Title explains it fairly well...

they look pretty cool, I assume that is a Daedroth in the top right.

And the front rank died
And the general sat and the lines on the map

Wow, it looks cool (and quite dangerous! :D ). But did Daedroths have that wattle like thing in Morrowind?

Not to my knowledge, but it looks like the poor guy is a little camera shy - hes got his eyes closed.

A few new screens now. The minotaur looks very impressing! http://www.elderscro...eenshots_01.htm

The Minotaur isn't that good gotta get polished up alot more.. It's the trees/rocks that are the main thing in that screen

Yeah there's something wrong about it, I think it could be the musculature... I doubt it will be changed much though. Doesnt that cathedral/citadel thing look impressive though?

Nah, I think you guys just got jarred because the edges of the minotaur graphic are very flat, whereas everything else is so nicely smooth and rounded.

I'm really looking forward to playing this.

It's not just the edges: if you look closely, the textures on the minotaur are lower resolution than the surrounding world.

Well, it's just a screenshot. Improving is possible. Have to say that they really got the enviroment well made this far tho.

No, its not that. I think it may be that its in the middle of an attack so its torso is twisted at an odd angle... Its definately something about the upper legs/lower torso.

Yeah I think the environment is one of the things that they are really working on this time. Perhaps to make up for the rather barren landscape in morrowind? :P

Quite possible. :P The lack of trees was disturbing. Now it seems that Oblivion will be better in many different aspects. Although some complain about the lack of crossbows, which really isn't too hard to add through a mod.

It's probably just a placeholder minotaur, it hasn't even got eyes. Have you seen the pics of the knight they say them pics are all in game and he looks alot smoother than the minotaur.

That could be part of my problem with it actually, although its not that strange - you get brown horses with black manes (just as an example)

I'm in love now, that is a very impressive sword, I wonder if I can buy it somewhere (going to look in the shops now)
I apparently have a high level of empathy, combined with a low level of sympathy... weird

Is it just me, or do each set of Screen Shots impress you more? That deer looks so life-like...

Dunno. If they aren't rendered as they say they aren't, I can only hope that they can do every aspect of the game with the same precision...
