Wow, the new models look amazing.  :o Especially considering how bad gamebryo's was.

It's funny, because Gamebryo really isn't all that bad. Just the way Bethesda used it wasn't the best. Look at Catherine, that was built on Gamebryo and looks better than the Fallouts and Oblivion, etc. did. Not to mention it doesn't even have anywhere near as many glitches as those games did.

I just dont think the engine was optimized at all for open world gameplay. It seems to really excell when used for console adventure games or "packaged experiences", but the only game series I know of that uses gamebryo for an open ended game is Fallout/ES, and it definatly feels and looks like a hack-job for them to get it to work for that.

if you dont like these games dont post in this thread TES games have always been considered 'top shelf' adventure/RP games yes they did have glitches here and there but nothing too bad that didnt make it playable

[Hobospartan]

Yeah, it wasn't glitches that made Oblivion unplayable, it was the shitty level scaling.

The glitchy engine really is what gave this and fallout its charm though. Personally I think it's adorable when I look over and see this rock with arms trying to shoot at me.

I can't tell if any of you are serious or not.

I kinda agree, it gives you a nice break from srs mode in fallout.

Well, due to my constant being on the TES nexus, I have a bit of info about Skyrim, turns out it's one of the more pregressive provinces in Tamriel; "Earlier, Pete Hines (the Vice President of Bethesda’s PR department), stated on Twitter that same-sex marriage will be allowed in Skyrim. He responded to someone who called the topic “hush hush” by saying
QUOTE
Not hush hush, just not making a huge deal out of it. You can marry anyone.

He later clarified his previous tweet by posting
QUOTE
Sorry, should clarify. Not any NPC, just mean any male or female. Doesn't matter what you're playing.

It appears that Skyrim is taking after games like Dragon Age and Fable, where same-sex marriages/relationships have always been allowed."(taken from TESnexus).

Also, Ive got some screenshots of race examples, which seem to be a big improvement for the most part(beards/tattoos).

How can you miss it Caff, it's pretty easy to get ahold of, I know it's on steam, and you can get the base game+both dlcs on disk for 20 bucks, Best Buy usually has a copy or two when I go there, where I got mine.

Everybody stop panicking.  I know you were all quite worried about this, but I have come to put your minds at ease...

You can be totally gay in Skyrim.
