So since a moderator closed my question thread about heatthnfire ... Should I really read throughtn 33 threads to get to know what is that or someone is kind enough to explain?

It was only known as far as I know for two days, easy enough to go back and read about it.

Someone said that we could be going to Hammerfell in Dawnguard so I started reading up on Hammerfell at the Library and discovered something interesting that probably has been discussed before so don't harp on me if it has, but in Hammerfell (the rumored province of the expansion) lies the Direnni Tower or as more commonly known as the Adamantine Tower which was built in the "Dawn Age" and it is rumored that the tower goes as deep into the ground as it does above so Falmer or Dwemer structures could be involved.

Anyway what do you all think?

I thought the Adamantine Tower was in High Rock?

It is in High Rock. Also, the I still think Dawnguard is in Solstheim. Solstheim is also to the east.

Sorry I meant only to say High Rock.

I also agree. It was just a thought though.

Hey I heard that Patch 1.6 was also datamined and revealed some coffin puzzle and other stuff. Anyone know where I can find a list of all the interesting stuff found in the datamine?

That's not going to happen. Before Skyrim was released Todd Howard explained everything that was wrong with medium armor. He wanted the player to have to make a choice. Mobility or Protection. Medium armor destroys that choice.
having another option only adds to the choices you can make

Good. To. Know.

But it makes this particular choice less meaningful.

Not to mention the whole "Mobility vs Protection" thing is meaningless anyway given that there are perks which make heavy armor weightless and the Steed Stone makes you suffer no movement penalties from heavy armor.
Medium Armor please!

If they do happen to show a demo or something @ E3, what media outlet would carry it? For example, GameTrailers had the honor to be the first to carry out the first world premier exclusive footage of Skyrim gameplay then others followed.

And any armor in the game can hit the cap with smithing. But that's only in the endgame. Medium armor is something that just doesnt need to happen. One of the reasons being that in the endgame, armor choice is based purely on aesthetics. Why would you want them to spend the time making medium armor when they could be adding other stuff that's actually cool and useful? But this is all invalid as I know they aren't going to make medium armor. Your wish is meaningless.

There are other skills that I would consider more important to bring back - Unarmed, Athletics, Acrobatics, but I still think Medium Armor would be cool. Bonemould was one of my favorite armor types in Morrowind.

Aren't the high end light armors the equivalent of a 'medium' armor?

I would have liked it to be about the Thalmor, though this seems unlikely. The only relation I can see is that the Thalmor are from Summerset isle and perhaps "Dawnguard" Is supposed to symbolize guarding the dawn from them.

Although it could also be about the falmer moving and trying to take over the surface.

Most likely it's about Vampires, which is okay. I like the darker themes of the Elder Scrolls, the rituals and dark caverns and such. Perhaps it's about a certain group of Vampires who have developed an immunity to sunlight? Sort of like Vampires rule the night and now they're trying to steal the dawn?

I want Bonemould too, but it would be reclassified as heavy armor. Just because you want the medium armor sets back doesnt mean you should want the skill back. The medium armors would just all be reclassified.

And why athletics? that was the dumbest skill in the previous games. You don't even do anything to level it up. DUMB.

Acrobatics isn't in anymore because they wanted a game with realistic physics. Good riddance.

I agree with h2h though. While to me it was a worthless skill, I know it adds to RP purposes and to the depth of the game.

Not a big fan of medium armor. Just try to count how many people actually used that in Morrowind. Heavy armor was good for Warriors, light armor was good for assassins, no armor was good for mages, but where's the room for medium armor? Don't understand why someone would use it.

I'm not sure, but for some reason the name "Dawnguard" reminds me of Atmora. Don't ask me why, It's just like that for me. I was always thinking that this DLC might have something to do with Atmora, and why/how the Nords moved to skyrim.

Chances are it would be GameTrailers again probably.

Dawnguard sounds like a specific place, not a title that means something. But where? Never heard of a Dawnguard town. Unless it's a Daedric realm or underground like Blackreach.
