[CSar L]

Vigilants of Stendarr somehow involved seeing as they don't want anyone to go to the "darkness"?

[Katie Louise Ingram]

Walk always in the light. Or we will drag you to it.

[Dorian Cozens]

We pray on many abominations : vampires, werewolfs but the deadra are the worse.
EDIT: Will I need to have finished MQ to do this?
Or we will have a quest to get an elder scroll.

[Carlitos Avila]

Nah, we don't need another unspecific 'evil' slaying cult to go together with the Dawnguard. One is more than enough.

[Becky Palmer]

Anyone recognize the voice actor?

[mishionary]

Might be. I didn't see any references to them though in the trailer.

[josh evans]

Is this Xbox exclusive? It doesn't say anything in the OP about other platforms.

[Star Dunkels Macmillan]

Looks like you can shout and use magic as well while in wampire form!

[Stacy Hope]

Okay. What did i say about 10 threads ago? The Vampires wanted to block out the sun. Exactly what's happening.

[[Bounty][Ben]]

Buffed up werewolf transformation, make it last a little longer or make it a toggle with hircine's ring on, to counter balance the cool factor boost vampires are getting, nothing svcks more then being transformed back in the middle of a fight because you can't feed without taking a few arrows to the face and yet you transform back into a naked dovakhin just to take a few arrows to the face.

I hope they don't do the same stupidity with vampires, so you only transform for like 30 seconds at a time and revert.... It is really rather stupid gameplay wise, and Lore wise.

[Tamika Jett]

And will these vampires use magic or their beast form?

[Tinkerbells]

Is this Xbox exclusive? It doesn't say anything in the OP about other platforms.

No its just a timed exclusive. Meaning it will come out on xbox first then it will go to other platforms.

[Jenna Fields]

Anyone recognize the voice actor?

Bill Nighy from Underworld and Pirates from the Caribbean

Sounds a bit like him.

[Monika]

http://i.imgur.com/uL6ymh.jpg shot in particular looks amazing. Great job on the screencaps.

[Aman Bhattal]

Meh. I'll just have to hope one of the many good vampire mods out there will provide an option to remove that silly transformation. More than a bit over the top for my tastes.

[Flesh Tunnel]

I hope when you are not in vampire lord form as a human you will be able to walk along in that sinister looking hunched over gait you see the Dova using at the end of the video. It makes you look sinister and wicked, like people better not mess with you or they will get a nasty surprise.

I also hope you get to burst into a cloud of bats like you see in the video, it would be an awesome way to travel around the countryside.

I do not think vampire lord form will be able to fly, but instead it will just enable you to hover at a finite height, not soaring through the air. But turning into a cloud of bats would be a great way to let you fly high in the air to travel without being able to attack at the same time.

The dragon bursting through the ice has me intrigued. What does it mean?
Are dragons getting a major buff to their intelligence and are they going to be more dangerous? Is it a vampire dragon? Hmmmmm.

[Motionsharp]

Oops,sorry for posting the links,I didnt know that someone else posted it,When i started to write that nobody had posted on this thread

[ILy- Forver]

Dawnguard armor... heavy or light?

also I wonder if there's more than two kinds of crossbows.

[Benjamin Holz]

Dawnguard armor... heavy or light?

very likely that there's 2 versions.

[benjamin corsini]

That was a dragon boos battle. See the ice? When do you ever fight dragons on completely frozan lakes. I hope it's Ahbiiok, the one in Morrowind.

[SexyPimpAss]

very likely that there's 2 versions.

I like the way you think!

[Eileen Müller]

edit: sorry, messed up the thread during a merge. New one is up.

I was wondering what happened No biggie of course, thanks for making the new one

Anyway, does anyone else wanna see other beast forms pretty soon? Werebears is something I would like to see.
