Bethesda Introduces Skyrim's New Faces

EDIT: Snipped because of stupid internets double posting. Much sorries.

Umm, why did my post go away?

Anyway, the top far right orc looks like Kong.

I really like these. It'll be nice to play a game without having to download user made mods to pretty it up. Not to say that some of these are pretty, but they look good.

And i see people commenting on the long necked-ness (heh, nekkid) of the female Khajit. I think they were angling for a sort of Egyptian look for them.

Yikes! One of the nords (the very first one) looks so much like brother it's kind of frightening.

Meh, I don't care about pre-sets I never use them, as a rule, ever.

Your brother is WWE's Edge?

As if I couldn't get any more hyped for this game! Finally, we have beards in an Elder Scrolls game (not counting Sheogorath.)

I really needed these screens, especially since I won't be getting Battlefield 3 now because Origin, come to find out, lets EA spy on you. Biggest letdown of '11! >:'-(

 

[LazyAza]

Wow are those some hideous character models.

 

[ChupathingyX]

Why do they all look like they've had dirt thrown at their face?

To be honest the majority look pretty horrible.

 

[LadyRhian]

My only big problem with the pictures is that many of the characters seem to have incipent black eyes (they look reddish and swollen around the undereye area). Other than that, good. But I keep feeling like these characters were just in some massive bar brawl before their headshots were taken.

All the negative comments here seem to be from people expecting Final Fantasy-esque faces.

This is set in the cold, grim north. No time for skin cream, hair gel, and lotions.

You summed up my thoughts perfectly. For this I thank you.

OT: The argonians look SWEET. I get a serpent vibe form them and I am very keen to play this game.

CANT WAIT!!! The more I see, the more I want to play!! Hurry up November!!! I'm a big Khajiit fan, that's what I normally play, the necks look a little long but remember these are presets, I'm sure you can alter that.

fair enough, but there will be some tweaking required to the default females to make them look "pretty", but the good thing is it looks like it will be possible in Skyrim, not the bloated dappy eyed monstrosities in Oblivion...

Dark elves (fav race!) are looking sa-weet!

Uhhgg another Bethesda fail fest, another 60 hours of mutant CG random morph target swapped messes await me. I love the games but seriously Bethesda, fire all of your character modelers and everyone making decisions about character modeling. This is game 5 and the rest of the character modelers in the industry are still laughing at you. How can you have such an awesome environment modeling team and such a waste of a character modeling team.

If only uncanny valley where the beginning of it, the facial proportions are just plain wrong and awkward. Splotchy Textures. Obvious use of morph targets to create variations. Dull blank dead expressions. The list goes on.

Hate to rant and complain but it seems like they just don't listen, or can't see forest from the trees. More likely they don't care because their games sell like hot cakes, which is fair because all that matters to me in the end is the quality of the "game".

That being said, I'm still buying it and looking forward to Skyrim.

 

[Airsoftslayer93]

These are of course defaults, you can put more variety in by yourself.

 

[Spudgun Man]

Looks like that's my sleep for the week gone, those argonians are going to haunt me to the end.

Obvious troll is obvious, you get +1 for effort though. You need to be more edgy, and more assumptions, you can never have too few assumptions. Also be more nit picky instead of all out denial, the stark contrast between reality and your post is what gives you away. I hate to rant and complain but all that matters to me is the quality of your trolling.

But like I said +1 for effort would read again.

Id laugh if a few days before release they realised that they spent so much time making these models, they forgot textures for 90% of the map.

 

[Alanosborn1991]

Still waiting on a full CC Vid with all hairstyles shown n such. Man I wish I could mod Xbox's to my hearts content like on Nexus forums

 

[Fertro]

Lovin' those bushy sideburns that look like they're from the 1800's. I have some similar, but they're not quite as bushy. People say I look like a cartoony Scottish golfer.
