Yeah on the one hand if it doesn't bring my machine to it's knees like Oblivion did I will be a little disappointed. However, that was on a P4 at 3.0 + an x800 XT. Now I have a 4Ghz quad with 8M cache and two 6850s with fantastic scaling that tear through Crysis 1920x1200 4x/16x Ultra High at 57-70 FPS so I certainly expect to do better, relatively speaking.

i dont care how well it looks, so long as its at least as good as FO3/new vegas.
modders will soup the graphics and textures up for us if they're lacking, so long as the engine is stable and the missions are fun.

I don't care about anything in the game as long as I can make a pet named "Mussels".

you should make an assasin based on stealth, and start up the TPU hitsquad with a pack of pets named after all the mods.

Not a fan of having companions in Oblivion myself, can't really avoid friendly fire (or slash/hack, more appropriately) LOL

Argh you reminded me of that short blond elf who used to follow me around in Oblivion! I was a 'good' character but he made me do very evil things... I hope there won't be his counterpart in Skyrim..

I am disappointed with the last picture, the lighting still makes caves look "plastic", but much improved over Oblivion.

It looks beautiful! I agree on lightning, but little tweaking should fix it.

Already put down $15 for it. Can't wait to play it on upcoming custom gaming/etc. tower/build/thing.
So will there be an inset very high resolution texture option? |

Nice. Probably will do the same I've been doing for OBLIVION. Finding those 2048x2048 and above texture mods. Of course trying to make it look as close to the Bethesda stuff as possible. In other words, the vanilla textures are "out-of-focus" the same way a camera could be smudged heavily with guck. Sort of mod user I am. Even though I don't know how to make them worth a shit.
Actually been steadily working on very high resolution textures for MORROWIND also. EDIT: Would be nice if Bethesda offered orderable discs/secondary discs full of full/ultra resolution textures with the game disc. |

the problem with the high res textures is they kick up the memory usage too high, and they hit the 2GB ceiling for 32 bit apps.
now they could make it LAA and offer them as optional textures... but too many ignorant users would have a ragefit if their high end dell/HP/alienware/whatever crashes in the game at highest settings, all because they chose a 32 bit OS.

You know Crysis 2 and Skyrim are among the causes that made reconsider upgrading to 2 6950s 2GB CF. I want to see benchmarks first before throwing my hard-earned money.

It could be stated on the orderable/secondary discs that the minimum requirement is a 64 bit OS. Would definitely save a lot of time for the modders to create, for us to wait for a good mod... |
