what I thought about DLC

Well whats the difference of doing a few DLC's, or 1 giant expansion that offers just as much content?


They can be made in a shorter period of time using a smaller team.

I wouldn't mind the idea as long as the provenience's are contained in a small part of the continent. And only if the dlc take place in past games I.E Morrowind or Cyrodil, etc. But NOT an expansion pack. That's just too much. Id rather a full expansion to be someplace I've never been to in any games. Something with history and lore. And new types of dragons. :D

EDIT: Now that I think about it, the game IS set 200 years later, so the landscape could have changed immensely. Maybe have a DLC were a rare powerful dragon is terrorizing a city in Morrowind. Seyda Neen has expanded into a bustling city and needs help from the last known dragonborn.

Yeah I guess it would be kind of alot to put in one DLC but I just thought it would be wicked cool. I still think it would be great but I see why they wouldn't do it to. but what was wrong with Horse Armor it was only like 200 points and I thought it was cool looking? I'll probly buy what ever they make for DLC though lol I just had the idea and wanted to know what you guys thought.

We need to scream at Onra for a Skyrim version of his height maps, if Skyrim is the size of Oblivion now, I choke at the size Cyrodiil would be in Skyrim

It would be pretty big wouldn't, maybe just big enough for a jungle.

No, Reserve the other provinces for future games. A DLC is not enough to get the full experience of a province.

I want to see shivering isles quality dlc. No horse armor, no quests to visit once areas and never-see-again. No mass effect 2 dlc (referring to appearance packs,weapon packs and other nickel and dime items)

I'd love to see special faction dlcs (Werewolf,vampire factions introduced).

IT was overpriced and added almost nothing, it should of been either part of the DLC or a gift for buying all of the DLC.Which if I remember correctly Bethesda gave 360 owners a free FO3 them if they bought all the DLC.

What you're suggesting is essentially an expansion, though I'd say a whole province is too much even for that, unless the province in question were considerably smaller than Skyrim in lore and the map used the same scale as Skyrim's, I mean, Tribunal, Morrowind's first expansion, only added one city and the dungeons beneath it, and I don't recall hearing anyone saying it was too small, maybe an expansion could add part of another province, like say, an expansion could open up a region of one of the neighboring provinces to explore, but of course, that's not going to happen, because Bethesda isn't going to do expansions, only DLC.
