Concept Time Lapse @ GameInformer

I think its going to be a good game, I spent many years playing Daggerfall, Morrowind and Oblivion and enjoyed all of them.  The construction set in Oblivion was fantastic and I'm looking forward to seeing what the new game can do.  I hope the developers at Bethesda look at some of the commands which were created in the popular OBSE plugin.  A good variety of scripting commands allow modders to do some truly amazing things.

I like how they've looked at mods for inspiration, and it's good to see that they realize Oblivion had design flaws in many areas. It certainly sounds like this one will be "the" game to play in November. I'll most likely give it a go, seeing that I've played all of the previous ones (except Battlespire).

Menu System Overhaul @ Game Informer

[Nesh'ara]

Wow. I never thought I'd ever see a nebula in an Elder Scroll game menu. Not that it's a bad thing, I love the idea. Though it seems a bit strange that the magicka bar is placed before the health one. That could get a bit frustrating when you're trying to wrestle ogres off your back and you don't have time to keep an eye on which bar is placed where.

[Archmage Silver]

If the placement of the health and magicka bars will be our only concern regarding the game, I'll take it. Especially since it only takes a simple mod to change their location.

[Darziak]

I think that's just on the menu and in the game it will be different.

As long as the bars keep their traditional color codes, then I don't care where they put 'em! *sigh* Is it November yet?

Niiiice. The third and fourth are gorgeous! That arm in the first picture looks seriously wonky, though.
