Get roasted alive by dragons in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim's Comic-Con trailer
61
The latest Skyrim trailer from Comic-Con has dissuaded a lot of our fears about the newest entry in The Elder Scrolls series. It's good to know that shambling aimlessly through an endless wilderness will still be a major part of the game, for instance, and that we'll still feel a smug sense of self-satisfaction as we callously off a complete stranger with a skillfully placed arrow from the shadows.
It also looks like we're going to spend a large majority of our time being set ablaze by dragons, which may or may not be karmically related to the amount of time we spend shooting arrows out of shadows.

I don't understand, none of this is new footage. They've just spliced together scenes taken from there E3 demo. They didn't even rerecord they just chopped them up and released it in 720p

Looks like a lot of this is from the footage at E3

I'm curious exactly how much playtime will be spent staring at a horse's ass...

lol its hard to ignore it. The ass is more in the camera than the player.
Is it just me or does the horse model just look like one giant ass with a head?

very scenic, brings back fond memories of old family camping trips. dragons back then were much larger, of course.

Looks good. Can't wait to create my own little dragon and use him to fight off other dragons, in mid air.
Now, what should I call my pet dragon?

And dragon weapons, all of which you get by collecting dragon body parts.
They would have opened this up to being able to collect things from other monsters but they didn't want their game to get mistaken for Ultimate Super Monster Hunter the 3rd Portable HD Console Arcade Portable Console Edition.

It's almost as if they don't want us to view their promotional material. I've never understood this. Luckily, people above say it's just re-released E3 footage. Still, it happens all the time and it is baffling.

Please, PLEASE tell me that the glimpse of the dialogue system is going to allow for conversations that don't create some kind of time-freezing temporal bubble around you and the person you're speaking to.
New Vegas's latest DLC went so far as to just shove multiple voices all in the same dialogue, and it was painfully showcasing just how flawed Gamebryo is.

Er... Skyrim doesn't use the Gamebryo engine. It's a new engine soley developed for the game by Bethesda.
And no, there is no more time freezes in dialogue ^.^
