Bethesda: No Elder Scrolls V demo before release

Posted By | On 14th, Jul. 2011

Bethesda has announced they will not be releasing a demo for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim- ever.  “No, we won’t be doing a demo,” Lead producer Craig Lafferty said when asked by Gameplanet in a video interview (via YouTube).

“For a game of this size and complexity it’s really hard to do a demo that represents the game truly, and it would be a gigantic demo, so we won’t be doing a demo.”

Damn, that’s a bummer. We do hope the game’s worth the wait.

Recently, game designer Todd Howard said they wouldn’t be dumbing down the game for wider audiences. He also said they’re looking to improve NPC interactions in Skyrim.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim releases on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC on November 11 this year.
