Everyone wants a DLC of another province

Post » Mon Sep 10, 2012 6:03 am

And I think you guys should stop hoping for that. I just read a topic about a Valenwood DLC. And I laughed.
This game is called Skyrim, because you play in the province called Skyrim. I think it is crazy if Bethesda would make a DLC of another province for Skyrim.
I think that each province deserves it's own game. What is your oppinion?

First, all of the groundwork is laid out for all of Tamriel and included with Skyrim(and blocked off by the invisible forcefield). Secondly, a relevant DLC with a landmass that was part of a war with the Thalmor would work best taking place in the same game and be more immersive because it could run off of previous choices and accomplishments you've made with your character(the different outcomes would be limited and not too hard to implement).

If it was made into a new game you would be stuck with a generic representation of what the Dragonborn has accomplished which would be a little odd since the game would likely take place in 50 years or less in the future.

A DLC based upon a Daedric Realm? Like Shivering Isles?
Maybe Moonshadow.

No, it's not.

What's there outside of Skyrim is a basic landmass with basic heightmaps and even more basic distant land textures and detail. Most of it is incomplete (ie: Only one side of Red Mountain is presnet with a void the other) or -with the exception of a super low detail white gold tower- completely devoid of detail. There's no smooth, high detail ground meshes, no near distance textures and in a lot of places it's not even solid.

And only portions of the surrounding provinces are present, not all of Tamriel. It's basically there so you don't see a void or a featureless landscape beyond the borders should you get high enough, from say the throat of the world or during a particular Daedric quest.

In Oblivion, we had the same thing with surrounding provinces being present and we didn't have DLC that went to any of those.

I don't. I would prefer another realm of Oblivion. If they do another province it's not going to live up to peoples ridiculously high expectations. If they do a DLC that goes to another province it would only be a small area.

as i've stated many times here, a big dlc or an expansion involving the great collapse and the concomitant morrowind volcano eruption,psjiic order etc. would be welcomed

but of course not an entire province is needed,only a part of it - and seeing winterhold and helgen in their former glory would be great too

^ This also people are asking for a DLC for the second great war aganist the Thalmor to do that northern and the middle of Cyrodiil has to be opened because the fighting will likely take place in Cyrodill than in Skyrim.

i have feeling they will do something with Winterhold, since its only hold were you cant live in and quite empty its seems little strange to me. Maybe you will be able to rebuild it and become a jarl eventually
