Obsidian should make the Skyrim DLC.

No, no no, a thousand times no. While I love Obsidian's work on FNV, I love Bethesda's work with Oblivion more. So... again... No.

You are saying that Dead Money and Old World Blues were better than Knights of the Nine and Shivering Isles?

^ This. The OP joins TODAY and acts like Oblivions DLC was trash. Shivering Isles IMO was better than ALL of F: NV and its DLC.

NV DLC was great, but ES is Beth's thing, I don't think Obsidain should work on it, no matter how good they are.

And you joined the 2nd of May 2011 and you act like FNV's DLC were trash. Dead Money IMO was better than all of Oblivion's DLC's and tiny expansion packs.

Just because he joined today, doesn't make his opinion less valid, and just because you joined before him doesn't make your opinion moer important.

Your asking a company to work out a DLC/x-pack who has little (if any) understanding about Skyrim. They would be starting midproject and would have to take a crash course in understanding how the game is coded and such. That would take time and money, taking away fron the quality of the release.

Obsidian should make... The Elderscrolls 6 to be released June 2015.

They are certainly lacking in, certain areas, though. I'd love to see Bethesda and Obsidian team up, ala what Valve/Rockstar/Other studios do for the next Elderscrolls. Obsidian has the writing talent and ambitious gameplay ideas, while Bethesda can produce solid art and programming that's not so broken and evil Hitler would cringe at it.

Don't care who makes it. At this point, I don't really care about DLC period. The freaking game's not even out yet.

But frankly, I much preferred all of Obsidian's.

You are saying that Dead Money and Old World Blues were better than Knights of the Nine and Shivering Isles?

I personally consider those two to be better than Operation Anchorage, The Pitt, Broken Steel, Point Lookout, and Mothership Zeta. And I guess while we're at it, yes, better than Knight of the Nine. And I think it's safe to say that, dollar for dollar and hour for hour, most of the NV DLCs are certainly better than Shivering Isles. :shrug:

Honestly I think FO3 had the best DLC system, and that was Bethesda, NV's DLC were mediocre and while Shivering Isles and Knights of the Nine were well-made and a lot of fun, they weren't very well balanced. I like the 5 similarly large expansions that weren't too huge but added a bit of everything to the game, from new areas to new enemies and items. That was a pretty perfect system and I hope we see more of that for Skyrim.

SI and KotN weren't very well balanced, but FO3's DLC was the best? You mean that stuff that just gave you a suit with an unlimited Stealth Boy effect, a combination of an assault rifle and sniper rifle that was completely silenced, a bunch of ancient lever action rifles that were incredibly powerful and used the most common bullet in the game, a [censored]-ton of energy weapons that are given to you, ample levels and experience to max out all of your skills and attributes, and companions that were pretty much made invincible?

Oblivion's DLC content had nothing on FO3's imbalance.

Think about Tribunal and Bloodmoon.

Granted they were expansions not DLC, but Beth defiantly has the potential to make great DLC if they put the effort into it; wich they proved with Shivering Isles and KOTN.

The New Vegas DLC is pretty boring on rails stuff to in my opinion. Starts out interesting but about quarter of the way through I just wanted them to finish and let me back to the main game.

:EDIT:
as a side note, I realy liked Mothership Zeta in FO3, mostly because I had 'The Ecstasy of Gold' by Ennio Morricone playing during the spaceship battle. It was awesome. (I always go with a western theme for my fallout characters)

I loved what Obsidian did in New Vegas but The Elder Scrolls are Bethesda's home turf, this is their baby and they should be the ones to help it grow.

That was morrowind FREE DLC. Like the adamantium armor, Le Femm armor ect. it was stuff Beth gave out for free.

:EDIT: sorry, I forgot to say that the island was 'seige at fort firemoth' or something like that.

Obsidian needs to work on Publisher Relations so they can get projects with the time needed to make a good and proper RPG so their Talent can be put to use and not have to Half Ass things. They can worry about Making DLC once that happens.

I'd rather have Bethesda do it.

Obsidians work was sketchy at best. Way to many bugs and glitches, like they didn't even try to test it.

I second this. And who could forget the Shivering Isles? That was one of the better expansions well, ever. As far as originality goes at least.

Obsidian might make a better Fallout game, but that TES should be left to Beth to work with.

Bethesda has proven themselves with Point Lookout.
In my humble opinion, Point Lookout was one of the most enjoyable gaming experiences of all time.

Well, if their DLC is like SI or KotN, which I was pretty sure was the kinda things they were going to try to do, then I'll be a happy camper.

Besides, what's being proposed here would never even happen, so in this case it's really wishful thinking if this is something you'd take issue with.
