Glad to hear that Bethesda is really pushing for lots of content in Skyrim DLC. I definitely can't wait to get back into Skyrim.
On a little bit of a tangent, even though it was over 5 years ago, Shivering Isles still ranks as one of the best bangs for your buck any DLC has produced. Nowadays you can beat an entire retail game quicker than you could Shivering Isles. Shows you how greedy some in the industry have become in regards to DLC - profit over quality. |

| I can't wait for Dawnguard. I really hope one of the other Skyrim DLC sees the return of the Daedre or explains the mystery of the Dwemer. I also had a strong feeling that Dawngaurd would not be as large in size compared to Shivering Isles but I'm sure one of the later DlC will be. |

| bigger than any of Fallout 3's dlc? That'll do nicely. Hopefully you'll be able to roam back and forth to the main game mid dlc. It was really useful to be able to do that with the shivering isles. Especially with the Ring of destruction & the Soul Tomato. Not to mention using Felldew poisoning to over level your stats. Good times. |

| @6 there's a few new areas. 1 is a realm of oblivion, which you will probably be able to enter and leave as you please. The other, I think, is expanding the current map with new places etc |

| @6 - I have a feeling that you will be able to flit back and forth between the expansion and the main game. I hope so, I have a little bit of cleaning up to do in the main game but I'm leaving it till I see what goodies I can bring back from Dawnguard. |

| As a rule of thumb I usually divide how long people say it takes to do something in a game by half. 5-10 hours seems more likely to me but I'll gladly be wrong. |

Longer, fewer, pricier DLC's will be much better than what they did for FO3. All of them were overpriced bar point lookout and only PL and the pitt were any good although the pitt was too short.
Still at least Skyrim didn't have an ending so we don't have to be subjected to a TES version of Broken (canon) Steel. |

| @33 Haha every now and then I gotta throw something out there. I'm still usually a personable fellow. I just thought it hilarious how many non-gamers I know were trying to talk to me about Skyrim back at the end of last year, trying to earn some sort of props that they were "gamers" now. It got really old. |

| DLC like this is one of the reasons that Bethesda is my favorite developer/publisher. Don't even care if this has achievements or not. Also disproves EA/Bioware trying to justify day one DLC by saying people will sell their games if DLC is released a few months after the game. Bethesda could have removed content for day one DLC too, but they obviously have more respect for their customers. |

| I'm a fan of skyrim, but I go through phases, were I think it's awesome and phases were I just can't be bothered with it. I have to say though, compared to some pieces of DLC were games are overpriced, e.g. EURO 2012 expansion for FIFA 12. Skyrim will be worth the price. |

@Anyone asking about achievements:
There are 10 new achievements added with the Dawnguard expansion.
But because I don't want to break the NDA, I can't tell you what they are... |
