In Morrowind you have all kinds of creative mods, like White Wolf of Lokken Mountain, Elder Council Plugin, etc. For Oblivion you have many new province mods, large branching quest mods, just lots and lots of unique mods, each feeling like a self-contained world of its own. Look at Fallout 3. Littered with thousands of variants of modern life weaponry. There's hardly any large scale quality mods adding unique experiences.

I just can't find any reason to do so. - Statue. It's made out of cheap material and doesn't have any practical use. - Artwork. Why look at the artwork when you have the finished product in front of you? - Making of DVD. You can easily read Bethesda diary and interview transcripts. Besides, someone will post this video online with their own edits to avoid piracy laws. - Strategy guide booklet. I'm assuming there will be one, but what's the use when everything in there will be on wikipedia within several days of the game being released? Maybe the price is more justifiable if there was a movie like animation DVD, like a fan fiction story of Skyrim included. I certainly won't be buying the collector's edition. Even when the game's expensive people will still buy it. However, there's no reason to pay for extra 'goodies'.

- Sex/romance mod to enhance the 'marriage' lol. - Real Time Settlers - New Wave for Skyrim. - Rideable dragons.

It's a fan fiction. You won't find any better than this. It follows Morrowind's story but has its own twists so even if you played Morrowind you won't find this story boring. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2257583/1/Challenges

Dark elf. They're nimble, quick on their feet, can see the dark, just perfect to make into an assassin.

I'm hoping you get to commission a house getting built from scratch, contributing towards its development by gathering materials and labour to build it. The house features, size, and colour all gets customized according to what kind of labour you use, the materials you find, etc.

Whereas in TES games you could run AND jump, thus not being defeated by a two inch incline. Maybe that is where the fear from the Witcher's creatures comes from..... Wrong. It's more to do with scripted events, and we all know Skyrim will probably be like Oblivion where all bosses are just like every other creature but with better stats. If the end boss will be anything like Mehrune Dagon it's gonna suck cause instead of screaming my head off I was just oh look it's Mehrune Dagon, hi there!

Seems to me you're bashing anyone pointing out negative things about Skyrim. And how are you 'sorry' I'd rather have everything in your face than using imagination? Then you talk about character background story which is not what I meant by in your face. I mean an engaging storyline where your character can emotional link into, a world you immerse yourself in, nothing to do with background story for the character. You seem to be relying on mods. A game shouldn't be lacking of immersion requiring mods to patch it up. If you want to use your imagination go to bed and go dream. When you play an rpg you're suppose to have an engaging storyline you can immerse yourself in, not go imagining things. I mean seriously, what's the point in having a main quest or faction quests when you can simply wander round the game imagining everything? That sums up how you're viewing the game.

This 'trailer' is even worse. The cheesy singing is more suitable for a comedy show, not to help make a trailer sound more intense. So far all I know is there's going to be some lame dragon hunting storyline. Nothing epic about that given the crap trailer that was made. Even the dragon in Witcher 2 was more scary, had a feeling of OMFG RUN! The dragon in Skyrim just meh...

I was able to run Oblivion on high setting after over 100 mods on my ATI 4670 1GB, 4GB DDR2 800MHz RAM, 500GB 5400rpm HDD, Intel Core"2 Quad 2.0GHz. Game ran smoothly at all times and rarely crashed. For Skyrim I'm now using i7 2720 2.20GHz turbo boost to 3.3GHz, 1600MHz 8GB DDR3 RAM, 500GB 7200rpm, ATI 6970 2GB. Now with my much better laptop I'm sure I can run Skyrim easily and Skyrim doesn't look graphic intensive as Witcher 2 anyway.

Unfortunately that's going to happen. You won't see anything like Real Time Settler - New Wave in Skyrim where you get to lead, micro-manage, and have huge wars.

I don't see how you can re-watch Skyrim's Official Trailer. What do you mean by which specific Witcher 2 trailer? I already told you, Witcher 2 Official Trailer. There was a WOW factor to the whole trailr where as Skyrim, you watch some lame dragon art and listen to the narrator for a while then it's just a showcase of some environments and a warrior fighting a dragon. Didn't feel epic to me at all because the whole thing was too vague leaving everything to imagination. In a rpg I don't want to imagine, I want to immerse into another world where everything is in your face. Not some walk into someone's house and watch them mourn because although that's realism you don't actually immerse into a game by watching something like that for the sake of it. Even in a open world game the storyline can still emotionally link to your character. Even if you're locked up in a dungeon a trailer can still show epic moments, not a you're in a dungeon and we'll leave it up to you to imagine why. Here's the trailer if anyone's too lazy to google search:

Sorry but after watching Witcher 2 Official Trailer the Skyrim's trailer just seems pale in comparison. Witcher 2's trailer felt intense, full of memorable NPCs, and just... EPIC. Skyrim's trailer felt bland... empty.

I'd rather a Sunset Isle game full of arrogant High Elves gets made. A magical land full of tall towers and unique monsters.
