Dawnguard Info and Discussion - Thread #37

Post » Fri Jun 15, 2012 4:02 pm

I remember hearing in an interview that there are side quests and that one of them in particular has nothing to do with the dawnguard/vampire quests and involves an 'epic' dungeon :smile:

No vampire lord for me then, wouldn't want to upset Hircine :smile:
Yeah, I wonder what would happen if one would go from being a werewolf to a vampire lord, then return to being a werewolf? Not sure if Hircine would like that very much, and you definitely don't want to be on Hircine's bad side.
Spoiler
Remember what happened when Sheogorath annoyed him by killing his weredaedroth with a tiny bird. :swear: :evil:

I am sorry... but after seeing your avatar several time today I have to say this:

Every time I see it all I can think is "Me Gusta" it looks just like it to me. :smile:


I wonder what the new landmass could be.... My bets are on something still not shown in any trailer. I recognize the general areas of the two castles... so there must be something none of us have seen yet.



Serena: story spoilers from an article click at own risk.

Spoiler
One of the articles during E3 explained that she is to be sacrificed as part of the ritual to gain control over the sun, something she understandably does not want to do. I would assume she ends up helping the dawnguard in some way if you side with them.

The most important thing in this video for me? That freaking awesome T-shirt the Dev is wearing of a Dragon high fiving a werewolf.

"for the most part, they're anscillary things, miscellaneous quests that fill out what's going on in either faction. Kind of like the way the factions worked [in the main game.]" Bah.. radiant story...

sorry if this is old info, I haven't been on this thread much today, but Kotaku is saying that dawnguard will have 2 new large landmasses: Soul cairn we knew about... but what would the other be?

More now than ever I'm hoping that the vamps castle is situated on Roscrea. I would much rather have this option as opposed to some random vampire castle coming out of the Sea of Ghosts. Plus I have always wanted to see this island ever since I first read about it. Doubtless though, I'm pretty pumped for this expansion. Going to be epic

Why the hell would she help them? Sure, she must be sacrificed. But not joining with Harkon does not mean she is going to join the Dawnguard. It wouldn't make sense, and it would be ridiculous. Dawnguard are a bunch of fanatics that want to kill off vampires. Harkon wants to blot out the sun because of the prophecy that says ALL vampires will be eradicated by the incoming doom of sorts. You think he came out of nowhere and said "Let us block the sun because we want to feed on people for the hell of it in a darkened world?"

No. Vampires want to survive and they sure as hell are going to try to. And the Dawnguard will try to stop them. I believe she is a good person even if she doesn't try to help out the tyrannical enemy that is the Dawnguard. If your doom was coming, wouldn't you try to find a way to survive and stop it?

Its like saying cows are going to try to stop humans from devouring them by accelerating the rate of our apocalypse. Would you join the cows and shake hands? "Come, cattle, let us be friends and live together peacefully."

Soul Cairn is but one of at least two large new landmasses in the game. However, the story will also play out across the Skyrim we all know and love, which is really cool. Said Howard, "You're still going to be exploring the landmass that came with the main game, and then, I want to avoid quantifying, but there are at least two very large new areas. The Soul Cairn is one of them."

Oh my god,That was a suprise! Also this

"Serana lives in a castle called Castle Volkhar, which is located in a previously inaccessable region of the far northwest corner of the map, near Icewater Jetty."

This is great news! How cool would it be for some parts of high rock to be unlocked? But i dont think it will be something really big but a part of it would really be amazing.But Todd said "very large" areas.I dont want to get my hopes up but,OMGOMG.
Or maybe he is trolling us.
Todd the liar. Troll Howard :)

Hircine and Sheogorath are two of my favorite daedric lords as well. If you want to know where the story that I referenced is from, it is from "16 Accords of Madness, v. VI." http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:16_Accords_of_Madness,_v._VI

I wonder how the new perk trees will be accessible, and how they will be handling all the new abilities for vampire lords and werewolves?

Also, I just saw vsions was reading things in the Skyrim General Discussion Forum a little while ago. Not sure what he was looking at, though.
