Daedric Armor and the CGI trailers.

I know i'm going to take some fire for this.. but...

i recently got a daedric motif i enjoy it don't get me wrong, i think the daedric styles are very... unique and quite detailed.
but... i have got to say.. it's quite a bit different from daedric styles I (As an elder scrolls fan) am used too.
but most of all... my question here is...
Why exactly doesn't the daedric armor (lets just say heavy armor for the arguments sake) look like the daedric armor worn by say.. the knights in the the arrival trailer?

Real world answer: Because the concept art changed as they continued game development.

RP answer: Because daedra are flighty creatures who change their minds a lot.

I would have also accepted, because this is set 1000 years before skyrim, and the daedric weapons/armor were made by the skilled craftsmen they enslaved up until that point in time.

but that doesn't change the fact that i want cooler looking armor!

In all seriousness though, i really hope that that particular style of daedric armor isn't completely off the table, it's a cool set, and it's near and dear to me as a TES fan, i really hope they add it in the future.

Daedric Armor sucks in this game.

They should change it to look like Daedric Armor always has in TES games and the way it does in their own trailers.
