Moar Skyrim screenies

It looks good, up to standards. Why do people expect any better while we're still in this generation?

looks like oblivion modded. not that bothered though, as long as they've improved the animation

[QUOTE="Baranga"]

Why? Do you think that Carmack suddenly decided to remove the one aspect of the engine he wanted to show off? I believe we can safely talk about what Rage is doing and nothing else is. They sacrificed fidelity on the altar of unlimited variety. Is there anything wrong with that?

You tell someone to "Why Dont we play the game first"and then you go off about Rage like you have played it, come on Dakan :lol:

I don't care about the graphic, I just want better animation, better immersion and better combat. Franko_3

Same with me.. better immersion, better animation, better combat and fix the dang leveling :P

Would it kill Bethesda to use high res textures for once? I get that they want their games to work on the ancient hardware of consoles, but come on, just make a low res version of the textures for consoles and a high res version for PC. I'm tired of looking at 800x800 res textures in their games when others are giving me glorious 4096x4096.

Well they actually promised higher resolution textures for PC.

What a lot of people seem to forget is that this game is many months away from release, and these are some of the earliest screenshots we are getting. That being said, I have no complaints with the graphics thus far. I do however hope that the animations are leaps and bounds better than oblivion. For me, good animation means much deeper immersion. The opposite hold true for clunky, unrealistic animation(oblivion, fallout 3, etc.).

TL;DR - Months away from release, graphics look good, hope animation quality isn't terrible like Oblivion.

Allow me to laugh too since we laugh for no reason. :lol: :lol:....because there nothing funny or illogical with what I SAID. Which is not what you posted. You cant judge rage's entire texture loadout with a couple of screenshots. It might turn out to see them more often than expected. They even cut the game in half for consoles. But if both games look weak from those screenshots, thats how pretty much the full game is gonna be.

Also my point was the weak texture quality and that more texture variety does not mean better graphics. So how about we wait and see how much variety of textures is there when they cut the game in half to fit on the x360 disk.

But why the hell do i reply to your quotes? Seriously, you avoided yet again to discuss dragon age. I remember being one of the first who actually commented on the low quality textures before the game actually comes out. Yet most people choose to ignore it, even when the game was out, it took about a month for people to actually start noticing. My guess is biased praising of a game they had not played and when they actually played the game and took off their fanboy googles, they saw the game's graphics for what they really were and not for what they hoped.

So lets pick this up in one month after the release of rage and one month after skyrim. Notice how i dont even mention how you choose to ignore that all those people agree with me that it looks weak, yet did not bother to quote like you quote me.

Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.:roll:

Yet another one who agrees with me. if it was the previous engine, i could understand, i am afraid gamebryo cant take much. When those HD packs were released, the game suffered heavy increase in stutter. (even the creators warned about that) Now this new engine might do the thing but it looks alot like gamebryo so i wouldnt bet on it.

For the record, fallout 3 had some higher res textures than the console version. But i dont think it made that much of a diffirence. We are looking for drastic improvements and they aint gona give em to us.

Calm down dude!:P What do you expect, they are just too lazy. I don't think they will bother to make it look much better compared to consoles anyway. At least it looks better than Oblivion.

Same with Rage, after the latest screens, that game looks like a totally different game.:(

Same here :cry: Still looking forward to it, but damn, graphics king just got thrown out of the window for an average looking game :( if not dated (techical wise) and everyone acts like nothing happened :roll:

I am just gonna say it agan for some people that like to quote me :evi:: TECHNICAL wise.

So there goes rage and there goes skyrim and the actual graphically impressive looking games that remain in 2011 are: brink, crysis 2 and wticher 2. Rage sure as hell aint gonna be graphics king....oh wait, GS gave an award to MGS4 when they were clearly better looking games outhere. :roll:

Let's all wait until the game actually comes out before judge, ok? How's that sound? I mean, it's still nine months away. They have plenty of time to make improvements.

hopefully those are console shots & the PC version will look 20x better

I think Rage looks "good." However I will agree, it looks nothing like I once expected. If it had come out earlier it would be quite impressive. I remember seeing screens all the way back in '07 and I was blown away. Now that is 2011, it doesn't look anywhere near as impressive. I think we all need to quit worrying about the graphics for Skyrim and start pondering on the gameplay and the other important stuff. I personally don't think Crysis 2 is going to be all that draw dropping either. millerlight89

I congratulate you for the excellent way you made your post. Seriously, that was great i am not joking. I kinda agree with rage but you'd expect that after all that time, they would increase the graphics, not leave them be for 60 fps. I mean it makes no sense. Most devs try stuff to improve the quality.

As for crysis 2? If it looks as good as the multiplayer trailer. I will be 100% satisfied. Its still better than any upcoming fps right now. Perhaps brink looks a bit better.

I guess it's easier for the devs to blame it on console limitations and not bother to make a proper PC version of the game. And it's funny how they're beginning to charge $60 for a PC game.:(

Okay, now I'm actually getting a little more enthused about Skyrim. These screenshots are way better than those crappy scans that were posted a week or two ago. It's looking pretty good in my opinion. Let's just hope the main quest for Skyrim doesn't pull similar b.s. to what Oblivion did; "So, I have to fight through several more copypasta areas and close Oblivion gates in each of them?"

No, not really, sorry. Very dissapointing.

(watch the full sized images if you dissagree)

I did "watch" them and I still disagree. Not disappointed at all. Very cool environments with a unique flavor.

first screenshot

If those are console screenshots then all I can say is Holy ****! It looks fantastic.

Yay, at least it's got real time shadow (for that indoor picture though.)

And the character faces don't look so dumb anymore.

that water looks terrible, same for the trees. Nothing mods can't fix, though I wish we would stop needing to fix everything bethesda puts out with mods....but hey at least they let us make mods.

At least the women look like women now.

It's not as shockingly beautiful as Oblivion was when it released, but it looks nice and I'll just get a texture pack if I'm not satisfied.shakmaster13

It might not looks "next gen" but I'm sorta glad. I'm glad because I remember Oblivion releasing and obliterating my GF 6800GS. Besides, as long as the artwork is good, the animations are improved, the combat is more engaging, and the graphics aren't terrible (which they aren't) then it should be immersive enough.

Maybe this time around I won't have to wait two years before I can max out the graphics settings.

is it not possible that these are console shots??? or maybe pc on medium settings?? we dont know if this is the best it has to offer guys, lets just wait until we get some more info and some confirmed PC shots b4 we start jumping the gun....

this is incredibly disappointing, at least from a technical level. Looks like a modded Oblivion engine.

Lol... Sometimes I wonder why I keep coming back to check this website... Anyone that gave a hoot about video games must have left years ago... Its a bunch of spoiled kids and rich scumbags with a XBox, PS3, Wii, iPhone, Mac, and PC all with the latest hardware... And none of you care about gameplay at all... Everyone in this thread is just downplaying this game because of the screenshots. For what? Because they "look like oblivion"? Well I gotta tell ya, you people need to get your eyes checked. Go to Google Images and look at some oblivion screen shots. You all arn't remembering correctly. Here is one I found in 3 or 4 seconds. Or see some others here

Now go look at the OP again.................. LOL

I hope the sound, animations and combat got an update... Maybe even hair, really hate seeing that rock hard long hair look, even some animation w/o physics to make it move would be better than what it was...

Also, really hope PC Rage looks as good as the old screenshots, sure would be a shame to see it dumbed down to make them all look equal.. and fairly unimaginable coming from id.

Looks amazing! when will it be released?
