The eyes in that picture...

They look like vampire eyes.
Would go well with the new vampire feeding animations data-mined from some of the newer patches.

Awesome. If it is anything like the size of Shivering Isles, this will be a great DLC. I hope. I wish we had true expansion packs. Seems like only Creative Assembly and Relic continue to put them out.

Happy days! Hopefully it's available before Sum-

E3? damn...

And it's strange to see so many people exited by just one picture and a name... but who cares? IT'S SKYRIM.

To the guy below me: PS3 always gets the shitty end of the shit spectrum.

Also before anyone jumps the gun on it only saying xbox 360 under the title on Bethblog, Gstaff, a Bethesda mod, has already confirmed it is coming to other systems.

As noted before, the first two add-on content drops for Skyrim will be releasing exclusively on Xbox 360 before it?s available anywhere else.[/quote]

I just want Beth to release the final patch so the unofficial patch will have a concrete build to work on.

Meh, don't really care for the Xbox 360 exclusive thing.
We have mods to pass the time. Those poor PS3 players on the other hand... I feel bad for them.

I wonder exactly how big it will be and what it will cost. My guess is it will be Point Lookout size and around 10-15 bucks.

I'm betting on a six month hiatus like those bastards at Irrational did for Bioshock 2's DLC.

Bethesda has said before the DLC will feel more like expansions then DLC.

On first look I was a bit disappointed that this was all they let slip, but it actually does raise a few interesting points. =D

Quiver on the right shoulder? Crossbow bolts maybe?

Glowing eyes? Looking a bit rough (beard a bit longer, eyes a bit sunken)? Possibly he's vampire? Dawnguard: Guild of benevolent superhero vampires? I dunno.

Either way, roll on E3. =3

fun fact.

Tamriel is elvish for Dawn's beauty
Everyone on the Bethsoft boards are speculating that it's either something to do with Azura, Meridia, the birth of Tamriel or the Mythic Dawn.

Personally I think dawnguard is not an artifact, but rather simply guarding the dawn. Killing vampires/werewolves before the dawn approaches, guarding the next day from their evil.

God, I hope so. The Shivering Isles is still my favorite thing Bethesda has ever made themselves.

I'm not counting on it. And I'd say Point Lookout was pretty expansion-y.

Its more likely going to be about the falmer rising up to the surface to invade and the snow prince is a vampire which is why he isn't mutated

Isn't the Snow Prince kind of dead? I looted the stuff from his grave in Bloodmoon.
I hope it doesn't have anything to do with Falmer invading the surface, the idea just bores me. The only reason why I like them is because of the connection to the Dwemer. On the Surface there ain't no Dwemer ruins.(Well, sort of but you get my point.)
