The intro is horrible!

The intro of the game is horrible!

No CGI, no subtitles, is hyper pixelated ...

I expected much more after those videos from E3 and "The Arrival". :(
Sorry for my English. I know it isn't very good. :s

    I disagree, I came here to the forums just now to ask if there is a way to re-watch the intro because I enjoyed it. It's the same as with Skyrim when you first enter the game in the back of the horse carriage, there's no need for CGI because the intro leads straight to the character creator, just like other ES games, they did it right. You can connect with the story/characters much better imo when they use the in-game engine. I will agree with you that it was pretty pixelated though, and I am confused as to why neither of the two cinematic trailers aren't anywhere to be found in the game.

    I strongly disagree the intro sucked me in like no other game. I think if it had been CGI it would have been jarring.

    I liked the intro.

    The only flaw in my opinion was the pixelation.

    The intro area (and "foggy" dungeon environments in general) also seems to put a big dent in framerates compared to most other places.

    i liked the intro, but it did look pretty pixilated...i do like how it wasn't CGI so it makes you feel like it is part of your game, you continue where the video ended like it was your game.

    the problem i have with it is that if you watch it, you can't zoom into your character or hear its voice when you are creating. idk if this is always but i know it happened for me and 5 of my friends. i am pissed off that i couldnt zoom in and ended up creating an ugly character because i didnt know that was the problem at the time.

    I accidently skipped the intro and still had no zoom for character creation. Then the servers went down before I was able to finish the character.

    The intro was great, but the resolution could have been a bit better...

    I very much liked it... the whole ritual stuff and the camera flying through Coldharbor, wit hthe music rising actually gave me goose bumps... reminded me alittle of Oblivion.
