Badfur 13 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is the next installment in the Elder Scrolls series created by Bethesda Game Studios. Skyrim contains several upgrades, both in how the world is perceived, and in character options. Bethesda, knowing that they have a lot to work with using the current generation of hardware, created the Creation Engine. In order to bring about the Creation Engine that is used for Skyrim they have rewritten the render, gameplay, and scripting language. They redid faces, and the environment, and recreated a world as beautiful and lifelike as the one we live in. The game was made for first person, but can be played in third person, if the player prefers. The interface has been redone, you can now control what is in your left and right hand. You can have a weapon in both hands, a weapon and shield, a spell in one hand with a weapon in the other, or even spells in both hands. If you have the same spell in both hands you can use both hands to create an enhanced effect with the spell. Skill with your equipment increases as you play and get use to it, and raising these skills will increase your level. In leveling, not only is there a bonus in that your level increases, but you will be able to choose a bonus ability for a skill. Each skill has several bonus abilities that can be gained, and these are only accessible by leveling. This new system lets you further customize your character to your play style. The character menu has been enhanced, now the items in your inventory can be rotated, inspected, and viewed in high detail, so you know what you are carrying, as well as its statistics. These are not the only new skills available to you, as Bethesda has introduced the Dragon Shout ability. Words of power are located around the word, and once you learn a word of power, it can be unleashed by using a dragon soul. How do you get a dragon soul? By killing a dragon; they have returned as foretold in the Elder Scrolls. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is released on November, 11th 2011.

Dusky 9 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Any chance of adding a bit more? Hahahha we gotta find the balance between essay and one paragraph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badfur 13 Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 I know.. I felt it was a bit short, but at the moment nothing else was coming to mind that seemed to fit. Easier, to have it up and add more than that have something huge and try to edit it down, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
Dusky 9 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Yep, that sounds good... 3 paragraphs is a good rule of thumb, and going beyond that a bit is also good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusky 9 Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 One last thing, you should incorporate Dragon Shouts somewhere into the article... it looks to be the calling card of this game. http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon_shouts You can easily fill a juicy paragraph about the awesomeness of this stuff.

Badfur 13 Posted November 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 So, when should this be posted? It hasn't been posted yet.. it's been postponed, but no set date to post it. I have been without power since last Saturday, and unless someone has gone and posted it themselves, I don't have a day yet to post it. The game is released in 7 days.
