Elder Scrolls IV anounced by Bethesda Softworks

Kakero,

i'm currently at work. Ha! so from memory, yes the game will be shorter (not sure I like the sound of that). the story goes to say something about a portal (or something) opened up and monsters of another plane are coming thru. naturally the emperor needs another hero to save the day. yet you are the one to go out and find a particular person who CAN close that portal (or something). i forgot how you start out but when you do, you can tweak the appearance of your starting character. from what I saw, the character first looks like a knight in shining armor or maybe we would be able to tweak that. not sure. anyway I'm most excited about the construction set which will be included with the PC version. (Oooooh Ooooh i almostforgot to mention that Xbox2 will most definitely get a version AND and big AND for all you PS fans, MAYBE (devs aren't sure) a PS3 version.) The Xbox may or may not have a CS but let's keep our fingers cross for it. from the read of the article, you can make your mods with ease. won't go into details because frankly i can't remember and i don't want to be inaccurate. yet the character's you create can also have an AGING appearance. the pics showed two of the same NPC yet they aged one of them. So cool. and most non-static objects can be manuever in different positions? not sure but that's what i understood. So no need for the "Book Rotate" plug-in eh? There's more stuff but i gots to go back and earn my bread. talks to guys/girls later. btw i'm so stoked for this game. also check out GameFaqs.com forum for the PC version. it's yapping over there. see yah!

Edit: Here's a good forum topic at GameFaqs. Hope this link works: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/gen...topic=16244676

you bet! i love this game series. i have both versions, PC and Xbox. Just bought the one for Xbox. it's different since there are no mods to plugin YET i love the gamepad control and rumble effect. makes me feel like i'm more in the gameworld.

back on topic re oblivion. i remember reading that the NPCs will have schedules instead of just standing or wander a little. it means they will have jobs to go to, people to see and they will actually converse with another. also they can commit crimes (at least the thieving types) and guards will go after them. hope i read that right. anyway way cool! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] this will make the game so much real and alive. we would not be the only ones acting in the gameworld. NPCs can too. [img]smile.gif[/img]
