Skyrim: No dragons till you’re ready for them | VG247
Skyrim’s dragon attacks, like Oblivion’s gates, won’t start grinding you into fishpaste until you’re nominally ready for it.
IGN asked Skryim lead designer Bruce Nesmith whether the game’s infinite random dragons could mean a beginner is toasted moments from the start of the game.
“We decide when those random events can happen and how,” Nesmith explained.
“All of our ‘random’ systems are actually sophisticated decision systems that use randomness as one part of the process.
“Random dragon attacks won’t happen right away. When they first start, you will have companions with you or be able to use the environment to your advantage, and the dragon will be one of the weaker ones. As the game progresses, you fight tougher dragons and are on your own more often.”
It sounds similar to the way Oblivion didn’t start opening hell gates all over the countryside as you were completing the tutorial; these dynamic features began springing up once you’d completed some of the main quest line, increasing in frequency as the plot progressed.
Fears of sudden spikes in difficulty are well-founded, with both Morrowind and Oblivion notorious for a messy enemy-scaling system which could see the character unable to defeat low-level monsters. Bethesda is working on it.
“This is a system we continually tweak and improve. It’s extremely complicated and detailed at this point,” Nesmith said.
“Its main goal is to make sure that the player is always finding new challenges that do not devolve into unavoidable failure or trivialize success.”
Skyrim releases on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on November 11.
Skyrim Story Gets Radiant, Box Keeps It Simple | PlayStation LifeStyle
ce simplu ii boxart-ul. De altfel ii ca si la Oblivion sau Morrowind. Sincer toate 3 imi plac cum arata (da si la arena si daggerfall ii ok). Hai ca o sa pun toate 5 cover-urile ca sa stiti la ce ma refer. Incep in ordine descrescatoareWhen The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion launched five years ago, “Radiant AI” was one of its most highly touted steps forward. This mechanism impacted the lives of NPCs and how they’d react to what was going on, particularly the player’s actions. Despite the moves forward, attention was mainly drawn towards how many of the same voices were heard and how many copy-paste personalities the world now had. With the next Elder Scrolls, the developers are looking to take the next step with the Radiant AI, and go on to create a whole “Radiant Story.”
Bethesda Softworks is gunning to make the entire world as lifelike and ever-changing as possible, with story paths and quest possibilities opening and closing depending on what the player does and when. The same domino effect that would realistically be made by a character in our world is said to also be in that of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
In other Skyrim news, the game’s official box art has been released. Keeping in line with those before it, the design keeps things simple and sweet:
Eu sper sa nu imi placa jocul. Doua saptamani am stat in casa cand am cumparat Oblivion. Am uitat de scoala, teste, mancare, tot.
Ceva despre o editie de colectie se stie? La Oblivion nu a fost mare lucru.
Bethesda BlogGet a premium Skyrim map with your preorder
Making real maps of our fantasy worlds is an Elder Scrolls tradition. As Todd Howard said all the way back in a Morrowind blog post, �There�s something about having a physical object in your hands that feels like it�s part of this other world, that you are that person in the game, finding your way among the hills.�
With that in mind, today we are announcing that anyone who preorders Skyrim will automatically receive a premium quality world map with their copy as a no-extra-cost-to-you bonus.
To guarantee your copy of your premium quality world map, please pre-order today.
si daca joci demo-ul nu tot singuri descoperi toate alea? Un demo la skyrim ar fi ca sa iti ofere o mostra din ce are de oferit intregul joc. Eu l-as incerca pentru a ma acomoda cu gameplay-ul caracteristic seriei TES (care nu mi-a placut mai niciodata), sa vad unele peisaje, unele creaturi, arme, vraji etc. Mie sincer imi pare rau ca nu o sa putem face rost de un demo inainte de lansare
Eu vreau sa descopar totul cand joc jocul pentru prima data. Il voi cumpara cu siguranta aproape de lansare.
Nu s-ar fi putut abtine ... eu as fi vrut un demo ca sa vad daca imi place sau nu , ca asa ma fascineaza universul de genul asta, doar ca nu stiu cum ma voi acomoda pe PS3 cu jocul asta.
Se aude ca ar fi facut un demo de 2 ore si ceva la Comic-Con,dar se pare ca a fost cu usile inchise.Poate gaseste cineva un cam...
