I don't care what an elder scrolls game could look like....I'm going to be happy if they can get the next one out without it being infested with bugs.

And better combat
And better AI
And better Physics
And better NPC interaction
And....

[YellowTempes]

sequels are always better in all those perspectives you mentioned.

[mgeezy313]

And no!

[denawayne]

@YellowTempes - Are sure about that? Skyrim was very similar to Oblivion in all the categories I mentioned (imo). Yes, Skyrim was overall a better game but not much better than Oblivion. Same engine...same everything

[thekhurg]

@YellowTempes:

Skyrim wasn't.

[PLASTICA-MAN]

I really don't see why the author made the title about Skyrim, the artist only named his work: Environment Work: https://forums.unrealengine...

And BTW the thread exists for a long long time, he just updated more work.

DSOGaming is really looking desperately for free hits. No wonder it is called Dark Side Of gaming.

This map really isn't even that nice. Plus, it's only landscape views. Who knows what it looks like at ground level?

SKYRIM was LEAGUES better then Oblivion in every regard. Oblivion was the 1st crappy ES game. Going into those hell portals was SOOOOO boring. GFX were horrible in the plane of Oblivion. Problem is Morrowind was a hell of a lot better then both. Best plot, best side plots, best characters. The ability to leap frog over mountains and make spells so powerful the literally broke the game. Actually in that area Daggerfall was the best. Become a vampire. Create a regen spell more powerful then the sun damage - be invincible!

if you ask me Oblivion had a waaaaaay better crafting system than skyrim

[LookAtYou]

Like it was unplayable or didn't give gamers over 100's of hours worth of gameplay exploration and customization. Some people I tell you hwat. If there was one game worth the full price tag last gen it damn sure was Skyrim.

[nucky64]

i'll take demon souls any day of the week over skyrim...but that's me.

[That_Guy2u2]

it was fine on the xbox XP

Whatever...

Those are far away, scenic shots.

Show us what it could look like down on the ground, in a wooded area with moving goblins and animals running around. If it still looks this good, THEN i'll be impressed.

[YellowTempes]

And maybe he can hire a team of 100 people from his pockets to do what you're saying??

[CorndogBurglar]

Yeah, that would be pretty impressive too. If he could fit 100 people in his pockets? Seriously. Could you imagine the size of those pockets?

All I'm saying is that those screenshots are not that impressive. Its okay if you are impressed by them. But I am not.

[LookAtYou]

It already looks as good if not better than this...on PC.

[Nerdmaster]

Did anyone here play Lichdom: Battlemage? If the next Elder Scrolls game has something like that battle system, it would be incredible!

[lameguy]

What a garbage article. The guy using UE4 is just experimenting with various things (check their forums) and posting various shots so everyone can learn/comment.

The article, however, somehow throws in the word 'Skyrim' for some cheap hits...

[PLASTICA-MAN]

Look at my comment above. Bubbles up.

[CaptainPunch]

DSOGaming is what's wrong with video game journalism and writing, all their articles are click-bait. Plus that site looks like it was designed in 2004.

[PLASTICA-MAN]

The only for this site to exist is to glorify the fictional Alien PCS those PC Crybabies don't even have and just to downplay the PS4, try show them how good PS4 games look, they will remove your comment.

[Lionsguard]

It looks pretty bad tbh. My modded Skyrim looks far better.

[Clunkyd]

The rocks look kinda odd.

[Jyndal]

I just don't find the images all that impressive. Hell, I'd even say Skyrim's normal vistas look better than this.

[thezeldadoth]

I'm not a fan of skyrim, but those screens look like shit anyways. not very representative of UE4

[Gore-Content]

Unreal engine?? Give me a break.

[darneson69]

I think someone needs to make a full room of that stretch material stuff and use the whole room as a screen as if you are really there. c r u s h b o r e d . c o m

[feraldrgn]

I just want to know what the "next title" will look & play like.
Though it'll be a no buy if it's infested with gamebreaking bugs again.
