Bethesda Mucks Around with Skyrim for the Hell of It |
Listed in: News Tags: Bethesda, d.i.c.e. summit, skyrim game jam, the elder scrolls v: skyrim
Todd Howard, Skyrim's Game Director, gave the keynote speech at the 2012 D.I.C.E. Summit and had a video in-hand showing off what Bethesda called the "Skyrim Game Jam." Yes, it sounds like a early 1990s (note: no apostrophe) hip hop something or other, but it was actually just the powers-that-be giving the developers a chance to do whatever the hell they wanted to the game.
By and large, they came up with some pretty damn cool stuff and it shows everyone exactly what these guys can do when the leash is taken off. Of course, some of these things may cause the game to take a giant shit on you, as we've all learned is often the case with Skyrim, but if they got all that ironed out it would be great to see some of these things make their way into the game or into future iterations. Howard did say that this may be the case someday in the form of free or paid DLC.
I vote free.
Howard mentioned the dragon mounts as being a possible carry over, but in addition to flying around on a big spiky lizard we could have things like Dragon Shouts that you can activate with your Kinect (if you're on Xbox 360, of course), seasonal foliage, child adoption, elemental arrows, and fast travel waygates. Then there's that giant fucking mudcrab at the end. I'd hate to come around a corner and find that thing staring at me.

You guys need to clean up your act. This website is very, very unprofessional. It's gone to "shit" a while back. I can't believe I still come here. I'm about to stop, though. Either everyone was given new author names on this site, or Dave hired more people to write because everyone just came at one time, it seems.
You guys need to realize (if you're actually new writers) that this website is garbage and that there are rules on this website. We had some bad trolls in the past and bad arguments because those trolls would harass undeserving people unprovokingly. They are retarded, but the people who own the website would not do anything about it, but as soon as other people argued back, those people would get banned. This lead a bulk of the posting community to believe that those trolls were actually hired by the company that owns this website to start conflict to get more viewers. So, there are rules, but not everyone needs to follow them. Are we allowed to cuss? Are we allowed to cuss at people? We don't know, because there are no more clear guidelines. Without a real set of rules, there are trolls out there trying to provoke chaos, and I feel like with this unprofessional trash that is purposely being put into your articles as of lately, you're inviting more of them.
Seriously, it looks like you throw curse words in just for the shock value. Just to get people to take this site more seriously as a more mature media outlet. Reminds me of middle school kids that cuss every other word so they try to impress the 8th graders.
