Do you work for Bethesda? Because there's no way you'd know that werebears would be rehashed werewolves, they could be completley different for all we know. "If it IS added its not going to be because of lore, its going to be because people are complaining about it." People are complaining because they should've been in the game because of the lore written before it. Some people actually give a [censored] about lore. "And I wont buy that DLC. even if it has other stuff in it. I have to voice my opinion somehow" Seriously?? Let's say they're in an expansion the size of Shivering Isles and you wouldn't buy it because there's a small quest with werebears in it?

I just http://fallout.neoseeker.com/w/i/fallout/thumb/f/f3/Yao_Guai_2.png/240px-Yao_Guai_2.png a http://images.wikia.com/fallout/images/2/2e/Yao_guai.png in Fallout 3 today and I was thinking maybe bethesda could use them as a template for werebears.

Edit: The reason I posted that is because I've heard that werewolves share some animations with deathclaws.

I think Beth has the tools to make a GREAT Werebear. Thats why I can't understand why there not in Skyrim yet.

There not in skyrim yet because its not a priority. And I base my deductions; off their past decisions. just look at the pattern already with the vampires '. They were added because people were complaing about how bad vampires were. Then they just decided to make it a DLC instead. Now we have flying demons with no real weaknesses at all.Now im not saying they wont add them. Im actually saying at some point they will. BUT, it will be just a rehashed werewolf with slightly different stats. you dont have to be physic to see the obvious. Lycanthropy is Lycanthropy, no matter what you turn into.
My point is that people shouldn't be all hyped up about this. Its going to be a huge disappointment

They'd be faster then the PC. Fallout had ways to avoid them too. They were still fun to fight.

Oh there you go looking into your crystal ball again...how do you know it will be a "disappointment"?

I think what he's saying is that a werebear wouldn't be a high priority for Bethesda to focus on. They already gave us an improved form of Lycanthropy as well as a VL to transform into. What I hope is that they are focusing on more content like quests or improved AI interaction than giving us another beast to transform into. Basically, it comes down to how many people Beth has working on DLC, and what those devs want to spend their time on. My vote is bag another lycanthrope and focus on something different.

To be honest I could say the same thing to you ' but i go by what they've done in the past.

Last time I checked Beth has never made a werebear so how could you go by what they've done in the past and what I'm taliking about is pure speculation you're acting like you know exactly how werebears are going to be like. I'm not stating that people will be disappointed because I don't know how they would be done because they haven't been made before. By saying "Its going to be a huge disappointment" you act like you know everything about how Beth will do Werebears but how can you know you have no idea because I don't think you work for them.

I'm pretty sure the dev working on creature models isn't the same dev working on the quests. As far as I understand, each person in Bethesda game studios has a specific job. If Bethesda decides to include werebears in a DLC, I imagine that they won't be the main focus.

Idk why people think that if they add Werebears that that is all the DLC is going to be about.

That would be unwise of Bethesda, but a DLC based around Hircine's Hunting Grounds could do werebears some justice, in my opinion.

I agree Hircine's Hunting Grounds could maybe do Werewolfs a favor too.

Possibly, but I don't think so. Some people are just very blunt and stubborn on their opinions on how things should be done, and will not have it any other way. Not that I have a problem with it, but it's not always the best attitude in my opinion, especially in areas that would need improvement. It's not always a bad attitude either. It depends on the circumstances.

I think it would be a good idea to add in the ability for werewolves to sneak.

That or too much like Underworld, and they'll be acting as if Underworld invented everything from the idea of vampire werewolves (Hybrids as they're called in Underworld) to the idea of vampires versus werewolves. Vampires and werewolves receive so much hate these days it's absolutely ridiculous. What next, everyone's going to start hating war movies because somebody might end up doing an awful love movie set during wartime? Though the hate on them is slowly subsiding from what I can tell, but still, haters will be haters, and Hollywood isn't helping (talking to you, Tim Burton's Dark Shadows and Twilight).

I pretty much agree with all of that. It is entirely possible to add in Sanies Lupinus as a disease that is contracted by being attacked by a werewolf through DLC or something. If you don't believe me, look up the mod "Tales of Lycanthropy" for Skyrim. The "Core" module does just that, and then some.

Considering the stuff we've been getting so far, Bethesda's more likely to focus on the stuff that fans want, and since I haven't seen much demand for more dragon priest stuff, they aren't likely to focus much on that area. As a matter of fact, a lot of people are actually getting sick of all the Draugr stuff. I also agree with the Thalmor gaining attention in a sequel rather than in Skyrim DLC, since I think a full game would do them justice better than in Skyrim DLC. As a matter of fact, I don't see how they can even do any more Thalmor-related stuff in Skyrim, and I personally think that Skyrim DLC should be exactly that anyway. DLC that focuses on lore and features related to the region of Skyrim for the most part, at least until they run out of Skyrim-specific stuff to do. Things like werebears would be focusing on Skyrim-specific content, as this is the last game for a long time that they will have the opportunity to do werebears without revisions to the lore, as werebears exist in Cyrodiil and Skyrim, and are not mentioned to exist in any other part of Tamriel as far as I know.

I agree, Bethesda should finish adding content that's in the lore before starting on other stuff. And like you stated, this is our only chance to get werebears soon, it's going to be awhile before we get another game placed in Skyrim.

I think it'd be the best opportunity for Werebears, seeing as how they are native to Skyrim.

Not to say it'd be impossible or lore-breaking to put them in other games, but when would you have a more appropriate chance to put in Werebears other than a game set in Skyrim?

I agree I think if Beth is going to add Werebears in an Elder Scrolls game it should be now.

It would be very easy for Beth to add in a sneak toggle I think. Just have the werewolf slightly crouch like the normal sneak or ( what I would love to see) maybe make the sneak on all 4's like your really hunting down prey

Yeah, like I said before bethesda could easily add it in a patch like how they did mounted combat.

I agree I think it would be very easy for them to do.

i'm not sure on werebears they would have to have a noticeable difference than werewolves but spears i could get behind now all i need is an female argonian follower to polish it all day.... what i meant actually polish it i want my enemies to see their cowardly faces before they die apparantly argonians are good at polishing things..........

I'm Sure they will be a whole lot different then Werewolves.

Spears are (aside from more DGesque armor and vampire hoods) my only real desire for this game. Then I can have an Argonian warrior type character and not feel like a derp.

I agree, playing as an argonian without spears is like playing as a nord without axes.

I'm probably almost certain that this has been thought of (and that I'll get flamed for my heresy), but what if the werebears and werewolves are vying for their master's praise in the Hunting Grounds, assuming that's the DLC location? It could make for some interesting conflicts IMO.

Also, werewolves should get to stalk their prey. And make the NPC werewolves (add more of them!!) abuse it if you haven't seen them yet.

As for spears, my vote is hell yes. I want me spears back!
