New Skyrim Screenshots - Races

[ShindoL Shill]

the anticipation is better than the arrival.
which is why i'm trying very hard not to orgasm right now.
seriously, they all look epic. i will get in an infection-proof bubble, live the next few months of my life in there, not leave the house, intake many vitamins, exercise, purchase this game, play it and then i can die happy. but hopefully 127 years, 364(or 5) (depending on leap year) days and 24:59:59 hours.

Looks pretty good, I look forward to once again playing as an Argonian.

 

[King of Wei]

They look really cool and all but I'm a little disappointed at the lack of Breton or High Elf pictures. Was kinda hoping to see a crazy mage engulfed in fire and lightning, or something. Am considering playing as one of the beast races for the first time though, they look freakin awesome!

Thanks loads for both the screenshots and the link mate, the screens look awesome (some of those races REALLY changed... and I LOVE it! Particularly the Khajit [though I've seen a previous screenshot of them already]) and the unofficial thread will be good to dig through info now and then

 

[Roofstone]

Yaaay! Argonians. Looks awesome. <3

 

[Pat8u]

What the hell is with the Orcs, man? They look more like Half-Elves. Beyond that they all look good. Definitely going with Khajit or Argonian. Screw the Nords in their little Nord land.

technically they are elves in the elder scrolls universe

OT me need me hunger me kill to get it
GO KHAJJIT also redguards are better looking this time round

 

[SUPA FRANKY]

I'm still playing and Oblivion. Can't wait for Skyrim!

Who here thinks the Khajits should look more like the Thundercats?

 

[Secret world leader (shhh)]

The Argonian's face looks weird, it also blends in perfectly with the stone in the background.
The new Orcs and Khajit look cool though.

 

[Jadak]

Wow, Redguards and Imperials look human now!

pfft, even the Orc barely looks non-human.

Ok, I'm a HUGE elder scrolls fan (like back to arena, the DOS games even) I love TES, but I have to say, I'm increasingly underwhelmed by the news about skyrim.
list of minor complaints here:
1:They all look so generic and gray, it's painful to me...
2:where are the dunmer's red eyes? I can't see them
3:you wouldn't know these bosmer we even elves, if it weren't for their ears
4this is by far the worst for me) WHERE ARE THE ALTMER?!?!?!
I'm outraged at this discrimination xD lol, jk
but seriously, I think these look nowhere near as good as they could. I wouldn't mind the game being pushed back another YEAR, as long as it doesn't dissapoint. This and the rumors of fallout style XP-based leveling, (rather than their signiture skill-leveling)
it looks very dissapointing

on a lighter note, thank you for the pics OP!

 

[spartandude]

all look amazing

 

[spartandude]

actually if im gonna have one complaint, (i dont know if this applies to ES) elves shouldnt have facial hair

but kmy god those Khajiit look incredible, i may have to play one for once

 

[NotAPie]

Gonna be a damn Dark Elf.

 

[Filiecs]

Dark brotherhood assassin Kahjiit here I come!

 

[CrazyCapnMorgan]

IMNSHO, Orc looks too human. I enjoy my burly, big jawed green motherfuckers.

The orc looks too human, but the rest of them are pretty damn awesome.

That's because the Kotaku reviewer made him look like that. Usual orcs still look badass.

That is like taking the old orcs and multiplying by the inverse of the orc in the OP.

In other words, holy shit that orc looks badass!

Please tell me I'm not going to be the only one rolling an Orc male warrior who can cast elemental spells, carring a two-handed Ebony warhammer and wearing Ebony armor, killing dragons while screaming "LOK'TAR OGAR! FOR THE HORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRDE!" in this game.

Please?

 

[The Artificially Prolonged]

Wow they all look fantastic. Love the Argonions and Orcs, to me they never looked right in Oblivion.

 

[Tharwen]

I just had a thought...

Wouldn't it be really dangerous for a Khajiit to use fire spells?

 

[Arkynomicon]

I do hope there will be Orc NPC's that has that Tolkien look to them like the one OP posted. I loved them all except the Khajiits that somehow looks uncanny to me.

 

[Peter Brazier]

the argonian is female but point still valid

 

[Peter Brazier]

no just you
