Wait....
This is legit?

FUfudsfhdf

Okay okay. I'm usually pretty level headed, but damn this is exciting stuff!

Lesse'...
-------------------------------------
There will be new dragons to fight that will be tougher for the player.
More challenge. Awesome!

-There will be a Lycanthropy tree with new powers, including the "Totem of the Moon" which shall allow werewolves to summon up other fellow werewolves. There is one called "Savage feeding" and "Animal vigor".
WOW. I really didnt think Beth was going to do it. Color me surprised and thankful.

-Harkon's castle is named Castle Volkihar, which also can serve as a home for the player. As well as Castle Dawnguard. Players will be given a safe haven in either one of these castles. Vampiric players will be given bottles of blood that will give health and also count as "feedings."
Cool stuff!


-There will be a new vampiric power where you suspend a foe in the air and drain them(seen in the trailer). The player can transform at will into the vampire lord and transform back into the regular form. Players can also turn into a swarm of bats(seen in the previews).
Well there we go, finally confirmed that it wont just be a sequential thing. Good job Bethesda.

-There will be a new facial transformation feature to modify your face. Race change is not in the game, but players shall now be able to change their appearance.
Oh............YEEEES. Once again, didn't think Beth was going to add this. Hey Gstaff, THANK YOU! Pass it on!

-Dawnguard is NOT meant for low-level players.
Great, great stonking news guys. It's Mournhold all over again!

-New enemies such as Armored trolls, death hounds and legendary dragons.
More variety = never a bad thing.

-Dragonborn weapons.
Wonderful! Sort of felt they should have been in there to start so glad they are getting the inclusion.
------------------------------------

So yeah, I just went from pretty excited to how I was when Skyrim was first announced.
Gotta try and keep it cool though, I don;t want to over hype myself and blow this to a proportion that can never realistically satisfy me.
But really though....

I'm glad there's still questions unanswered. It means maybe the Add-On has more than just Vampire/monster stuff.

Of course, maybe the Snow Elf Prince is in the Soul Cairn?

The question is do we have a "Vampire" Perk tree or "Vampire Lord" Perk Tree or maybe both? I'm hoping both.

I hope that fiery horse is restricted to the plane of Oblivion.

I think you may be onto something

I believe what I bet was that they were gonna take the existing Volkihar concept and sell it out for a more mainstream one.

From the looks of things (seems like these ARE the Volkihar) I was right, ijs.

Gameplay And well..Being able to see these new features.And i dont know,release date maybe? Who knows what todd will tell us. i havent read the whole article so i am really excited.I love the info we have got so far!

1. we couldn't show them even if we did
2. the article only shows one vampire perk, and the letters are too small to read what it is.

I guess then they shouldn't make the dragonbone sword, if they have one, craftable.

Vampire Lord.

We'll get to see some gameplay which will probably reveal more story and wepons etc.

I am guessing werebear will likely be a perk on the lycanthropy skill tree.

I wonder where they got inspiration for that horse. *cough* Undead Nightmare *cough*

I hope there's going to be more spells. We have all these new additions yet they didn't mention more spells? Guess they're saving some stuff for E3.

haha i thought the same thing when i saw it.

Why?

Feew i was about to cure my Lycanthropy but now seeing this info i can forget about doing that

The one in the game jam looked extremely similar to the horse of the apocalypse war.

Maybe the snow prince has something to do with the "the souls of the living AND THE DEAD" mentioned in the dawnguard trailer. Maybe vampires wanna absorb the power of his soul.

Is that you War? Death maybe...

vsions again. I swear you're following me into every thread.

The gamejam one looked exactly like war. Maybe that's why they turned it blue.

I just feel it fits Oblivion much better than Nirn.

Not that it really matters to me one way or the other. I'm unlikely to use horses anyway.

Ah I see what you mean, I do agree, but I also think if you want to roleplay as some sort of Daedric entity, the horse could be quite fitting. Perhaps they could even add some sort of effect that scares people who are close to you.

From what we've seen but there is a possibility for both until its clarified.
