I thought of it less as POTC music than Viking-style music, since Skyrim is Nord territory, and Nords have a definite Viking vibe to them.Wayneguard said:Ok I just watched the Skyrim reveal trailer and I have one question... what's with the fucking pirates of the carribean music? Oblivion had that pirates of the carribean-esque theme and I heard the same riff at the end of the skyrim trailer. I can't stand that theme; it just sounds so generic. Not to fawn on morrowind again, but it had such an epic yet peaceful theme with beautiful crescendos and decrescendos... God I love that theme. That quality was sorely lacking with oblivion's and now apparently skyrim's.
Also, from Nick B. (BGS)Seeing lots of speculation about #tesv game engine. It's brand new... and it's spectacular!
We can now confirm that the TES V: Skyrim engine is all-new. And it looks fantastic.

Upon seeing that, my face slacked into a brain-dead grin akin to this:Ophiuchus said:In that case, prepare to be very surprised, as I just was.MiracleOfSound said:The company is no more, but Beth have been working on the game for 2 years so I'd be very surprised if it's not built on Gamebryo.Rickyvantof said:I believe Gamebryo is no more.

Also, varied spell animations. I'm sick of my 100 damage fireball looking the same as Flare.
