Solstheim, The next DLC Options

[SubRosa]

Looks like the next DLC will be named Dragonborn, and is set in Solstheim. The 1.8 patch has things in it such as bonemold, chitin, stahlrim, and nordic armor in it. There are new mapmarkers, and locations such as Raven Rock, Castle Karstagg, and more. Plus there a record for an .esm named Dragonborn. Flying on a dragon also seems in the works.

I am a little surprised they would be taking us back there, given that Solstheim was already in an expansion for Morrowind. But it does sound a lot more interesting than Dawnguard, and a lot more meaty than Hearthfire. It should be a good-sized land-mass for us to explore. That is guaranteed to be fun and give us lots more hours of play. Much like Point Lookout was for FO3, only without the mutant inbred Jeds and having part of our brain carved out and put in a jar.

I am also looking forward to seeing those armors in Skyrim. They are my favorites from Morrowind. Especially the bonemold. Seeing them back in hi-res (at least when the modding community remakes the textures that Bethesda releases! ) will be excellent.

EDIT: I figured it out. I still think it has something to do with the patch, but I figured it out. Okay.

My Xbox is not hooked up to the Internet, unless I manually put a cable on it. So that's what I did last night, and I downloaded update 1.8 and Dragonborn. Apparently, the way we actually cast spells on Xbox is now different. I feel like a klutz as I admit this, and there's probably information out there that EVERYONE knows but me...but just in case some of you all get stuck with this one...

To cast spells before 1.8, I had to hold down the button, let it go briefly, but then tap it quickly just after letting it go. After 1.8 the "tap" is no longer required. All I gotta do is hold down the spell and then let it go. Spell works.

*facepalm*

That glitch isn't as annoying as the missing cell glitch. One room in my house is completely blue and weird. I can apparently walk through walls and fall through floors.
