Despite the epic-ness of that epic video, does anyone know the song played at the background? :o

You people have to understand that all this stuff was made in a week, so barely any testing was done some stuff could be extremely buggy, Just watch the video again it doesn't look that polished. Bethesda just wants to release things that are in working and polished condition ( as any developer should). So if you really want this stuff in the game, it will mean that Bethesda is going to have to polish everything bug test etc. That takes time and effort, this was jut a fun week for them to go make weird and quirky things with the CK. If you want this sort of stuff in Skyrim go make it, if you have enough time to make chicks with big tits, revealing outfits and weird anime girls then you have enough f***ing time to make this kind of stuff to. Although it would be really helpful if they released some of the assets shown here to us, that would leap progress immensely.

Hmmm... just as i though they hide something from us even we pay for it but what we have now is still a half-finished game and imperfect. For example Vampire, we know about Vampire Lord and something like that but it make me question why that features is not implemented yet and what make me hate to be Vampire is because every time i shown myself (just walking and say hello) to NPC they will kick my ass like hell even i didn't show my Vampire side. Sure we have CK now, Nexus always as our community, and our experience as moders but still its not enough. What ever i'll keep an eye on this, hopefully it is not just for showing off.

I agree, what modder is going to tell you those things listed are that hard, mounted dragons maybe, but only if it involves voice actors, etc... They obviously have no value in being void of bugs in the first place, this was HOW MANY people again? Compared to 100 or more of the whole team actually getting PAYED for it...

They are able to make all this stuff in one week but in the game there's no first person view and no one can interact with you while you are mounted on your horse. There are no guards riding horses and when you equip a torch while on horseback your character doesn't hold it up but burns away the poor horse's neck.
That's basic stuff, all this were implemented in Oblivion so how come they were unable to implement them in Skyrim during it's 5 years of development?

Also i just remembered... they had to build this engine themselves right, that can account for most of the hardest and most time consuming parts actually, now that the engine is out they build like pros... We can say they did good and all, but we know this is factually untrue cause of severe and just pure absurd glitches >.>

Edit:In case they did not make the engine, then remember my memory is faulty for future reference...

- Flow-based water shaders.

- Fully animated spears.
- Magic and ranged combat slow-motion kill-cams.

- Water arrows and a Detect Life-esque "Assassin's Vision"
- Guards that re-light torches.

- Moving platforms and hanging structures in dungeons.
- Fast-flowing underground currents.

- Pitch-black dungeons.

- New follower customisation, commands and favoriting.
- Adoption.
- Building of your own home (with skeletal butler).

- Combining spells for new effects.

- Goblins.
- New Draugr

- Waygate fast travel.

- Skeletal horse mounts.
- Mounted combat.

If they release some of these as free DLCs in the near future, by near future I mean upcoming weeks, I wouldn't feel that bad.
I really want the follower customization mod.

And what room for argument is there in the first place when the default is 60-80 bucks is a rip off, growing up I got 99% glitch-less games for 30$ and they changed it to double when there was not even a debt with this country >.>

Edit:And they changed it in other countries to doubling it and some places even more before any of them had issues too >.>

Edit again:And even if it was practically glitch-less it still was a rip off because of the doubled price -_-
