Dawnguard.

Post by drumgodrob »

So the DLC/expansion was just announced!! No other clues beyond the title just yet, and a poster. More to come at E3.

So what do we all think?!?!?! :D

EDIT: I know we've not got much to go with at the minute, but still!

It is kinda amusing that there is some outrage about their announcement and the fact people are now realizing that the 360 gets the dlc a month before anyone else.

Why would anyone be angry? It's been public information since before Skyrim was even released! This is about as surprising as the need to get another calendar at the end of the year!

Best DLC ever! Makes me even more glad I'm a 360-er!

I think the other one was made before the DLC was announced. It was just a final prediction one (if we're thinking of the same one).

Maybe just a big hoax and dawnguard is the name of the dlc you need for the kinect integration!

Edit: Sry missed this news out, that it is already released, but would have been funny.

The Kinect integration is already released. If you have a Kinect, you can already use it.

It either has something to do with the Mythic Dawn and Dawnstar (after all, Silus' museum was there), Meridia (whose artifact is Dawnbreaker) or Azura (the Daedric prince of dusk and dawn).

Or it could have something to do with Redguard, or basically everything else with "Dawn" or "Guard" in its name according to popular consensus.

Hah, I know what you mean. That name is so vague, because there are so many things in the Elder Scrolls universe that include "Dawn" and "Guard". For me, the glowing eyes seem to push it towards something Daedra-related. Most likely either Mehrunes or Meridia.

I want to guess that it has to do with the Dawnstar sword's background. His eyes look similar to the effect on the sword. I don't know where you get the sword though, so I don't know what background this DLC will have.

Are you talking about Dawnbreaker? That kind of makes sense actually. Meridia also hasn't been spotlighted ever (even during Knight of the Nine, when she should have been front line and center considering it was her Daedra invading), so it would be nice to give her a day in the limelight.

I think you mean the Dawnbreaker sword, but I know what you're saying. It was the eyes having the same glow as the sword that made me think of Meridia and Dawnbreaker.

Tamriel = Dawn's beauty
Dawnguard = Guarding Tamriel
Datamining files show Falmer presence and Vampires
Books in Skyrim hint at a Falmer invasion
Dawnguard = protecting Tamriel from a Falmer invasion
Falmer leader the "snow prince" is a vampire

my two cents

The Snow Prince's body was incinerated after he died. It can't be the "Snow Prince". Though, considering how Dawnguard turned out to be correct, it would probably be smart to treat the DLC files as being signs of what is to come.
