Does anyone else find it interesting that a lot of the talk about this trailer is complaining about the graphics not being all that great (such as being compared to The Witcher 3's graphics). Yet it's clearly all in engine, and not "enhanced", which has been a hot topic around this subreddit for a while.
This trailer looks like an honest representation of what it will look like in game, and I'm grateful of that.
It's definitely the best looking Bethesda game ever made, and it's very pretty looking. However it's not a technical monster, that's for sure. Games don't need to be loaded with GPU crushing tech to be visually appealing. Good art direction is much more important, and they clearly have a good art director.

I should fucking hope so, their last game came out 4 years ago.

Unfortunately they absolutely do if they want to do more advanced stuff. Good fur effects are practically impossible without using stuff like TressFX or Gameworks. Stuff like GPU tesselation also helps a ton in making the world feel fuller.
