Bethesda reveals Skyrim Dark elf

[Phlakes]

Considering how they looked in Oblivion-

-well, Bethesda has made me a very happy green llama-phallus thing.

 

[Valdsator]

if they have the morrowind voice i'm going dunmer. hell yeah.

Oh man, I've completely forgotten about that voice. It would fit so well with this new appearance!

 

[Imperium9990]

Pssh. I'd rather see Argonian... Though I guess he looks kind of cool. Not really digging the top knot though.

 

[Blackout62]

Personally i think it looks effin awesome

Don't you mean "elfin" awesome.

Wait a few years then you can shoot me for that pun.

Bethesda released a screenshot of a Dark elf thief

OH COME ON

Regarding the image, that's the second most Japanese-looking elf I've ever seen!

Looks fucking cool though.

Well that looks generic.

 

[Kedos]

Well that looks generic.

It's the Elder Scrolls

 

[ChupathingyX]

They're going back to the Morrowind style, this is good.

Nothing special, but defiantly better than the bland Dunmer of Oblivion (along with every other race).

 

[Mad World]

That actually looks really awesome. Outfit is sick, too!

 

[Voulan]

It looks like a definite improvement! I still want to see what a female would look like, though.

But man, those daggers!

 

[Pat8u]

Well that looks generic.

Ive never seen an elf with a beard before

OT:Now I want to see khajjit please

 

[Chaos-Spider]

Wait, I thought Dark Elves were all...you know....Dark. Weren't they all blueish in Oblivion?

Anyway, I'm more exited in the hint that Argonians are next.

The argonians may be next? I want to see what those look like as I almost always roll Argonians and have done so since Morrowind.

 

[Saelune]

Hopefully I can make a Dunmer with a HIGH charisma score...(not looking old and ugly)

 

[ChupathingyX]

Well that looks generic.

Then you've obviously never played Morrowind before.

 

[BlackSaint09]

He looks awesome.

 

[Scars Unseen]

...the ears... ...look like they were taken from other series's versions of what elves looked like. I always roll Dunmer in Elder Scrolls games, and I've never seen one that looked like this.

You seem to have forgotten Morrowind. The ears aren't new.

EDIT: Also, someone posted similar ears to TESNexus quite a while back.

[Cridhe]

I'm thinking zombie-Mitsurugi.

Looks like utter crap to me. Some sort of dark fantasy asian warlord thing. Doesn't even look "dark".

At least it looks better than in the other games. But that's not much of a compliment.

Doesn't even look dark? These are still elves here okay, but compare that one with a High Elf and tell me that ain't dark. Plus, Dark Elves have a wide enough range of skin colours, they can get darker.

But what should a Dark Elf look like then? Here they seem to give them their own flavour, not some reskin like in Oblivion.
