No More DLC?

[Dohva.]

Nice take on it. I haven't played in almost a month and before then I had gotten new mods. There is plenty of life yet to Skyrim for me. If it means a new ES in the next few years then whatev.

[Abishpulu Shand]

Failing that, there are other game series!

I think you're a heretic...

Morrowind - a friend of mine just played that for the first time

He is a heretic, calling Morrowind "that" with arrogance. I say we burn him

On topic, I will not have major problems because the isn't anymore DLCs. I played Oblivion for so much time and it was so fun even knowing there was going to be nothing new.

[philfredobob]

well thats a disappointment. another disappointment in the series of disappointments that is Skyrim.


there were a few bright spots here and there, i loved Dawnguard, for example, it was great.

I assume the dev team behind skyrim are mostly on ESonline now.

They are not. Zenimax Online is a different team entirely from the team that made Skyrim. The latter is most likely moving on to Fallout 4.

There was this teaser from Bethesda https://vine.co/v/bFPjjheVnau But they said it ins't anything related to Fallout. I have no clue what this could be...

[swordsister]

the only stuff i read from the writings is bach's air on G string.

no seriously, i am [&@%!] beyond words right now, literally a faint expression of " i am soo [&@%!]" just doesn't do justice but anything beyond them would give moderators decent reason to kick my arse.

i want to kick some developer arse..don't forgive the expression. i don't care.

for YEARS i've been waiting for some different approach from these folks darnit, for YEARS. "not another daedric cr*p, no please, not another daedric cr*p."

every time man? every friggin time?

do you know what, they are SO favoring those dumbstick majority of the community out there who thinks being the evil b*stard is so KEWL. i hate it. I HATE IT!

my hads are shaking typing this.

here i am DESPERATELY trying to deal with all the scripted cr*p they've been pulling.you know what. Quests rubbed into my face and all. i didn't get the last dlc cause i thought maybe they'd add some way to weasel our way out of that daedric fact of theirs. Can anybody with some proficient English put my words together CAUSE i cannot. I don't know waht i'm typing.

f this.

Started a speculation thread on this HERE!

[soda popinski]

The thalmor isn't a problem only located in skyrim, and in fact compared to many other places they have a relatively limited influence there, so I don't understand why people would assume that they would be dealt with during this game.

With the end of the world prophesies done with for the time being, they had to leave something on the table to build around for the next game

[Avron the S'wit]

Judging the weight of the Thalmor, I think we'll be seeing them yet again. They are a force to be reckoned with and I'd honestly rather they got their own story instead of being supporting actors on stage. I really loved the lore behind them and would like to see the chaos they've created unfurled and shoved back at them.


And, actually, I was okay with "another Daedric prince" episode. I haven't played Dragonborn yet, but it'd be weird to think that the Daedric Princes wouldn't want to tap the most powerful hero around. The gods in the TES universe are real entities who are always tampering with things and toying with the strings of destiny, and the Princes are notorious for this. To deny their involvement in history is a little silly.

And it's a running joke, when you think about it, just by looking at the last three episodes:

Hidden:

Azura brings about the Nerevarine, pretty much destroys the homeland of the people who worship her;
Sheogorath grabs the Champion of Cyrodiil, pretty much keeps a powerful hero from assisting the Empire further;
Hermaeus Mora gets involved with the Dragonborn...but what comes of that, only time will tell.

The Princes are neither good nor evil, but they love chaos. And boy, are they good at it! I always like seeing how they're involved.

TES6? The new project was described as having just left pre-production: Considering Oblivion was started shortly after the release of Morrowind, and Skyrim was started shortly after the release of Oblivion, it'd make sense for TES6 to leave pre-production about now... Guess we'll see sometime around 2018...

[ZackyZombify]

So you're saying that ES6 is going to leave Tamriel and not only emerge itself with the real world, but be in the point of time when barbed wire coils and Bach are around.

Good for ya. Really. But i'd like to think that sweating from my private parts in the name of for that is good and rightouswould actually MEAN someting in the end.

bah nevermind. why the heck am i complaining here, eh?

daedra this and daedra that. let's skip that. the dev team themselves are dunmer fans for hecks sake what else did i expect. but hey. at least you tes3 fans got your litte morrowind nostalgia. are you not entertained?

[Mr.Argonian]

There's a lot of hostility in this thread, against the people who gave you Skyrim. Why should they have to make more DLC for you, when they have already made one of the greatest games of this generation, and you are complaining? So there are some bugs that could do with fixing, but don't tell me every other game released patches every single bug contained in it. Maybe instead of attacking Bethesda, we could just remember all the memories we have of Skyrim, and the ones that are still to come.

