i am willing to my xbox that there will never been an expansion about the dwemer returning and there is nothing hinting about their return, and there is everything saying they are dead and gone for ever (well maybe not "dead" but they are gone forever)

Or maybe instead of being about the Dwemer, it's about revealing the horrifying secret behind them.

Hey, there's a decent chance that Yagrum Bagarn is still alive...

i hope not.... they brought back dragons awesome. they brought back the falmer cool. honestly in my opinion the dwemer are far more appealing gone. although a return of yargum bargon would be very welcome. i really hope he and divynath fyr outlived red mountain.

i just dont want skyrim to be the one remembered as the one that revived everything that was ever killed off. seems extremely one note.

also i dont see them hinting to it at all in the game....

Squeezing money? No one's forcing anyone to purchase a DLC/expansion, and you get a full game, with 100's of hours of play (if you want to find/do everything) for $60. A 20-30 hour (minimum) expansion for $20-30? Squeezing money? Hardly. Of course, you can just WAIT a year or so and purchase the full game with all expansions for the same $60. You're need for immediate gratification and your inability to delay that gratification is not Bethesda's problem.

On "the lore"... Please. Any "lore" that exists is PAST. Don't be a dweeb who argues that the Enterprise can't possibly survive this or that attack because of some schematic in subsection A of deck 9. You ain't Scotty. Plausible explanations can create any number of possibilities. For instance... a pocket of dwemer located in a deep recess, shielded by powerful magic remained untouched. Unfortunately, they also lost the ability to break down the shield and return. This opens WORLDS of possibilities, including, but not limited to, falmer slaves and the possibility of their uprising. My personal preference would lead to this as an expansion... a throwback falmer, born as the snow elves of old, becomes something of a falmer "moses". He leads "his people" out of the last (known) dwemer city. The player discovers this through the falmer (indirectly, through Calcelmo). The player can side with either the falmer or the dwemer (or neither) as one main quest. Although the falmer escaped, how they did so remains unclear, and the dwemer are still but a rumor initially. The MAIN main quest lies in breaking down the barrier that keeps them sequestered (Eye Of Magnus/Psyjics). I agree, there's some heavy hinting at this being a distinct possibility, including the world "not being ready" for the Eye. I know a lot of people enjoyed Shivering Isles. For me, it was meh. I'd prefer a non-daedric expansion. Anyway... beat the Eye main quest and you unlock Dwemer as playables... 'twould be an EXCELLENT expansion, IMO.

Nope - even Beth admit how stupid the horse armour was! But the people complaining that DLC costs too much: really? Compared to what? Suppose that a US$5 DLC gives you two hours extra play, and you don't want to repeat it. That's about the worst scenario, with all the F3 stuff lasting a lot longer (Beth did learn from the Ob DLC). What else can you buy for $5 that last two hours? Not alcohol. Not books I would think. Not even drugs.

But no, it won't be the return of the Dwemer: that was done to death in MW. Expanding on the Bards would be one obvious area. And there's at least one gate out of Skyrim...

I'm still hoping for more on the psijic order, given how abruptly the CoW questline was cut off. Maybe KDodds has it right. The eye is involved with the return of the Dwemer... it's a possibility. The eye reaches back and ganks a few Dwemer forward in time to... now! Still, I think I'd have to exterminate them. They were massive pricks.


There's usually 10-20 hours of gameplay for less than the price of going to the movies. Most Beth DLCs contain more than other entire games. Hard to fault value in that.

Maybe the next DLC will provide M'aiq the liar with his own storyline ;D
