Bethesda shows crazy Skyrim footage at DICE


Bethesda game director and executive producer Todd Howard debuted the below trailer showing new Skyrim features developed by Bethesda employees. None are guaranteed to see release, but among the concepts shown there were dragon mounts, seasonal foliage, new enemies, and all-new weapons and skill trees. Other features seen included Kinect shouts, building houses, adopting children, kill cams for ranged attacks, paralysis runes, moving platforms, running water in dungeons, flaming horses, mounted combat, fat giants, werebears, and more.

The new features are the result of Bethesda's annual “game jam,” a week-long event where employees are allowed to develop anything they want on company time provided they follow a certain theme. This year, the theme merely asked employees to develop things that could be implemented in Skyrim.
