Says on UESPwiki that you'll be able to travel to Solstheim. Dear god!
Edit: seems that there already was a topic regarding that matter, oh well. This post has been edited by Bolzmania: Nov 5 2012, 05:22 PM -------------------- "When a man lies, he murders some part of the world"

I have to admit this looks like a lot of fun. I loved the little glimpses we had to the new Solstheim, especially the Dunmer city, where I noted some distinctly Redoran-style bug shell buildings. Not to mention a return of the mushroom trees (which were in Morrowind before the Shivering Isles). I also noticed an arena, for those pining for one in Skyrim.
The ship ride there looked very intriguing too. I wonder if that was a pre-done cutscene you get when traveling from Skyrim to Solstheim, or if it was real-time (which would mean being able to sail on ships in real time in the game!) The big bad sounds interesting too. A dragon-born bad guy. (and he does look like the teacher from The Wall! ) I am not sure how this guy "devouring them" is any different from the player character eating dragon souls though... I am just hoping that you will not have to finish the main quest before doing this. Or a workaround becomes available. Otherwise I will never be able to play this.I think the big bad is using the Peryite follower's puke effect too. Eeewwww! And was that old school zombies I saw? Looks like another X-Box exclusive again too. So much for it being the first two DLCs. I guess Microsoft ponied up another bribe so their console could get special treatment. Not that Bethesda ever intends to release it on PS3 of course. Makes me wonder why Microsoft is bothering with bribery in the first place? With the PC version being on Windows only, it is still on their platform. This post has been edited by SubRosa: Nov 5 2012, 09:11 PM -------------------- |

I am SUPER excited about this. I was not excited about Dawnguard, and I loved it. So, wow. VERY excited.

Honestly, it looks like Bethesda has finally figured out how to sell DLC to fans of their games. There was a huge outcry for crossbows, vampires, some of the armors from MW, a housing DLC, and a visit to another part of Tamriel. I also like that in the last dlc they
I wish they'd make an expansive DLC that explained just how the dwarves were wiped out. Finally give us the answer on what happened to them. Then again some things are best left as mysteries I suppose. It is very possible that no matter what they came up with at this point it would never satisfy the fans. I'll be buying the new DLC just to revisit Solthseim and see some of the old sights in high definition plus a few new places it seems. Riding dragons doesn't interest me a whole lot personally but I can see the allure, lots of people have thought it'd be fun.

I also think that this "Fighting another Dragonborn" is a great idea. After all, There Can Be Only One. Extra bonus points if he's the equivalent of the Kurgan. I wonder if I can get Clancy Brown to do some side-job voice work before the next season of Spongebob Squarepants starts production...

Early in the Main Quest Arngeir warns against being tempted into the arrogance of power that has been the downfall of many Dragonborn who came before. That sounded very promising to me. Maybe this new content will fulfill it, or at least provide more for the anti-hero to work with.

Finally some news for PC and PS3 players

Got to say, it's good of Bethesda to give PS3 owners a reduction in the DLC, considering that they've got a bit of a bum deal. I can see a good number of companies not even bothering doing that sort of thing. |

Yay! Still, I think I’ll pass on the 50% off Dragonborn during launch week just to see if it ends up as a disaster (PS3).
Thanks for the update!  . This post has been edited by Grits: Jan 18 2013, 08:54 PM -------------------- Jerric's Story * Darnandex * Screenshot: Cyrodiil Meadow |

Annoying that they've kept it to only one week if you ask me.
But at the same time I'm so glad it's finally here for the PS3, we really got shafted. -------------------- Have you ever thought about taking the dark and thorny path?