[tornadokirby]

I'm a bit disappointed that they won't be working on any more DLC, but at this point it didn't look like there was going to be more anyway. I think it's good that the entire team will be working on their next big project.

BGS did not give us Skyrim, they sold it to us and when we pay for "one of the greatest games of this generation" we have every right to complain about its bugs, lack of DLC, and everything else under the twin moons. And on the subject of DLC, BGS game studios could have released at least one more to include a true conclusion to the Dragonborn's story. I, along with many other players, were ready to throw our cash at BGS for the next DLC. And who at BGS doesn't want more cash? Srsly man, who?

[Chaos the N'wah]

I'm happy with this, I want them to start working on their next title, the sooner they can ramp up production for the next ES

Spoiler:

I actually like where DB left us, not every ES hero has to become a god (We don't need more divines please) and the Dovahkiin's position leaves us the potential to run into him as an envoy of Hermaeus Mora in the next title

It's a somewhat better fate then losing everything you were to become the king of the crazies

I can assure you that we won't run into a canonized Dragonborn. The most we'll get is a rumour of his demise.

Why? We met the Champion of Cyrodiil, I wouldn't be surprised to see a masked cultist with leading dialogue.
I can assure you that we won't hear of his demise, the closest they'll get to his death would be whereabouts unknown

[Br3admax]

We won't see a cultist either. They won't set a canon fate of servitude.

[Pilaf The Defiler]

I think Skyrim had enough DLC to be honest. It was overall of a higher quality than most of Oblivion's DLC with the obvious exceptions of KOTN and Shivering Isles, which were second to none. They kinda dropped the ball with Hearthfire. I can forgive that, though. It was ok for what it was.

Personally I look forward to the next adventure. I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. They did okay by me with their last few games. I'm gonna stay positive and eagerly await what's coming at e3.

[Chaos the N'wah]

Yes, because the new Sheo is some random hobo that stumbled on divinity
I always love when people jump at comments that leave it open to a maybe and have to post their perceived definites, it's an opinion people, if you want to debate the dovahkiin's fate, go make a thread.

[legoless]

Bethesda's PR remains a disappointment.

Because the Dragonborn doesn't have to become a servant of Hermaues Mora. You can deny him till the end.

[scribbane]

That's not a fair comparison, considering that Skyrim is way more advance on the same system. If it was next gen, maybe. But it isn't.

Fine, I'll give you that. But I still think its foolish stop the dlc when it reaches the same number that we had in Oblivion. Think about it- Dawnguard=KOTN, DB=SI, and HF= all of the small house dlc's that we got. Maybe its just me, but its seems like you should strive to do more than what you did previously. That seems to be the only way you improve yourself and your products.

Quality over Quantity. So even if we did only get the same amount of DLC, the quality of that content is arguably better. I would absolutely not want to see more DLC just for the sake of giving more than Oblivion did if the content isn't up to par.

BGS did not give us Skyrim, they sold it to us and when we pay for "one of the greatest games of this generation" we have every right to complain about its bugs, lack of DLC, and everything else under the twin moons. And on the subject of DLC, BGS game studios could have released at least one more to include a true conclusion to the Dragonborn's story.

You don't have a right to complain about lack of DLC. It's extra stuff that they add to the game, and if they decide not to go through with it, that decision lies with them. It's nice when the continue to add to a popular game, but they aren't required to. As for a "true conclusion" to the story...its an open world RPG. You can play the game and never touch a single questline (apart from the intro granted), so everyone's story is truly their own. And there is a canon Dragonborn, or they will have decided on a canon by the time the next game comes around. What was really left unfinished?

Now I know many people talk about the bugs and glitches, but I have personally come across very few, and the ones I've seen don't always happen, so its not a persistent problem for me. Maybe I've just gotten lucky, or maybe I can just overlook some of the things in the game, but again, to me, bugs were never a problem. And if people are/were really so turned off by bugs in this game, why complain about the lack of more "buggy" content?

[Evil-i]

The point is, if Bethesda had been behaving like a group of professionals and learning from its mistakes over the past decade, more content (and even the game itself) needn't and shouldn't have been so buggy.

It's the public spewings of the knee-jerk apologetic fanboys that consistently reinforces the one message that Bethesda has taken to heart: "We don't need to bolt things together more robustly; these uncritical simpletons will continue to buy our flawed wares and gush over them in public."
