Here is some basic info about Skyrim I got from this site:
http://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/955624-the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim/
Or you could just look at it here, since I corrected some of the things he didnt know, got wrong, or didnt even put in, but I don't have pictures :O
It's not too in depth about it but again it's just basic information,
So, here you go:
* Third person view has been very very much improved
* 5 massive cities, lots of small towns
* 9 different holds
* Separate bounty per hold
* Crime/Thief system improved
* There is an option for no HUD.
* On Conversations: Conversations aren't done in a zoomed in static shot anymore.Start a conversation with some and they will act like someone would in real life, looking at you occasionally and walking around a bit and also continue doing a task if they were doing one while talking.
* On Weapon smithing: Go to a forge and carve a new weapon out of red hot metal.
* Dual-wielding: you have two hands now in combat and you can wield anything to both hands. You may assign a dagger on left hand and use a mace with right hand. The choice as they say is yours.
* Duel: You may duel any NPC on the streets western style.
* Inheritance: When you kill a shopkeeper, his/her family member will inherit the shop and will be angry about you, but stil give you quest, so, no more killing quest givers! (Unless you kill the whole family :O)
* Level-scaling: Enemies won't entirely level to you
* 18 skills
* No mysticism, spells put in other groups
* Perks: Will be in Skyrim (YES!)
* Boosts: Pick stamina, health, magic boosts on level up, so know more deciding what to level up. (YAY!)
* Enchanting: This skill makes a nice return.
* Radiant storytelling: "The game eventually logs a huge storehouse of knowledge about how you've played, and subsequently tailors content to your capabilities and experiences. Entering a city, a young woman might approach you and beg you to save her daughter from kidnappers. The game will look at the nearby dungeons you've explored, automatically set the mission in a place you've never visited, and designate opponents that are appropriately matched to your strengths and weaknesses."
* Fast-Travel: As you probably expect, you can instantly travel to previous locations with a tap of the button
* Sprinting: You can now sprint about! (At the cost of Stamina)
* Town visiting: You may do more in towns, like tailor weapons, cooking, farming or mining. Not much details about this or how detailed they are as jobs.
* Dynamic Shadows
* Improved Faces/Improved Models Example: Faces have been dramatically overhauled. Characters now exhibit more emotion show of distinctions between different races and just plain looks better.
* Radiant AI
* Updated Engine Snow falls dynamically (not as a basic texture on the ground)
* Trees and branches move independently with the wind
* Water flows
* Beards :P
* You can't run backwards as fast as you do forward.
* 10 races to choose from (Holy crap thats a lot of races)
* Confirmed creatures: zombies, skeletons, trolls, giants, ice wraiths, giant spiders, dragons, wolves, horses Elk, mammoth, saber-toothed cats
* Presumably open cities (as dragons can attack)
* Hud-free first-person view and much improved third-person perspective
* Very unique landscapes! Also, actual unique dungeons!
* Character creation improved, body features customizable. (YAY!)
* 2-handed weapons and duel wielding confirmed.
* Finishing moves, unique to each weapon and enemy you fight.
* Dialog will pop up when you approach an enemy
* Cooking/farming/mining/woodcutting/blacksmithing are all possible
* Perk picking at every level-up (Can save up perks)
* 5 Magic Schools Destruction Alteration Conjuration Restoration Illusion.
