So Bethesda announced that Hearthfire, a piece of shiny new DLC, will be coming out in just a few days time.

Check it out

I for one am super super excited. What do you all think?

Next skyrim DLC, the player gets a job and then has to start paying taxes and household bills along with butt-wiping and toilet scrubbing animations.

And yet I am, and live—like vapours tossed.
I long for scenes where man hath never trod
A place where woman never smiled or wept
There to abide with my Creator, God,
And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept,
Untroubling and untroubled where I lie
The grass below—above the vaulted sky.”

McB: I'm sorry! Jeez it sounds like you've got some of America's yuckiest foods over there! Granted, I'm a vegetarian so I guess I'm biased.

I would not be opposed to taxes. Back in my tabletop days (DnD, TFT, etc.) we actually did incorporate taxation rules, along with all sorts of other things like feudalism, into our gameplay. I doubt this will ever happen in vanilla TES, but I am digging the fact that we must use materials to build the house. That it doesn't just show up because we throw some gold around.

It would indeed be awesome for the immersion! But I am sure many people would whine that the ES is looking more like the Sims, but the fact is that its an RPG means Bethesda can add as much immersion as they want. I like the materials we get to use too! It is going to be fun . . . if they even release it for the PS3. Gstaff in the official forums said they aren't sure if Dawnguard will make it to the PS3 . . now my dark fantasies are ruined! RUINED!

Anyways, I wonder what the next DLC will be. So far everything in the DLC and patches have been seen in Game Jam.

Gamejam content that made it into the game:

Mounted Combat.
Kill-cams with archery and spells.
New Mounts(Arvak)
Underwater graphics.
Water currents in dungeons(Dawnguard)
Vampire Lords
New Vampire feeding animation.
Lycanthropy Perk Tree
Wayshrines(Dawnguard)
Kinetic Shouts
Ice and fire arrows(Dawnguard adds explosive fire bolts)


So, I wonder what will be added next. The only way I see Bethesda adding spears is if they add werebears. Anyone read the Infernal City where half-naked Nordic werebears hunted people down with spears in the Hunting Grounds? I see Bethesda honoring that with adding the Hunting Grounds as a new realm and werebears as a new faction.

Honestly, I think they should drop the werebear stuff and focus on other things such as the Thalmor, and the Psijiic Order and etc. Then leave werebears for last and truly focus their time and effort to make that "Hunter's DLC" the best one! Imagine the Hunting Grounds the size of the Shivering Isles?! A true expansion! Oh man! I feel like going outside and hunting!
