I'm leaning towards a dark elf dual weapon or bow and restoration spells.


If you can pull off a dual dagger backstab power attack with the right perks, high one-handed skill, maybe some poison on the blade, it looks like it will do a massive amount of damage:

ONE HANDED:
Armsman (all 5 ranks) 2x damage with one-handed weapon
Dual Savagery (1 rank) 1.5x damage with dual wield power attacks
Savage Strike (1 rank) 1.25 one-handed damage bonus with chance to decapitate


SNEAK:
Assassin's Blade (1 rank) 15x damage for dagger sneak attacks


So we have a total of 56.25 x (base damage x 2 for standard power attack x 2 weapons)

Something like 225 x normal base dagger damage for normal non-power attack.

If you add poison damage and enchant the daggers, this seems like it might be enough to one-shot a low level dragon!


Aah yes, the Butter knives +50 of Doom scenario.  I love this kind of stuff in games.  But   it usually takes me a couple of playthrus before I can get myself motivated enough to power-game at that level. 

By the way, do poisons stack?   I mean, can you apply more than one type at a time on a weapon?

Edit:  also, this isn't something I've done a whole lot of research on,  so forgive me if it's a stupid question, but are we sure that Daggers  even GET to apply the one-handed/dual-wielding perks?  For some reason I was under the impression that they're their own, unique  weapon style.

If this game is very successful, do you think it will influence other developers?

Will we see "skyrim clones": on a par with "COD clones"?

I sure hope so. there's surprizingly few open ended, do anything, sand box type games around anymore. And the RPG-producing gaming companies I love are all moving in the  other direction.

A game-play philosphy shakeup would do the industry good.

Of course, with our luck the complete  opposite will likely happen.  Skyrim will sell so well that some gigantic company like EA will finally take notice, BUY bethesda, then we'll never see another game like Skyrim ever again.

No, you can only apply one poison at a time.

There are some one-handed perks that apply specifically to axes and swords, and some that seem to exclude daggers.

However, as far as I know, the other 1H perks such as Armsman, Dual Flurry, etc., apply to any one-handed weapon, including daggers.

I think that would be highly unlikely. I seem to recall some bad blood between EA and Bethesda relating to the use of some A.I. algorithm Bethesda's CEO developed for a football game that was published by EA and then later used in all the Madden games.

From that point on, Beth vowed to self-distribute all their games and recently they have been acquiring a number of other devs, such as id, Arkane and some Japanese developer. (or publishing third party games)

Don't even think or hint that about someone like EA buying out Bethesda. That would be the worst thing for which could ever happen to the gaming industry as well as to TES games that we so love. Of course I'm surprised with as popular as the TES games are now that EA or one of the other companies haven't tried to buy them out.

Yes but if you dual wield you can apply a different poison on each weapon couldn't you? BTW is there going to be quickslots in the game like there was in Oblivion? Or does anyone know

Naughty how close are you to finishing the main questline in Oblivion?

Not sure, but it certainly seems like you should be able to apply different poisons to each weapon.

I don't think I'm going to be able to finish in time :pinched:

I would think so as well. Any idea about the quick slots? As big as Skyrim is we might not be able to worry about mods will have a hard enough time just getting through the vanilla game. Image IPB

Well now see what happens you goof around and don't get it finished. All I've got left to do is to hit each town for Alies and than it's the big gate. I've closed 59 of the 60 Oblivion gates and was told that the final one has to do with the big gate in the last battle at the end.

Well there are a number of open world games around and more coming. Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas have been amazingly successful, I think FNV is a bigger seller than DAO and ME2. If anything it will be the success of FNV plus Skyrim then hopefulll Reckoning that will lead to it becoming a bigger genre. Of course there is also GTA, RDR, Saints Row and Assassin Creed.

Most of the ones for which you've mentioned I've never even played. Mainly because I'm into game style like TES games and BG, NWN, DAO etc.

Gamespot review will be up on Thursday. Apparently Kevin Vanord's been playing 80 hours and barely even started the main quest.

Todd Howard talks about DLC they are already working on in today's interview with Wired Magazine:

“Very quick DLC might sell well, but that’s not our priority,” he said Monday in a phone interview with Wired.com.

“We’re not going to be doing a lot of it. Our high-level thinking is that there’ll be not as many [pieces of DLC], but they’ll be bigger and more substantial,” he said. “The goal overall is not necessarily to put out more content, but to make the game better.”

I couldn't agree more I was reading some of the comments on the link you posted and would agree with most of them in regards to the TES games giving you more bang for you buck. One guy they jumped all over because he was whining about having to pay for a DLC from Bethesda. Go figure that one out.

I pre-ordered Skyrim last month. I couldn't find it in my Steam library, so I was about to contact support. It turned out that the game appears under the E of Elder Scrolls and not under the S. Phew. Ghehe.
