Spoiler:
There's (was?) a video out there on youtube with a guy playing the werewolve questline you mentioned earlier. And at one point the companion takes you to a bowled table and proceeds to cut a scar on another companion (he's in werewolve form) to get hes blood sample. He then pours it into the bowled table (extremely much blood , lol) and your allowed to drink it and get the disease.
I saw this, and I'm extremely bummed out with one thing (though i loved everything else)

This got confirmed because on one of the leaks the player switched freon 1st to 3rd person after becoming a werewolf and people assumed he had been forced to do that. There are video that show it is not true + this from a Pete tweet:

@DCDeacon I heard a rumor that under some circomstances, you can only fight/combat in 3rd person perspective, is this really true?? Thanks!

I literally just saw the most FANTASTIC footage ever!!!!!

THIS FOOTAGE IS AMAZING

It shows someone playing/killing/feeding/sprinting(like a wolf) and it is so worth watching

I'm excited about the return of werewolves (never got round to doing it in Morrowind) but until I see some solid proof that you can become one (don't really trust leaks tbh) I'm not gonna hype myself up.
A hero can be anyone, even a man doing some as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a young boy's shoulders to let him know the world hadn't ended.

go to youtube, modify the url so that it has leaked content - do not post it after the dot com.

theres some proof there and if the video is still up and you can see this comment you won't be disappointed =D

I don't know really, It's the internet in general and hate getting my hopes up for something. Always prefer solid proof :D

and @ Osiris I will check it out if I can find the footage.

EDIT: seems most of the videos have been taken down on youtube, oh well I will wait for the game and find out myself :)

So, this means that we aren't sure if werewolves will have first person? I never fought in 3rd person in oblivion, my camera always aimed in random directions. Werewolves should have it. It added great affect with the red tinted screen in bloodmoon

Do you think we can run on all fours like in morrowind or only for a short period of time (the video shows a quick burst of speed). I liked how in bloodmoon you could run around like a wolf as long as you want. It adds a cool effect

Whatever happened to the producer, or who ever, saying there were no werewolves in skyrim?

They never really denied it, only declined to talk about it, IIRC.

I just saw some gameplay, and they actually look pretty good. I'll definitely play as one at some point. Probably while a Bosmer.

Also, I don't think the third-person lock is really a bad thing. It seems as though the controls are kinda simplified, with each hand only attacking with one sweeping animation. Between this and the movement speed, I think third-person works pretty well.

There is no third person lock, the vidio the guy did it so you can see the werewolf, you can be in 1st person

I think the only time there was a definite no, it was from the Art Director and the interview itself was translated from a different language.

The pirated games of skyrim and when they asked why they lied to us about werewolfs they just say
"We never said they where not in" (Which is ture)

Hmmmmm I don't know if this can be seen as leaked or not, but Gamespy had an article on werewolves here.

Perhaps one of my characters should be a hunter of vampires and werewolves. Van Helsing style. 8)
