Skyrim DLC Will Be Timed 360 Exclusive
- Thread starter Andy Chalk
- Start date
It's really up to them I think. Announcing it early might save some rage, but honestly it might just make the rage worse. I own both consoles, so I'm good.
I'm kinda disappointed that elder scroll Skyrim will even have DLC. I mean, I would rather they sit down and focus on a giant package of content that has a reasonable but higher price rather than pay 5 dollars to put armor on my horses. Whats that called again? Oh yeah, an expansion.

But I said it once and I will say it again: Skyrim will be my entire winter.

Timed DLC is utterly ridiculous. It replaces decent competition which benefits the consumer with cheap tricks that only restrict our choice.
Well, people, that's the trade-off for Bethesda games since Fallout 3, and I think it's kinda fair!
PC players get great graphics, saves over Cloud, and lots of mods, Xbox players get their DLC a bit earlier, and PS3 players get nothing (actually, this isn't fair. Why?).
I remember Fallout: New Vegas in the months after release and during the wait for the Dead Money DLC to come out for PC, we got some mods available from the Nexus that would classify as "player-made DLC" in my book, such as the New Vegas Bounties and more.

It does look like they are going to make less add ons but larger ones. If you download it it is dlc no matter how big or small it is.Linkassassin360 said:I'm kinda disappointed that elder scroll Skyrim will even have DLC.

That's a bit annoying to say the least, surely the huge following that Elder Scrolls has got on the PC should really mean that the format that should get the DLC would be the PC, I mean what's a better way to thank the fans; A) Giving the dedicated long term fanbase the DLC first, or B) Screw you long time fans, we get more money this way!, Well?
Here is a plan, if you already have all this DLC planned put it in the fucking game instead of cheating us out of more damn money, not that we all wouldnt pay for it or anything cause this game is still gonna kick ass.

You can't get sued for stopping people from distributing moderations of a liscenced product such as a game.
Infact you can sue them, as unless a publisher gives their permission to tamper with software, you can't legally distribute mods for their software.
Well, All I have to say is, "I hope the DLCs are not going to be substancial, like a new location and quest line."
Us PS3 players like new things, too, Bethesda.

I'm quite saddened the more I hear about Skyrim.
At first the PC version was initially going to be the first design then we get told we are getting a port, takes me back to all the issues we had with Oblivion/F3/F:NV.
Now we find out DLC is 360 first which means even the DLC will be ported (again it's going to be fallout bugs and glitches all over again).
A game I had my heart set on when I first heard about it is slowly turning me away from it.
I don't care who gets what first if PC gamers can be promised a decent port but it's always .. ALWAYS .. shit.
I've yet to come across a console to PC port that actually works as intended.

And isn't Bethesda trying to get mod support on console? Could happen on PS3... but sure as hell will never happen with the 360. Could be Bethesda making it up to fans not getting mods? Speculating. Hell, they probably aren't even trying to implement mod support on consoles and I'm just misinformed.
