Dutch forum PS3inside has released some new formation about Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, detailing gameplay information, content, and features. You can find a Google Translate version of the post here, but our crack team of translator cyborgs has made sense of the information for you.

Players can earn money by chopping up lumber, and can craft their own weapons

The tallest mountain in the game can be climbed, but the snowfall gets increasingly heavy as you ascend

The game will feature 150 dungeons, every one of which are different

If you're particularly interested in the back story of the Elderscrolls series, you can hunt down all 300 books in the game

The game will have 18 skill sets, however the Acrobatic and Athletic skills might have been removed for Skyrim

The skills are each indicated by a constellation of stars, and as they level up can unlock perks, of which there are 280 in the game

On the console version of the game, the shoulder buttons will each apply to a hand of the character

The melee combat is apparently very realistic, with the height of the shield being an issue as to protecting your character and judging the distance to your opponent

There are specific spells that can force characters/monsters/etc to run away or fight for you.
