Skyrim DLC to have more of an 'expansion pack feel'

@Dance Mofo Well yes, naturally that would be the next step.

@Dance Mofo It might even give you a stat boost instead of being strictly ornamental.

@Dance Mofo only for $15

@byaboy

Was that a horse joke or a typo?

@Fire Walk With Me

That would be because it was an actual expansion and not DLC.

@Fire Walk With Me Chesse for everyone!!!!!!

@Kalis DLC = DownLoadable Content. I downloaded it on top of Oblivion so it was dlc regardless of what they called it.

@Kalis Awakenings was DLC and that was pretty crappy.

@rob47
Dragon Age: Origins Awakening? Did we play the same thing? Awakening was amazing.

@will18057 the only "expansion pack" Oblivion really had was shivering aisle...even knights of the nine was treated as a regular DLC pack I think.

@will18057:

The former.

@Courtney Nah, should be a sidequest to get rid of cursed horse armor that takes 500 gold out of your inventory every 6 game hours

@FlashJS

My interpretation would be that DLC is any additional content you can download for a game be it horse armor, quests, weapons, clothing etc. Expansions are strictly additional playable portions to the games universe but are bigger in scope than just a standard new quest. Think of expansions as experiencing another part of the main game.

@FlashJS i agree, it seem this will be the norm for most games released on consoles, you buy half at retail and then you buy the rest as dlc, lets hope that the half of a game we get a retail should give us enough gameplay hours without us feeling robbed :(

DLC can be anything, it is downloadable content, whatever that content is. Lost and the Damned and Ballad of Gay Tony are examples of expansions that were DLC.

@mietha Clearly you shouldn't be in the business of translating anything, let alone English to English

@mietha yea never translate another thing in ur entire life

@2late2die

Ditto.

@ColorblindMonk

like a case for the horse armor?

Hows that New Vegas GOTY edition working out for ya? Do you really want to wait a year and a half to get this game?

@Undying:

It's working out great, thanks!

In the past year, I purchased and played all the Fallout 3 DLC, both Mass Effect games and am currently working on Dragon Age: Origins - all at massively discounted prices (usually $5-15) from waiting an extra year or so. I also have a growing backlog of games to play that I've purchased on sale for $5-15, such as STALKER 1+3, Batman Arkham Asylum, Bioshock 1, Morrowind+Oblivion GOTY, FEAR 1+2, The Witcher 1, Serious Sam 1+2, Gothic 1-3, Riddick, AvP, L4D 1+2, Torchlight, etc.

It helped that I was in a WoW black hole for around 3 years, so when I finally quit and went back to single-player games there were tons of discounts on the stuff I'd missed. I've been basically riding that wave of discounts ever since, which keeps me plenty busy to be able to wait for the new stuff to get old and cheap.

Honestly launch prices are just hype taxes of 300+ percent, and I've got a big enough backlog that it just doesn't make sense to pay full prices.

P.S. New Vegas is another game I'm waiting for a GOTY version of, along with Deus Ex 3 and Mass Effect 3. I noticed that New Vegas has actually already gone on sale for $15 at least once, but I'm holding out for a GOTY because I don't want to get roped into paying full price for all of the DLCs.

@Klearwater Killer Its crotchless.
