Because I'm busy, legolass pointed me the direction of some improve screens which have been added (only two new-ish ones)

Two things; first I laughed at the evolution of the khajiit picture, mostly because of the topless khajiit ; secondly I hope you don't have to have the morrowind khajiit look in skyrim.

From what I've gathered, I believe the Beast races stand erect like Oblivion's, but have different walking animations..I could be wrong though...

There were one or two in Morrowind, but there wasn't many faces to begin with...

I'd imagine that in Skyrim that there will be sliders for 'facial' hair (tufts); you'll probably be able to reduce them to nothing or have an option to remove them

Ahhhh!!! No more!!! I'm already too excited!!! The pictures are amazing. I see it as an actual picture or recorded video. Bethesda has always seemed to be on top of graphics. Even way back in arena (compared to all of the other games)

I like the changes. I noticed that, when comparing the in-game appearance of Bosmer to the Lore presentation of them, the in-game version was always significantly less formidible, which I thought a bit out of place. They seem a bit more wild now. It suits them.

And heaven in a wild flower,

I dont know it might just be me, but I still feel like the Argonians are too thin compared to the other races, I might just end up playing as an Imperial if thats the case.

What do you mean by 'too thin'?

I actually think the Argonians look very much improved, so I am a happy Argonian lover :D

As in they lack the muscle literally every other race, has compare a Nord to an Argonian, you'll see what I mean, and don't say they shouldn't be as buff because that should be up to the player.

Could have been the customisation chosen when the Argonians we've seen were created. Seeing as you can choose the amount of muscle your character will have now.

Okay thats a bit of a relief then, I always aim for a 'standing' crocodile more than a 'lizard man' when I made an Argonian character.

When I first saw the Argonian screenshot the first day it was released, Jurassic Park went through my head. Just sayin' :P

Word, It's sick how they're actually more like Raptor/Dinosaur men than Lizard people, now if only they could be hunched by just a little bit, then it would be perfect.

Well, I think my Morrowind Argonian looks cooler :roll:

But really, I think the Skyrim Argonian is cool looking, hunched or not IMO

Khajiit finally look badass! I always liked the concept of the race, but they always looked like silly kitties to me. I've had a couple of secondary Khajiit characters, but they never looked... well, badass enough. Skyrim will be the first TES game in which i'll be a Khajiit during my first (and probably longest) playthrough. Rowr.

New Video with quite a bit of voice acting, credit to dubq for finding it first

*Warning: contains minor spoilers hinting at the story*

The acting is much more....serious this time around, my favorite part is "Khajiit has wares, if you have coin"

If you look in the video, you'll notice both Khajiit and Argonians have normal legs like the other races (You even see a female Khajiit sitting)
