spelutvecklarna sammt en sammanfattning av storyn i alla spel.

FÖRSTA BILDERNA FRÅN THE ELDER SCROLLS V SKYRIM ÄR UTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Info:
Ok, here is my recap of the info, hope it helps. This is not all the info, however.
On leveling:
Totally revamped, no more class selection at the start of the game, every skill you level contributes to your overall level. And each time you level you get extra health plus the ability to get either more health, magicka or stamina.
Each level also brings you perks. Cool abilities I guess like in Fallout 3.
Also, the leveling was moved from 1-25 or something like that to 1-50, but 50 is soft-capped, you just advance really slow after that.
On skills:
Mysticism is gone.
18 skills, down from 21 on Oblivion, and 27 on Morrowind.
Tries to accomodate players who want to specialize in a certain proffesion (like mage or thief), while at the same time giving room for players who like to do plenty of everything. They want to keep a special care so that this feels good, not prone to cheating and organic.
On the story and lore:
200 years after Oblivion. Set in Skyrim, a region north of the imperial city, where the Nords live.
The dragons are returning, as it was prophetized. You are gonna be trying to stop the wicked dragon god. You are a dragonborn, a dragon hunter. Your mentor is one of the last blade, voiced by some old dude from Shutter Island and Minority Report.
Also, there is a civil war, since the king is dead.
Enemies include were-yeti's, giant spider, dragons and other cool creatures.
On combat:
They want to make it more dynamic and tactical. You have to assign each hand with a function I think, either magic, 2 weapons, a weapon and a shield, etc.
You can also waste stamina by sprinting, allowing you to get access to tactical postitions.
Emphasis on really improving the combat this time around.
They are also putting care on how each weapon feel on your hand.
Other:
Third person view has been improved
5 massive cities, more variation in caves and underground stuff.
On quests:
Quests are much more dynamic now.
The quests are now more determined by how you build your chracter, individual actions and overall much more dynamic. Examples provided: If you are more of a magic user, some other mage may approach you who may not have had if you were just a melee character. Or if you killed some dude who owned a store that was gonna give you a quest, his sister would inherit the store, but she may resent you before giving you the quest. Also, if you drop a weapon in the street instead of selling it, it may just dissapear, some kid may get it and give it back to you, which would lead to a series of stuff, or some dudes may fight over who gets it.
Also, it said that the quests you are given would be modified by how you have played (I guess like scaling the quests). For example, the location of a rescue mission would be determined by which location you have visited (it will try to give you a dungeon you haven't been in) and I guess also giving you appropiate enemies to your level.
I can add that there is an option for no HUD.
On Conversations: (thanks MrBig)
Conversations aren't done in a zoomed in static shot anymore.
Start a conversation with some and they will act like someone would in real life, looking at you occasionally and walking around a bit and also continue doing a task if they were doing one while talking.
On Weapon smithing:
Go to a forge and carve a new weapon out of red hot metal.
Recap from raphier
Dual-wielding: you have two hands now in combat and you can wield anything to both hands. You may assign a dagger on left hand and use a mace with right hand. The choice as they say is yours.
Duel: You may duel any NPC on the streets western style.
Inheritence: When you kill a shopkeeper, his/her family member will inherit the shop and will be angry about you, but stil give you missions.
Level-scaling: It is coming back
18 skills: supposedly even less skills to play with?
No mysticism
Perks: Rumored to be in Skyrim. I may have understood it wrong.
Boosts: Pick stamina, health, magic boosts on level up.
Enchanting: This skill makes a return.
"Radiant storytelling" or Level Scaling 2.0: "The game eventually logs a huge storehouse of knowledge about how you've played, and subsequently tailors content to your capabilities and experiences. Entering a city, a young woman might approach you and beg you to save her daughter from kidnappers. The game will look at the nearby dungeons you've explored, automatically set the mission in a place you've never visited, and designate opponents that are appropriately matched to your strengths and weaknesses."
Fast-Travel: As you probably expect, you can instantly travel to previous locations with a tap of the button
Sprinting: You can now sprint about!
Town visiting: You may do more in towns, like tailor weapons, cooking, farming or mining. Not much details about this or how detailed they are as jobs.
Yet another recap:
-A variation of level scaling.
-Dynamic Shadows
-Overhauled Combat-system
-Improved Faces/Improved Models Example: Faces have been dramatically overhauled. Characters now exhibit more emotion show of distinctions between different races and just plain looks better.

-Hud-free first-person view and improved third-person perspective
-very unique landscapes! Also unique dungeons! In other words, lots of uniqueness!
-Character creation improved, body features customizable
-2-handed weapons and duel wielding confirmed.
-Finishing moves, unique to each weapon and enemy you fight.
-Kids

- cooking/farming/mining/woodcutting/blacksmithing
-18 skills.
-Perk picking at every level-up
-5 Magic Schools Destruction Alteration Conjuration Restoration Illusion.

Sedan hela tio raser, låter ju helt gudomligt!

Var tio raser i Oblivion och Morrowind också, så inga nya, tyvär.

Men man kunde inte välja ras i början då alltså?

Jo, men inte en classes.

Indeed kommer att bli underbart!
Gillar även att det kommer att finnas ungar med i spelet för en gång skull, blir lite mer realistiskt.
Diggar även att man kan duellera mot olika personer i riktig western tappning, kul att bråka med någon npc och avsluta med en duell.
Sen kul att om man kastar ifrån sig saker från sin väska som ett svärd t.ex så ligger det inte kvar på marken som i oblivion för alltid, det försvinner om det ligger på öppenplatts då någon säkert hittat det, och ibland kan ju en unge t.ex komma och fråga om man tappat saken och även se folk stå och sloss över saken de båda hittat.
Gillar sånna detaljer.
Sedan 5 städer, frågan är hur stora det är, men många på olika forum snackar om att det ska vara 5 riktigt stora i stil med Imperial City och att det sedan ska finnas ett par mindre byar runt om i landet.
