MadCap's Trailer Reactions - "Skyrim: Dragonborn"


...well, I need a cigarette.

It seems that in spite of their inability to get Dawnguard out for PS3 and their less than pleasing addition to their DLCs, it seems that Bethesda might finally be hitting the high notes once more with "Dragonborn", a DLC out for release on December 4th of this year, just in time for...a few weeks before Christmas. And I'm not gonna lie, this actually looks really good.

If you've played Skyrim, then chances are you've run into at least one of the Dragon Priests that are entombed in the icy wilderness in various dungeons, caves, and even mountaintops, each one with their own nifty mask and if you could kill them all, you could use their masks to get a super special awesome mask. Now here comes Dragonborn, the third DLC, that teases of 'the first Dragonborn', attempting to rise once again. This is an idea that was teased in vanilla Skyrim, that perhaps the player character was not the only Dragonborn.

And outside of the storyline - Morrowind-esque buildings and scenery, brand new enemies to impale on a sword, and...dragon mounts?! Yes, it seems we will be able to put dragons to use as mounts, though how this will be applied to the game world is left unknown for the time being. All I can say? Sign me up. The whole thing.

And guys, please work it out and send it to the PS3 people, too. (Yes, I'm still on about that)

And I do wonder just how we'll have to deal with the newly-awakened older Dragonborn.  Because, after all...

In the end...there can be only one!

Dragonborn will be available for download from Xbox Live on December 4th for 1600 MSP.

Hopefully it will be available for the PS3 crowd, too...
