Story behind Dovahkiin

Post » Fri Jan 25, 2013 9:34 am

HI, im not sure if its my ocd, but i am insanly obsessed with the "dovahkiin" in the live action trailers and ingame. hes everywhere and him and is armor are icons of skyrim. by the gods he is sixy, and i cant really tell whats up with him. hes not like any nords, he doesnt seem to mind disturbing nordic tomb sites. i know he is from cyridel but i cant really understand. why is he used in trailers? im guessing the supervisor was looking at beta testers and saw someone fighting legendary dragons with iron armor, and thought "thats great we use that" his pictures are everywhere and i cant understand them. why doesnt skyrim look that good? he has lots of steam and his studded armor looks great. totaly different ingame. and the kill moves are different to then ingame trailer, like how he slices the dragon when its flying and he falls back. sorry im rambling, but i really mean is what is with this certain nord and what is he called?
btw sorry for bad english

Marketing. Everything looks better when it's in the showroom.

It's all marketing, he has no name, and will never have a name, for many people (myself included) he will never even exist as My female Nord is the Dragonborn. As for the look of Skyrim trailers usually look better than gameplay just the way it works; again marketing.
