The title says it all :)

Excited or not? I for one, am! :)

Yay.

I'm stoked, but reservedly so.

About what? The title? Or some old guy's voice acting?

Hey, that's supposedly Max Von Sydow. If he's attached to the game, then you know at least one character is gonna have some pretty decent voice acting.

Maybe even 5 minutes of it.

You almost feel like you have a new console when you see the game.

This can only mean good things for PC users, of course.

New engine too.

Since Skyrim is the far northland I'm wondering if it will feel restricted, foliage- and weather-wise to all ice and snow. I recall an Oblivion quest up north which was fine as a contrast but an entire game in white does not at first excite. But that doesn't mean much until we get to see and hear more about it.

Well, it's the only game I wait for even so. :)

I'll buy it if one of developers states the following, signs it, and is cursed by a gypsy witch if he lies:

Quote:

Instead of predefined quests, the game will feature plot seeds which evolve through the player's actions and interactions with the world and NPCs. Based on the attitude of the player in conversations and his/her choice of whom to aid, rob, kill or betray, the world will change- instead of capsuled microcosms within a quest or area, the consequences will have the reach to open and close ways to the player further ahead in the game. NPCs have a simulated personality with goals, preferences and way of doing things, and as the game keeps a log of past events it calculates the next move of factions according to the current situation.
