How is everyone not loosing their minds over the MOUNTED COMBAT!?!?!? So much more exciting than crossbows!!! Let's get our Skyrim: Mount & Blade on!!! 
The Dawnguard Debut Trailer is Here!
- Thread starter Andy Chalk
- Start date
I still say there's a possibility for Dragoons in Skyrim! Besides, vampires getting impaled by spears just seems...I dunno, natural to me.Patrick_and_the_ricks said:

Really hoping that there's a way to side with the vampires and make the world eternal twilight.
Really expecting to be disappointed in that regard.

They aren't stupid, whatever Microsoft is paying for the timed exclusive stuff must be more than the money they'd lose from angry fans. They'd have experts and data proving it before they agreed. It must have been a pretty hefty sum too, Bethesda is a pretty honorable studio and wouldn't want to alienate fans unless it was an offer they couldn't refuse.Baresark said:
This reminds me of a book you can find in both Oblivion and Skyrim were it talks about a vampire hunter that goes to Skyrim for a bit and fights a clan of vampires which I can't remember the name of that are incrediblly strong quick and can break through the ice without actually breaking it and live in remote haunted lakes in eastern Skyrim has Bethsada been planing this from the start
Exsangui-Nation... is the name of my Men at Work cover band.
Still, Dawnguard looks great. Mounted combat is already changing how I play Skyrim... I've lost about 7 horses already. It was easier to keep them alive when you had to park them a mile away from any fight you might get into. But their deaths from falling, mauling, stabbing, giant-smacking, and dragon-roasting have looked so cool... I've just decided to make them "canon" to my story.

Wait wait wait... There were two different vampire transformations in that trailer: a buff vampire(presumably for warriors), and withered vampire (presumably for mages). Does that mean there will be another one for stealthy characters? Do we only get one transformation per character, or will we have access to all of them? Or will this be a whole new perk tree?
So many questions!!!

Vampires vs vampire hunters. Seems obvious story to me, choose a side and beat the enemy. I will just wait for the GOTY eddition.
The thing with Bethesa is they seem to have a recurring pattern. It goes like this:
Fans: Can we have this?
Bethesda: We can't do it yet. But we do have a new game out!
Fans: But the new game is not as good.
Bethesda: But it's a new game!
New fans: This is great!
Bethesda: Let's give our new fans the things our old ones always wanted!
Fans: Oh well, we have mods.
This would have been far better in Oblivion, you know, when we all asked for crossbows, mounted combat, werewolves and the like, and didn't ask for a better protagonist. Dovahkiin is just awful... Dragon shouts? I used like... one of them on occasion (...and no, it wasn't "Fus ro dah". That one sucked. Hard.). I much prefered slinging spells with a two handed weapon to shouting people to death. If I wanted to shout people to death I'd just come to this forum (Ha, I said that because I'm awful.). IMO, just re-release oblivion with better graphics and more stuff.
[Note (AKA:Rage)]: DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT WAS TO MAKE A WORKING PALADIN IN SKYRIM!? REALLY!? SWAPPING BETWEEN SPELLS AND WEAPONS! AND, WITHOUT A F***ING QUICK SELECT! RAAAGHRGHEGHRAGHGDF.

Yes, this.Deshin said:God damnit Bethesda now I have to roll a vampire character. I thought I had Skyrim behind me for a good while
I think this looks like it will be quite fun. It will also be nice to see another castle that isn't totally destroyed, or just left in ruins full of bandits.
So the story is about an elder scroll again. So far TES has had absolutely nothing to do with the actual elder scrolls themselves and now we get 2 in 1 game.
