Actually, no, I had an account, forgot it after Oblivion, used Facebook to login when Skyrim came, and then suddenly couldn't anymore. I am not sure why.
I am rather anxious about what the DLC will be, and keep my fingers crossed that it will be good...

Off of twitter, the image is named Tyxcur. Tyx, according to http://www.kunstsprachen.de/s2/node19.html#lextyx, means foot in Iclandic, and of course Cur is something we've heard in Morrowind, and means mutt, or mixed-breed, but used to refer to an outcast or outsider. I suppose foot could mean wandering on ones feet, so a "wandering outcast" or "Trespassing Outsider" perhaps.

Interesting name in any case.

What? Serious ?

No need for an explanation;that was a simply joke about your first post after months and a suggestion in good-faith to post in another similar "active" thread :smile:

Return to Morrowind maybe? Or at least parts of it

» Tue Jun 12, 2012 9:00 pm

Hammerfell or Morrowind i hope. But not the whole lands i presume.

Not sure if herp, or derp.

The first link is considered fake by many

I do think it's very strange that they rendered the entire Isle of Vvardenfell in striking detail, if it only exists for "Out of range LOD" purposes. You can even see Lake Amaya and Lake Nabia.

I wouldn't go as far as to say 'striking detail', I don't think it'll be the focus of any sort of DLC feature.

EDIT: Just looked at the LOD pictures again, yeah. They're way off in terms of scale.

I am guessing it will be a Hammerfell expansion and Dawnguard has to do with Redguards and not anything to do with Dawnstar or Mythic Dawn.

I am really hopping for DLC about Akaviri warriors so I thought of making a character mainly for Blades armor and stuff.
Do I have time for new character - well to finish MQ, Civil war, companions, before DLC oh and I am on PS3.

You know, the pic Bethblog twitted really resembles Ulfric being interrogated by the Thalmor...

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 9:01 am

Well 360 is going to have the DLCs for 30 days before the PS3 and PC can get them so yes.

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 12:38 am

Considering we don't have a release date yet, it's difficult to say. However, the nearest it can become available to you is 30 days from tomorrow, and that's only if Bethesda announces the DLC is available starting tomorrow rather than making some other announcement or advertising it at all. After that the Xbox 360 has it for 30 days exclusive before it comes to the other systems.

So does everything you mentioned sound like something you can finish in at least a month?

That's what I thought too, tomorrow we'll know I suppose.

Of course, thank you sir. I will play a real Dragonborn because I don't feel like playing with Khajiit thief

I dont want a DLC that takes us back in time D:
But still that would be cool, but we dont know what it is

It could be skyrim related,and it could be other stuff.

I'm with the group that says "That picture doesn't scream 'Skyrim' to me."

Because, well... that picture doesn't scream "Skyrim" to me. And I'm certainly not getting my hope up about any new lands in a DLC. When's the last time Bethesda did that? They've only ever done it in expansion packs. Not only that, but I can't think of one that took you outside your province. Solstheim and the Mainland in Morrowind, and even then it was just one city, or a relatively small island. And of course there's Shivering, but that's a new matter entirely. It was a Daedric Realm, which was something Oblivion was already all about.

So I'm not thinking we will visit any other province. There's just no evidence or precedent for it.
Why did they build in such huge chunks of Tamriel all around Skyrim? Because they knew people would look. None of it is very detailed, and the scale is way off. Most of it is only designed to be viewed from one direction (no texture on the far side). To me, it seems pretty clear that they just put all that terrain in so that people could look around and see that it was there.

Not planning to use it. It's all wrong for use.

Scale is kind of pointless either way. Vvardenfell actually makes up half of the actual province of Morrowind's landmass, but in relation to size in game terms from Morrowind Skyrim, it's around 1/3 as big. I think the whole of Vvardenfell's Mainland could fit in all of Whiterun Hold.
