Hello there Cold Steel. Jolly nice to see you.
I just saw the e3 footage again at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ux76mg7V4_o and I spotted something nice at 3:35
Crossbows are not tied to joining the dawnguard faction it seems?
Your thoughts,
My thoughts? There appears to be this strange asymmetry between the two opposing factions: The EMO people get new powers, perks and an island? The Dawnguard get a nifty Castle. But perhaps they have not disclosed everything, or so I would guess.
