http://twitter.com/#!/DCDeacon/status/165536529895272449 Cant wait! I wonder what the surprise is, hopefully they announce a DLC or maybe give us a small content patch for free? Or maybe Horse Armor! :D Will be great to get the mods into steam workshop aswell, just 1 click to install mods and they will always auto-update :) Currently Playing Path of Exile |

Looking forward to creation kit and mods this year but zero intrest in DLC i still see it as content that already should have been in game now they hope grabbing some extra money. If you make 500+million EUROS with game in first few months DLC should be free for fans. I boycot all DLC for all games sinds 2006. Two worlds 1 i got a huge expansion for free. Devinity 2 Ego draconis released a free expansion The Witcher 2 gave free DLC. I can understand when they release a expansion like with Dragon age Origin Awakening they ask money for it it was huge and nice expansion but most DLC are crap and little content that should be free. For Skyrim im looking forward to patches that improve game(way to slow bethesda release patches btw for PC) and MODS, DLC they can shuf it up there...... well you know what i mean:P I quit Guildwars 2 for now im fed up with empty world:(... played:AC-Darktide,AC2-Darktide,L2 and Darkfall.Solo Fav games:Morrowind,DayZ(PLAYING NOW), Skyrim, Bioshock, Age of Empires 2, Soldiers of fortune 2 and many more... |

And while we are at it, Prima guides are like that too. Have not bought one in years. Why? Well, most of that stuff used to come in the game's instruction manual... with your $30 game cartridge. Error: 37. Signature not found. Please connect to my server for signature access. |

I am also looking forward to the release of the CK, what the modder's have done o far has been great, now with the CK I bet teh mod's are just gonna be that much better. Atleast with the latest patch, Skyrim is running much more smooth on ultra setting's i saw a 15fps increase over all. |

Originally posted by forest-nl I might sound ignorant here, but other than The Witcher 2, were those other two games really any good to begin with? If not, did those freebies make them any better? |

Rumour is that the surprise is an official highres texture pack. I sure would appreciate that :) While the highres mods are overall pretty good, there are alot of bad textures in there, either way too high res to be necessary or just very messy. |

Yeah you are right, but hopefully they release a full fledged expansion eventually like they did for Oblivion, i will most likley still buy all the small DLC's they launch though
Also, Skyrim is alot bigger game and has loads of more conent then Two Worlds (the game also kinda sucked), Divinity and The Witcher 2 (just guessing, havent gotten around to play it yet) and Skyrim does kinda get alot of free content through great mods etc. Not sure if Diviniy, Two Worlds etc gets that? But yea, it still wouldnt hurt if Bethesda released a couple of free DLC's Hopefully they arent as greedy as with Oblivion though and release Horse Armor etc that you gotta pay for lol Currently Playing Path of Exile |

I'm looking forward to trying out Skyrim mods, even though i'm still having a blast playing the game with my fourth character. Now that they got that kit out, high priority should be adding additional provinces. I would shell out the Septims for that. |

The witcher games are big games, think of them as a midway point between the bioware style rpg and the bethseda style rpg

Originally posted by forest-nl DLC = mini expansions, and just like expansions, theres shit ones and good ones.
saying that DLC should have been in teh game purely because of the fact its smaller than an expansions is just pure ignorance. Apparently stating the truth in my sig is "trolling" |

Originally posted by warmaster670 DLC coming soon after a game is released is sheisty, and should have been part of the original game. But Skyrim has been out almost 4 months, so I can cut some slack. It doesn't seem like it's been that long, but it has. "I have only two out of my company and 20 out of some other company. We need support, but it is almost suicide to try to get it here as we are swept by machine gun fire and a constant barrage is on us. I have no one on my left and only a few on my right. I will hold."

Originally posted by forest-nl Sorry but aside from the horse armor debacle Bethesda's DLCs are usually true expansions. Shivering Isles for Oblivion, Tribunal and Bloodmoon for Morrowind were almost another whole games worth of content. I agree with you when some developers release content DLCs that add little to the game but a few extra items but Bethesda's DLCs are usually quite substantial. They are one of the few companies I don't mind paying for DLC as I know the majority of the time I'll get my moneys worth out of it and then some.

To all the DLC haters, stop. Game take a long time to make. For Skyrim to get shipped as is it took a six year development. When you paid your $60 for Skyrim you got an over 100 hour unique gameplay experience. It has to ship. Over the years games have been launched incomplete. My favorite example is Star Wars: Battlefront for the Xbox. The game was massively incomplete, but it shipped. The developers had exceeded their budget for the game and they shipped it when it wasn't done. A year later they finished the game. They shipped Star Wars: Battlefront 2 a year later, the exact same game with better graphics and a narrative campaign. Now let's imagine if DLC existed. Instead of buying a whole new game you could have paid $5 for better textures and $5 for the campaign instead of another $60 for the whole game. DLCs keep the cost of games down. If you want this extra thing you can have it. If you don't want it, you don't have it. But by keeping them as DLC it won't punish consumers nor will it punish developers. And if 200,000 people want horse armor, well that's fine by me. Some things from these modders are pretty good, most are crap. One of the most popular mods for GTA4 PC was one that transformed your main character into The Terminator (T100). I mean, that's fun and all but nothing amazing. You shouldn't think that modders will build anything as signifiant as the UMS developers for SC2. Website: http://www.thegameguru.me / YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/users/thetroublmaker |

Originally posted by Warmaker I have never been able share that sentiment about launch day DLC. Usually when software reaches Gold Master state and sent off to the replicators, there is about a month or two time delay to official release. When that happens the developers begin work on post production and finishing up a DLC for launch day sounds reasonable in that time frame. Plus I rarely see launch day DLC that is not included with new game purchases. Anyways i'm derailing the topic, I'm going to jump on the bandwagon of awesomesauce that is the creation kit :D |

Skyrim does get a lot of stuff through fan made mods, but seeing the quality of fan made stuff even without the creation kit, DLCs and expansion releaased by Bethesda should be exceptional, and not something like a "go to cave x and kill the leader". A whole new faction on par with the ones in the game like the Brotherhood, College of Winterhold or the Thieves guild, so home base, several npcs and quests, faction specific armor, weapons and other items.. The problem with many DLCs is that it's just content cut out of the game right before release for the goal of releasing it as DLC. Especially if it's a DLC within the first month. As it's now the third for Skyrim, this is less likely though. I'll wait to the day's end when the moon is high |

Originally posted by forest-nl i agree to some degree, and disagree to some degree as well. If the game is delivered very well complete then DLC that come with newly created content to expand the game even more are some DLC that i welcome with open arms to buy them. If the game is delivered half way and the devs want to finish the game through DLC to cash the cow, then to hell with DLC (give it free or dont give at all). I have put about 70+ hours into Skyrim and im like lvl 25 i think, i have a blast and besides a couple of bugs the game seems pretty complete so far. I think by the time i reach highest lvl and complete about 100% of game there will be enough DLC with expanded gameplay for me to buy (if theres any for free then welcome too) edit: when i said it feels pretty complete i dont mean i have done all, i mean theres not lack of content (like you would notice in other games) |
