 I wonder if the devs at Bioware play Elder Scrolls games? They make RPG's, so I would imagine that they play them a lot, too. I bet they secretly love Bethesda's games, but tell their coworkers how glitchy and boring they are so they don't look loyal to Bioware's western-RPG competitor, lol.
:D


Putting aside fears of being labeled Benedict Stanley, do any devs reading want to share their opinions on Skyrim or past Elder Scrolls games?


I recall that David Gaider posted a photo of his office and had a Vault Boy in the shot.  I imagine game devs play lots of other games if only to see what's out there.

These screens were in the Game Informer article I think, but now they're readily available on the internet and AWESOME:

@ Brock, those shots were from this past month's GameInformer, and when I got it I ripped it right open to the Skyrim article and these beauties were waiting. Let's just say that I'm looking forward to ES5 a bit more than DA2. First look at Skyrim (and the article) had me drooling...where as first, second, third, etc. look at DA2 made me cringe. I know: 'change is good' blah, blah, blah, group hug; and I don't wish ill-intent for BW, it just is what it is for me personally.



Maybe Bethesda is just better at marketing, I don't know, or perhaps they're just not so concerned about developing a product to win over the COD fanbase, and focus more on development to please the established fan base they have in place. All Bethesda needs is a tad more story and interactive dialogue, and there's really no contest, since it appears from the article that much of the combat and leveling systems have been updated and overhauled. Just my opinion though.

Agree- if only Obsidian would do the story and writing and they'd add in companions, that would be perfect, IMO.

And the Skyrim trailer alone is about 500000000000 X better than any marketing bits DA2 has had as of yet.

Great point on Obsidian.  I'm thinking Alpha Protocol and more importantly New Vegas.  Yeah, excellent point. The thing I like about Bethesda is that they play to their strengths and play to their established fan base in their development methodology.  They don't sell a billion units sure, but they sell enough.  They're not trying to be everything to everyone.

Yeah, funny thing is that New Vegas, which is about as number heavy and sort of "old school" an RPG you'll get now, sold more copies in 2010 on 360 alone, than ME2. And you can bet that Skyrim, sales wise, will blow ME3 out of the water as well as DA2.

Interesting.  All the more reason not to widen the tent, but let the tent widen itself.  Make a great game and they will come.  Pander to the lowest common denominator, and well...you know.

And Diablo III will outsell any multiplatform RPG.  So?

Holy mother of God, I just watched the trailer(the video was buffering when I was linking it) and that WAS amazing. This is just going to make the wait more unbearable.
