Dawnguard.

[Dirty Spaceman]

I encountered what seemed to be a blitz of Dawnguard quest-starting propaganda. I got the guard dialogue the second I walked into the Temple of Mara courtyard in Riften, then on my way out of the city,

Spoiler:

Two Death Hounds and a Master Vampire attacked, only to be put down by the guards and Durak, who also suggested I visit Fort Dawnguard. And also, after exiting Dimhollow Crypt with Serana, I visited the Hall of the Vigilant and discovered that it was indeed a smoldering ruin.

[Gideon Dragontongue]

OMG

Spoiler:

Jiub

is in Dawnguard.

my day = made.

I would buy Dawnguard for that alone.

[cheap pocketman]

I've found a workaround that seems to be holding for now. Perhaps other players encountered a member of the Dawnguard (Durak) wandering around towns in Skyrim?

I didn't the first time (the bugged time) but I did when playing through with another character who didn't exhibit the bug. This is the member who tells you about the Hall of the Vigilant.

I visited the Hall first this time, then went to Fort Dawnguard. This seems to avoid the bug.

Oh... I recently went and slaughtered every Vigilant of Stendarr there with both characters I plan on doing DG with. When I get DG on friday, does anyone know if this will complicate things?

[Hissien]

This officially puts me in a state of " TAKE MY MONEY NOW BETHESDA". has anyone seen the female vampire lord character model yet?

Not at all. I've killed them plenty of times and my game's been fine.

[Gideon Dragontongue]

Does Dawnguard take place in Skyrim, or are any new towns outside of the main headquarters added?

[rpbraley868]

Spoiler:

So being at the last stage of vampirism will not cause people to attack you anymore? Did i hear about that correctly?Only if you turn into a vamp lord do they attack?

[Frost Mage]

So, without spoiling anything for someone that won't be able to play Dawnguard until Thursday, did Dawnguard exceed your expectations?

[rpbraley868]

Man,im loving the crossbow! I think they implemented it very well

[MathiasFlynnias]

Not only that!

Spoiler:

He states he was in kvatch when it was attacked. Just the links to all the games are making me happy. AND he has the original husky voice of the dunmer.

Well I'm chuffed.

New AI animations and follower movements pretty immense too. Exceed all expectations so far.

[soda popinski]

Anyone found someone who will sell bolts?

[Frost Mage]

Lucky [&@%!] with your silly expansion pack... I bet it sucks anyway! Why god? Whyyyy?!

This, a thousand times this..... T.T

[rpbraley868]

heh

Spoiler:

I had to laugh out loud when i walked into Fort Dawnguard as a full vampire and Isran mentioned they were in such bad shape that a vamp could just stroll on in.

[Ysmir]

Omg.

Spoiler:

There are Falmer that weren't affected by the Mushrooms. They also claim Akatosh/Auri-El was their patron god. New Falmer enemy - Warmonger and new Falmer armor.

Went over to my friend's house who is further along than me to see this writing this from his tablet I am on my way home to find out myself. Still haven't encountered any bugs.....yet but I am not too far along.

[SajuukKhar]

i have to say

Spoiler:

Serana

, is a GREAT companion. Seriously, like, so well done.

Actually has AI and interacts with things, and doesn't say "OHH LOOK A CAVE" every 5 seconds.

I have to agree with that, she is awesome.

[Yaije]

Only encountered one real nuisance. When going between vamp lord and normal form the game equips all but one item. I usually never realize untill I'm oom and trying to cast 8+ incinerates into a crowd.

edit: anyone else have a hard time last hitting mobs to fill out the perk bar or doing power attack bites?

[MathiasFlynnias]

Omg. I have found a bug. I think. Not sure if this was prior to update but I can't purchase an alchemy room for breezehome anymore. It lets me buy it again and again but never gives it to me. Never encountered prior to installing... HMMMM.

But I have to agree with above, greatest companion there is.

[SajuukKhar]

Nope that was a bung confirmed in the beta, or so ive read.

[MathiasFlynnias]

Damn it.

In other news, I need help on DG.

Spoiler:

Can anyone tell me how to retrieve the Dragon Elder scroll? It just tells me to go to the College of Winterhold but then sets me prematurely on the trail of the elder scroll you get in the MQ. Is that the one I need or what?

[drumgodrob]

I have to say this may just be the best DLC i've ever played. SO worth the money.

Not gonna spoil anything, but i will say that there is a MASSIVE side quest with has nothing to do with the main DLC storyline. It's huge. I don't even think i'm a quarter of the way through it yet. Been doing it for a while too.

I cannot stress how good this is.

[MathiasFlynnias]

You have to be level 10 before you can. That's about it.
