    Great to know a designer of this game. Congrats to you Worm God. Cool project to be a part of. Graphics are amazing (xbox 360). Since you are above autographing but not above self promotion I feel I can share some observations with you.
    Graphics being top notch is all fine, but game play is lacking a bit. During exploration runs I find that nothing that I kill has anything worth while. For example after taking down a dozen vampires you gain nothing but crap off their bodies, no powers. All the same swords, armor, etc. Grab their gold and move on I guess. This is true for almost everything I kill (besides Dragons). It's almost useless venturing off on a side quest because the rewards are next to nothing. Your not going to find something really cool by sneaking off to look in a treasure chest.
    There is also alot of dead ends off the beaten paths, you can not freely roam around everywhere, also if I'm on horseback I have to hop off in order to fight, there is no reason I shouldn't be able to shoot my bow or throw sparks from a horse. With all that said, Skyrim will and should get awards for it's graphics and many ingame advancements.

    Thanks for the kind words guys, my much needed vacation has ended however.

    djvx, all points noted. Sadly, that can be the case when making sandbox titles. The problem is, everyone plays it different so without making it linear, it's sometimes hard to make every turned corner exciting. But oh, if we could....

    I got the gigantic 600 plus page guide coming from Amazon. Will I find your name in it?

    I didnt see it. And if I am not mistaken a single guy wrote the book. I think that is what I heard on G4.

    Yeah, it makes sense that a guy who wrote a 600 page game strategy guide would be single.
