To be fair, a lot of what was in the trailer/gameplay previews was rubbish (talking to giants etc...)
Not that one, I'm talking about the very first gameplay shown, not with commentary.
The giants have an option to speak to but with little point in even trying.
I've found a lot of the locations from after he runs down the path, some are obvious such as Solitude, Windhelm and Whiterun, others not so much such as the forest with the head statue thing on the floor which I found near Falkreath.
If any1 knows where this place is I'd quite like to know, but quite frankly, I don't think it's there and I'm begging to wonder how much of what was shown is Skyrim, because quite frankly, I wish my copy of skyrim looked that good.
