last I heard they were referring to it as 'low' fantasy, which means all the crazy fantasy shit is in the game but it's not all super crazy obvious and cheesy. the example they gave was The Song of Ice and Fire series.
yeah hahah, as I was typing that out I realized 'hmm, this doesn't seem very low fantasy.', but I'm assuming they meant the way the story is presented, in a more serious tone. but that's nothing new for games. oh well! I know it's gonna be bad ass :D
Haha, perhaps that is why in the trailer the characters do 30 foot flips while shooting out magic arrows and effortlessly killing dragons. If low fantasy was what they were shooting for they failed miserably. This is the new shit, gotten off an RPS ad mere minutes ago:
The heads are getting pretty nice. I managed to make a genuinely attractive woman without much difficulty, something I've never managed to do in a Bethesda game (mods don't count). Rest of her isn't very pretty, though. The texture on the armour is what, 128x128? I guess it's starter armour and you'll get rid of it right…
