Skyrim DLC Will Be Timed 360 Exclusive

[ViciousTide]

I was flying on my dragon butt naked as a hot chick in Oblivion for PC. When does that DLC come out for Xbox 360? I play through the game on console first. Then instead of buying DLC with MS Gold i buy the PC version for $5 on Steam and Mod, Mod, Mod to my heart's content with naked chicks
I expect to do the same with Skyrim. (Hopefully with better nude graphics

"30 days later" hardly seems 'exclusive' You're not really excluded from something if you just have to wait in a line.

By the time the DLC is out, i hardly doubt ill be finished combing every inch of wilderness for dragons anyway, so it wont have any effect at all.

PC for me.

I don't even see it as a line, so much as I do just an "Oh, what's this mod do" vacation.

 

[DaxStrife]

Yeah, I'd be upset except that I wasn't exactly impressed with the DLC for Oblivion. If they're more like the DLC packs for Fallout 3 (new different areas, weapons, stories, etc.) I might be interested, but the Oblivion stuff was rather tame, mostly Horse Armor and new houses.

 

[Eleima]

Honestly, I'd rather see (and pay) for a full expansion like Shivering Isles, then have DLC like... (yes, you guessed it) horse armor. ^_^

So now it's not even a "Hey guys, look what we made to augment your experience!" It's a "Hey guys, we purposely left shit out of our game so you could pay for it later! Give us your money, our cash pools are a tad low after we bought everyone here a yacht!"

Worst part is, I will still most likely purchase and play any Skyrim DLC.

no thats not what it is. what it is is "Hey guys, look what we made to augment your experience. Pity Microsoft bribed and/or threatened us so you have to wait if you prefer the PC or PS3."
and i will probably get it on 360. i just use it more, and my PC is too low-power absolute shit to run games from post-2008 really.
and i wont get the DLC right away anyway. i'll be too busy playing the napoleon game (i call it this because 'vanilla game' means 'basic, bland game.' which is offensive to skyrim)

Getting the CE for 360.

All my friends are calling me a retard for pre-ordering the collectors edition >.< not that I care, I want that fucking dragon!

You need better friends....


IMHO

-sigh- I wish Microsoft didnt need to prove their childish or dicks...perhaps all this money you can throw @ ...um....Who the fuck makes CoD? Perhaps someday they can stop forcing people to pay for Gold...

Dreamin heh

 

[Blaster391]

Oh noes! I was really hoping for that horse Armour. Shame.

 

[Weaver]

There are mods for oblivion that add far better content than the official DLC packs.

 

[rembrandtqeinstein]

except for broken steel fallout 3 dlc sucked

I didn't play any of the oblivion dlc but the stuff for morrowind was pretty good

also the best thing about dlc is the extra assets they give to mod makers, bethesda has this track record of making great engines then dropping mediocre games into them

Hahah, yeah the worst thing about Elder Scrolls games is their lack of content. I mean, these games only have about 90 hours of gametime for each playthrough, compared with your average 8 hour campaign with almost zero replayability.

Seriously, reputations exist for a reason, and if there's one thing Elder Games aren't, it's light on content. The horse armour debacle was ridiculous, yes, but only because they charged, well...any money at all for a trivial add-on. I've never bought it and I doubt I'd care if they'd included it in the game.

Anyway, it seems that they haven't made any of the DLC yet, and don't even know what it will be, they're just *gasp* planning ahead.

OT: As I own a 360 and a computer not nearly good enough to run this, I'm kinda glad I'm getting DLC while missing out on all the awesome modding that will surely be happening in PC land.

Question is, what will PS3's be getting?

 

[Argtee]

Well, I'll be getting Skyrim for the PS3, (mainly because I don't have a lot of games for it) but I'm happy to see that the DLC will also be available for the PC and PS3.

 

[Darks63]

Yeah they pulled this crap with Dead Rising 2 as well by the time the DLC comes for the other platforms alot of the peole will have been done with the game

 

[mad825]

I wonder how big the cheque was...Wait, what? They paid in cash!?! Gosh!

 

[ZombieGenesis]

30 days earlier DLC.
Or thousands of awesome new mods including the immortal Martigens Monster Mod S.

I think I know which platform I'm getting it for, sorry Microsoft.
(Even if I wasn't using the PC I think I'd get it on PS3 anyway)

 

[pwnzerstick]

Why would I pay for dlc when I can get almost unlimited content from mods? Sorry Microsoft, but you're not gonna get me with this one.

 

[razer17]

Well at least us pc players will have 20x the content from mods.

I thought they said there won't be mod support? I could easily be getting mixed up with another game though...

Anyhow, I imagine Microsoft is paying a pretty penny to get the timed exclusivity, so I suppose it's fair enough. Companies do need to make money.

 

[Richardplex]

Well, living in the UK I'm getting the game a month late (thank you Game), so with this I'll be perfectly 30 days behind everyone.

MOd support is coming out on day 1, if possible. And on other consoles too, if possibly. you're getting it very confused my friend

 

[Crazycat690]

To me atleast, it just seems like a bad tactic, this wont get gamers to want a 360 more, if you own a 360 fine, then you might be happy, if you own a Ps3, not so much, the only thing Bethesda is doing is teasing Ps3 and PC gamers, MS should focus on exclusives and not on this bullshit. I'm sorry but I was just thinking about if I was gonna buy Skyrim because I know bethesda games haven't impressed in the past, and being a Ps3 gamer, this feels like Bethesda is basically saying "don'y buy this game please, unless you own a 360", and while PC gamers can tell bethesda "lol gtfo" pirate it and mod it, Ps3 gamers stand without much to do then. What is the point with DLC if you've already finished the game? Maybe I'm overracting, but Bethesda just pisses me off!
