I call special attention to Jeremy Soule's music. This, his second remix of the Morrowind theme, is even more cinematic, more epic, than his astounding work for Oblivion.
Oh, and the voice over guy? MAX VON SYDOW.
Now.
Nownownownownow.
NOW!

Date: 2011-02-26 02:36 pm (UTC)Sniping will apparently be even MORE effective this time, as they're taking inspiration from one of the more popular Oblivion mods. Daggers will be a lot more useful for sneakers, melee is more interesting, and from the sound of things, magic is gonna be so much more versatile.
(So yeah, so torn as to what to play - rogue, battlemage, general smashy guy...)
And yeah, the world looks gorgeous. Gonna be so nice to run around in.

I like the Norse look (( wonder if he has.. A Sampo! ))
Speaking of Sampos, Sabrina and I are going to see the MsT3K guys live tonight.

Date: 2011-02-26 08:32 pm (UTC)If you could make an MMO, what would it be?
(no subject)
Date: 2011-02-27 04:01 am (UTC)If you don't like the utter EPICness of MMOs, I suggest checking out Morrowind, the Elder Scrolls game two iterations before this one. Very much non-Tolkienesque, despite the presence of elves and dwarves. Utterly alien architecture, animals, aesthetic, and feel of the world.
(It's also a lot more open than what I've seen of Oblivion, and what will likely be true of Skyrim. Fly spells!)

Date: 2011-02-27 05:43 am (UTC)I don't play MMOs myself, but I strongly approve of any group that's named Puns Galore.

Date: 2011-02-27 07:48 am (UTC)But still, as a group we're wishing for an MMO with a significant difference yet fun to play.
So far our WoW guild names are: Those Meddling Kids, Fluffy Bunny Rampage, Disgruntled Wombats, and Puns Galore. When people comment on Puns we tell them we're Pussy's little annoying brothers. More often than not there's a pause (sometimes over several minutes) then a text message saying they got it with lots of LOLs ;-)

Date: 2011-02-27 04:20 am (UTC)It's the first true art-form of the 21st Century.
I just watched that video on a Windows 7 Screen, hi-def with DX10. The only thing keeping it from being mistaken for reality is depth of focus on some shots. I bought the Oblivion soundtrack and used to start my day at work by blasting it from the speakers on my office computer.
It's going to be a great year. Just finished Dragon Age and Mass Effect 2, am working on Red Dead Redemption.
We're less than two weeks from Dragon Age 2, then LA Noire from Rockstar in April.
...and that is just the first four months of the year.
Mass Effect 3, which promises an ending to a saga reminiscent of a Stravinsky, is also coming out this November......
