Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim DLC to Be More like Expansion Packs

Bethesda and DLC seem to go hand-in-hand these days, but director Todd Howard is promising that Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim DLC will be substantially large. In a video interview with AusGamers, Howard announced that he expects Skyrim to have less DLC, but ones that have an “expansion pack feel.”

“They’ve been really successful and we like making them,” said Howard, talking about Bethesda’s DLC releases. “Right now I can say that we’d like to do less DLC but bigger ones—you know, more substantial. The Fallout 3 pace that we did was very chaotic. We did a lot of them—we had two overlapping groups—and we don’t know what we’re going to make yet, but we’d like them to be closer to an expansion pack feel.”

With confirmation that Skyrim will have “hundreds of hours of content”, this can only mean that Bethesda is trying to take over your life with Skyrim.
