Skyrim: Dragonborn DLC trailer shows riding dragons
A naughty Dragonborn is on the loose in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, slaying dragons and sucking up their souls to amass power, and it's not you. Bethesda today released the first trailer for open-world RPG's 'Dragonborn' DLC, teasing new areas, enemies, and, yes, riding dragons.

It seems there will indeed be a bit of a jaunt to the island of Solstheim, introduced in The Elder Scrolls III: Bloodmoon, as had been uncovered by people rooting around in data files.
Dragon mounts is one of the ideas born of a big Skyrim game jam at Bethesda. Other ideas from the jam week have already snuck into Skyrim, such as the Lycanthropy skill tree and mounted combat in the Dawnguard DLC.
As is the way with Skyrim DLC, Dragonborn will hit Xbox 360 first, on December 4 for $20, or 1600 MS points. Bethesda's not saying anything about other platforms, but it'll doubtless hit PC later too. The PlayStation 3, however, has serious problems with Skyrim DLC, which Bethesda and Sony are still struggling to solve.

I hear the Fighter's Guild is recruiting.

UNF!

If they get the Z-axis working right with flying dragons they better damn well re-add all the cool ass alteration spells back in.

DLC exclusivity needs to die.

DLC that has an 'exclusive' launch-date and then a more broad launch date a couple of weeks later... that's really not so bad. The developer receives a nice chunk of change and within a few weeks, everyone else is satisfied. It's like Skyfall opening in Europe before America. Weird, but hey - it's tolerable and won't kill anyone.
What really sucks is DLC that is eternally locked to a specific platform. IE: the Joker bits for Batman: Arkham Asylum that were PS3-exclusive. C'mon!-
It drives me insane and actually drives me away from gaming. Games feel more like 'products' than ever before. They always were products but at least you just pay, got your game and got involved in a new rich and deep universe (I'm an SP gamer)
I detest the having to research your fucking games before you buy them model, detest it with all my being.-
I'm with you 100%. I don't mind DLC that is made available to everyone at some date. Like how the stupid pre-order offerings for Fallout: New Vegas are available as the Courier's Stash. That's auxiliary crap that you are at least able to gain access to via the DLC (which was later included in the Ultimate Edition).
But it's crap that is tied to pre-orders that is one-time-use that just drives me up a wall. Every publisher or developer that feels a flash-in-the-pan monetary gain offered up to them by Gamestop / Wal-Mart / Target / Best Buy / Amazon is worth more than offering up their customers at least access to the same materials at some point... well, fuck you.-
Yeah, well try living in Australia and you'll see just how evil DLC actually is when 'they' control the content 100%
You want Okami HD remake? Sure - that's 33% more (even though our AU$ is worth more) you want X? sorry not available to you, you want Y which is on a great sale today for 3$ US? Sorry it's still 20$ for you - no sales.
It's FUCKED.

Can't wait. Also sweet Morrowind buildings and shroom trees.

you should correct the article to say that the PS3 has serious issues with Skyrim in general. There are still plenty of people out there with games they can't play no DLC required. It's criminal how bad they have handled that platform.
It's maybe worse all the love they got at the end of last year with their broken toy. -
Oh shit yes. Revisiting Solstheim is all I needed to know. The rest is just awesome trimmings.
-
-
I'd hope so since it takes place on Solstheim.
-
There are a couple references in game to Solstheim taking in refugees from Morrowind.

Boots of blinding speed need to make a comeback.
-
Just use the console and pretend you found speed boots?
-
I'd rather have the boots.

Why the fuck is this game still $60 on Steam?
-
It's been on sale a lot, and will be again. Last time was October when the most recent DLC came out. It's one of their best selling games so expect them to keep the standard 60 price as long as they possibly can, but it will be cheap everywhere during the upcoming holiday sales.
Anyway, it's still more than worth $60 for all the content inside.
