A DLC thread? What are the odds the "it's content cut from the game!!!" argument will pop up?
*reads thread*
Like clockwork.
I'll take as many DLCs as they give me, but I hope for a bit more depth than what Fallout 3 had. Point Lookout was GREAT. A new area, locations to explore, more quests to do, more enemies to fight, etc. Broken Steel wasn't as good, but it gave you a few new things along with the main quest line, and let you continue. The others, though, were just fairly linear crawls. Anchorage was worth it for about one go, and after that was only really useful for the PA Training perk (still a stupid mechanic, when everybody in the entire world but the player can use it). The Pitt and Mothership Zeta were just..okay.
DLC is a great way to extend the life of a game while you're covering that year it usually takes to push out an expansion pack. Bethesda has learned, and I don't know why people keep thinking they'll repeat the same mistakes Oblivion had.
I'd almost like to see an expansion that continues the game story (like Tribunal sort of did) instead of another side area like SI or Blodmoon, but I'll take whatever expansions they release.
