Kissimurra Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Today I sat down and looked on the Oblivion trailer in slowmotion, and then I noticed something! The Khajjits no longer walk as the beast creatures did in morrowind, they walk and run upright exactly as the other races do. If you look through the trailer you will come to a part when a Khajjit runs trough a corridor that looks like some kind of trap with swinging things., this is where you can see that the Khajiit walks upright. What do you guys think about the khajiits walking upright? Should they have their own style as they did in Morrowind or is it good that the walk "normal" in Oblivion? Edit: Sorry for the spelling, it is Khajiit :) Edit: The polls dosent seem to work as they should, I guess that Dark0ne is working on this.

Tammo_Korsai Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 I havent seen the trailer myself, but I think they should keep the style of walk they have in Morrowind, and if they dont have Argonians in Oblivion I aint playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well don't worry, no need to boycott Oblivion just yet. All of the races in Morrowind will be available in Oblivion. With regards to the thread...I would like them to keep their beast features...perhaps though their actual motion could be revised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switch Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Well, I guess a lot of MMORPGs and such do have the cat races standing upright, so they probably thought that would make the race more widely appealing to players new to the series. Not sure I really mind... the whole legs-apart-and-waddle-around thing did make them unique, but at the same time I think it kind of put me off the beast races. So maybe this is a positive thing. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stampede Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 A waddle! Yeah, that's the word I was looking for...I remember being a bit...er...surprised when I watched an argonian take a stroll in Morrowind. The argonians seemed to be upright in Daggerfall. They also looked much cooler than their Morrowind counterparts...who looked very 'wimpy' in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kissimurra Posted August 21, 2005 Author Share Posted August 21, 2005 Yeah, I think it looks kinda stupid when Khajiits/ Argonians walk in Morrowind. Perhaps they should keep the style they had in morrowind, but change it so that it looks a bit more "human". But as it looks right now, atleast the Khajiits will walk upright as the other races.

KzinistZerg Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Well- they definetly should not walk like plantigrade people- they have digitigrade legs. (Z instead of a >) they would have a slightly funny walk, but not to the degree they had in Morrowind, and running, I think they would look mostly like everyone else. Also they would not have the same stancce- it would make much more sense for them to look like ......O..o........o ..._o_ when they looked like .........O ....o ..........o ..._o_ (above is digitigrade, below, plantigrade) ......O ......o ._o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kissimurra Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 Yeah, I totally agree with you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaanicOne Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I suppose it would be nicer if there were unique. But personally, I like them to walk like other people, It puts them on an equal level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incan Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 yes i would like kajiit's to walk as in morrowind but alos make them really more faster........like if they are runnniong maby run on all 4's or suomething..... as for argonians...there like fish people......maby when they swim...they shouldn't swim like human maby like a mermaid or sunting so they are the fastest swimmer. and for another new race...i would like maby a flying character...that would be cool...... also does anyone know if there will be werewolfs or vampires...i wanna be one.
