| Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion - Interview @ HardGamers |
|
The Elder Scrolls site is pointing out an <a href="http://www.hardgamers.com/dossiers.asp?no=257" target="_blank">interview</a> with PR head Pete Hines on Oblivion. Here's a snip on the recent topic de jour:<blockquote><em><b>HG: There’s a lot of controversy about the soft shadows everywhere on the Oblivion fan boards. Can the PC gamers expect a possibility to enable soft shadow as an option? What is the final point on this matter?</b>
<br>
<br>PH: Simply put, we changed the way we do shadows so that the game was actually playable, regardless of platform. The game looks the way it looks in all the screens we've released over the last year or more. It looks the way everyone has seen it who has played the game at any of our press events. It's more a reaction to what might have been than it is a reaction to what actually was.</em></blockquote> |

No soft shadows. The game is ruined. The end.

Shadows would not be a very important feature for me, thou they are still dodging or hoping we will all forget the video released(with audio description of the shadows), which is the only missing media in his list.  |

I never really liked shadows in the first place. I would be quite happy if they didn't have them at all....I hate when an item is obscured because it lays in the shadow of something - almost as bad as games that have levels where you have to squint your eyes because it is too dark and you can't see anything, not everyone has the eyes of a 5 year old. |
