Vampires and vampirism have been officially announced.
Source.

I'm going to go broke this Nov.

Just get Elder Scrolls 5, should keep you busy long enough that you won't have to get anything for a while and then when you go to buy a new game you will noticed all the money you saved by avoiding everything else in your life. Like I'll do.

That's what I'm aiming for.

And the devs said to the fan base, let there be info dump!

Gonna be tough to build a character in advance without knowing which ability branches where...
Will that stop me?
NOPE!

Thats what third playthroughs are for.

Liking alchemy and sneak. Not sure what to make my third main skill tree though; illusion, enchanting, and one hand weapons all seem nice.

EDIT: Press release!

Achievements/trophy list is now public:

I'm assuming that the Shields are towns?

I've already begun plotting my route. ^.^

Still really looking forward to this. Gotta say though, that after playing Dark Souls and summoning phantom players to fight alongside me, Skyrim might seem a little lonely.
Meh. I'll buy a horse.

Knowing you, your map route has the entire map covered on one big red circle. :-p

To do list:
1. Go everywhere.
2. Do every quest.
3. Kill EVERYTHING.
4. Steal all their stuff.
5. ????
6. Profit!

Wouldn't step 5 simply be "visit vendor"?

And, yeah that's pretty much it, Liam. except it's more of a spiral. Start in the middle and make like a nautilus shell.

Wait, 5 should actually be "Find all the Easter Eggs". There are bound to be tons of those hidden about.

$10 says Adoring Fan corpse/tomb.

I'll raise you 12.

Lol.

OHSHIT.
One month.
Ohmanohmanohman.

You've lost me.

The game comes out in exactly one month.
Squee.

Oh. Duh.
I somehow misread that as "One Mouth". I started searching through the TES lore looking for a character/monster/something by that name. Thought we were still talking about likely references. lol

Wish it would hurry up! I'm looking at all my games last night trying to decide what to play and all I wanted was this. Then I went and played .hack on the PS2... I NEED NEW GAME!

Daaaark Soooooouls.
Do eeet.

Of course, if you're still without internet now, then that might take something away from it.
