Elder Scrolls V- new details: vampires, new menus, voice actors, amazing graphics, nice touches

Posted By | On 11th, Sep. 2011

Todd Howard, game director of Bethesda’s upcoming massive RPG, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, has confirmed that vampires will be returning as enemies. They were discovered in a seemingly deserted mountain cave, as a preview at Ripten says.

It is not yet know if these will be playable as a class, but at least they’ll be there. And thankfully, they’ll not glow and sparkle in the sunlight, rather be harmed and lose chunks of energy.

The vampires in the game, as expected, are agile, quick, deadly and you should run from them as fast as you can as soon as you lay their eyes on them. If you don’t want to, you should be ready with the best of equipment, armour and weapons.

Other tiny little details, like a new and improved menu system which tells you what is the best weapon/item/armour out of the ones you are carrying and is a lot more streamlined and detailed than before, or the fact that you can push enemies off a cliff with a shove of your shield, or that the game looks “fu*king beautiful” were also delved upon in the preview.

Jim Cummings, a famous voice artist who has lent his voice in games like Mass Effect 2, Fallout, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, is also included in the game. Todd Howard did not give any confirmation about that, but revealed that Skyrim has over 70 voice actors.
