Very interesting info and some surprising facts.

Ooh, nice. I was hoping for a question about the amount of voice actors, though - everyone sounding the freaking same was my biggest problem with Oblivion.

Well I think I saw something, somewhere, about a claim that there would be 70 different voice actors for Skyrim. *shrugs* With all the stuff they're taking out I would hope that more voices could be added in.
Not a lot of new info. considering the game isn't that long until release.
They've finally confirmed that cuirass and greaves are in one piece. I wish they had answered about whether clothing and armour could be worn together though. I miss that about Morrowind. (I miss my enchanted water walking pants for my female character the most though)
It's looking a bit like Oblivion 2 but with Dragons, Marriage, smithing and bar fights. Although some of it does sound like it's been borrowed from Fallout too.

I think it's going to be more like fallout 3/new vegas in which you just wear a full suit and nothing else can be added under.

Pre-ordered, from Amazon. They were cheaper than anywhere else.

Didn't I just read that somewhere else? ;)



I'm curious if they implemented mirrors into the game.

Bethesda has confirmed that there won't be a demo, as usual. It probably wouldn't be feasible anyway, given the sandbox nature of the game.

Too many Morrowind fans methinks. ;)

Nothing wrong with being a Morrowind fan. :) Although I would have preferred a female Breton or perhaps an Argonian just because it would have pleased a lot of people.
I like that they look more like the Dunmer do in Morrowind. It's probably the angle but his head is freakishly large, especially compared to the waspish waist. Not liking the ears or the high top ponytail. I like my Dunmer males with a roguishly, handsome ruggedness which this look doesn't do for me. I hope someone's contemplating a Dunmer beautification mod.
Is it just me or does the armour texture look a bit off?

Maybe this is just a *really ugly* Dunmer? :D

I hope they have rough, raspy voices like in Morrowind, too. That was awesome.

I don't really remember that much dialogue from Morrowind, but now that you mentioned it...

We're watching you... scum.

It's almost as good as "I AM the law!" from BG.

He's no Julan Kaushibael that's for sure!

I heard a substantial rumour that the Morrowind Dunmer voices would be returning. I think there might be a raspy sounding Dunmer heard briefly in the E3 demo.
