Crime system has been revamped
you're a fan of the Elder Scrolls games, you've probably come across the game's psychic guardsmen who know whether you've committed a crime, regardless of whether it happened right under their nose, or on the other side of the country. You've probably also had to put a torch away to fight some murderous monster, rather than jabbing it in the face with the burning stick in your hand. If either of those are true, then you'll be pleased to know that, in Skyrim, neither will happen.The latest issue of Official PlayStation Magazine contains a whole bunch of new information about the fifth Elder Scrolls game, including changes to the way crime is handled, and what you can fight with. Bounties in Skyrim will not be global, and will instead only apply in the city in which the crime was committed. This means that hiding out in another town will finally be a great way to avoid being arrested. Guards won't be as strong as they've been in previous Elder Scrolls games either, so resisting arrest won't be quite as difficult....
