I finished the main quest of the DLC yesterday, but there's still a lot of side quests and locations to investigate in Solstheim so I'd say that it adds some 25-30 hours worth of new content.

Considering I'm new to anything Elder Scrolls ever, I have no idea what you're talking about.

The cliff racer is a flying creature indigenous to the province of Morrowind, known for either bugging the shit out of you or scaring the shit out of you (or both), depending on the nature of your encounter.

Just saw a video. Sucks you can't move the dragon, but that's still pretty awesome. I'm sure PS3 will finally make it available when no one cares about Skyrim anymore.

Zook, I won’t stop caring about Skyrim until either Fallout IV or Elder Scrolls VI comes out, so I’d say you’re safe… for now.

I've initially lost interest, but I think that's just because I'm not into gaming right now, but it took 4 years for Skyrim, so there's still a long wait.

If you count ES Online, that's coming in 2013, but I'm not sure that will fill the void, so here's to hoping for Fallout IV by late 2014.

I hope (but extremely doubt) that Bethesda followed the same cycle as they did for Oblivion/Fallout 3 and release Fallout 4 fall 2013... but they haven't even announced it yet. :(

Finally tweaked my Catalyst settings to get absolute smooth settings on Ultra, and tweaked the .ini to get rid of that damn annoying texture pop-in where trees would magically change shape once I got within 20 yards of them. So nice playing without something breaking the immersion.
Listen! Do you smell something?

Got Skyrim a few days ago with Dawnguard.

I have to say, the Dawnguard must be Nirn's worst vampire hunters.

I bought Dawnguard some time ago, but I've only started playing Skyrim again this week. Slowly starting the Dawnguard questline; I'm going to join the vampires with my super evil rogue character  :xbones

It ended up being cheaper for me to buy it on Amazon, it took a whole DVD case with proper cover art and everything to keep a slip card with a Steam code safe :P

I can't wait for Dragonborn either, but I still have so much to do with the DLC-free game, I only got it a few days ago and school started back up :(

The stand alone game can keep you very busy. I really need to start playing again, but its hard to get enough time and I've been addicted to BO2 because I can play a quick game or two and get my video game fix for the day.

Is it just me who love all the books in Skyrim? I don't read all but i just love to see and find books i haven't seen before. I mean the amount of detail in just the books from Bethesda is just awesome.

I read that there is 820 books (Skill/Spell/Quest books, journals, letters and recipes) in Skyrim.

I've never been interested enough to look, but my friend claims there is a website with all of the books on it.
