xboxadvanced.com has a 20 new videos up from GDC (as well as new screens), and I have to say that my worst fears have come true. I was expecting huge, walk-anywhere environments like Morrowind's, but instead it looks like it'll be closed off and in sections like Zelda or KOTOR. That, along with the ability to have an incredible amount of customization for your character, is one of the main things that drew me to this game, and with that aspect gone... it's no longer my most-anticipated game of the year. I'm still really looking forward to it, but the devs turned their back on the "there are no backgrounds, you can go anywhere" comment from so many years ago and that is a massive dissapointment for me. I think I'm going to find a nice corner and cry for a little while. :(
