The next DLC. Thoughts and discussion.

bedlom

So what do we know.
Argonian dungeon pack.
Barber shop.

Because a DLC dungeon only pack doesn't sound good to me : (

Yay for console chat box.

Abeille

I'm not getting my hopes up for a new area. If we get one, it will be a pleasant surprise. Right now, the dungeons and the barbershop are all I am hoping for Q3.

Maybe we can get new bard songs now. I remember someone saying that they could do it once there was a DLC without an area that needed music to be designed for it, or something like that. With how immersed we were in Orsimeri lore with Orsinium, I was very disappointed to see that we had no Orsimeri bard songs added.

-LAG and Bag Fixes - i know it is not possible tho..
-Balance between classes - i know also not possible


- 4 new vet and normal dungeon - with making normal dungeon vet to which normal one does not have at the moment
- 1 adventure zone with trials in it
- CP 160 scale for Helra,AA and DSA
- Race Change
- Duel options
- DPS dummy


to me enough:)

Vildebill

A lot of locations in Vvardenfell were datamined pretty recently, so i think we can expect to head back there sometime soon

Mettaricana

Gimme a new wrothgar sized zone a group dungeon maybe a public and a trial a hefty amoubt of quests and a story

Did ZOS not hint at Vvardenfell being the next DLC at the end of the quest 'The Sweetroll Killer'?
I can already see Naryu's death.

Yes it could be but that wont be til next year

Anhedonie

Crown store token it seems. Still, I'd prefer to pay gold if I want to change only hairstyle and nothing more.

SlayerTheDragon

The Barber needs to be in gold currency as well - not just crown store.

If not then ZOS needs to make all motifs, all costumes (disguises), and all dye crown store only as well. Because how can you do these for free, but not change your hairstyle...

Molag_Crow

Next DLC: Revenge of Molag Bal

Molag Bal turns everyone's character into a candlestick and the only attacks we have are "burn" with our tiny flames, so we all have to work together to create a large enough flame to attack and I have absolutely no idea what I am typing right now but the words are flowing through me like Sheo's madness.

So my thoughts are, do you think we could/should get a new zone with this DLC.
Say...Murkmire? I am not sure.

I hope console chat makes its long awaited appearance.

What do you think the barbershop will be?
What are your thoughts on the next DLC?

Been asking for clarification on this for about a week now. Would be great to hear from @ZOS_JessicaFolsom whether the quote in the interview was taken a little too literally or whether we are actually getting tiny little updates from here on out.

Arena and battlegrounds!!1 :-)

Add some more stuff to do pvp related to IC districts other than them mindless flag capping

They also hint on Vvardenfell on the very 1st quest of DB when you meet the Speaker. If you keep asking him questions, he'll eventually say that Dark Brotherhood is having some trouble in Vvardenfell. Not much, but it's definetly a hint.

I cant imagine just getting four dungeons that ain't even somewhere we can travel to.

This was all I was concerned about for Q3, and it's finally coming. SO HAPPY.:D For those of you who do not understand the importance of this (being on PC and all), try going over a year without being able to communicate in an MMO.

Thank you ZOS for finally listening to us.

Bislobo

Appearance, Race, and Name Change
This alone made me clench my fist!

Xabien

Bit small - two dungeons and a repackage of some other stuff. Hopefully very cheap for those who buy it. For those who sub, not a whole lot of incentive to stay subbed.

Realistically there should be a new map and new story for each DLC. One map is small enough, kind of a minimum to strive for IMO, not a 'high bar' to duck under whenever the content development pipeline dries up...

I hope we dont have to use it bc I hate typing when playing. If you cant talk to me then I dont want anything to do with you anyways.

Yh other than console txt chat everything else feel like a flop.

I'm betting PTS will be available by the end of the month. I think we should get ready to embrace small dlc releases more often.

Ep1kMalware

wow,just wow. 2 dungeons, hair/race/name/gender changes, dying costumes, sd==scaled trials.. just woah. zos been workin their butts off and all we do is complain, yet heres all this stuff we wanted

Rainteal

I feel like there is a lot there.

I was really looking forward to some new dungeons, hopefully very challenging vet versions, so that will be awesome. The new SO makes me enjoy running that dungeon again because there is some actual valuable loot dropping again. I believe that AA and HRC will have a similar feel with updated gear and difficulty.

And vDSA at max level again.... YES!!

People want it so that they can create teams for dungeons/trials, People want it so they can sell things with ease, People want it because it's effectively more reliable than just having voice chat alone. Of course players will speak when doing dungeons/trials but you can't expect 50 people in a town to be all speaking at any given time in "area chat"...It simply doesn't work! You're forgetting aswel on the EU server that there are language barriers, This eliminates the problem as it has done for decades on other mmos,.

Nobody is forcing you to type, it's just adding an alternative to the game to help players out.

Cyrodiil town capture will be fun.

These dungeons were datamined with the Vvardenfell datamine, so hopefully, fingers crossed Vvardenfell is Q4.

It's okay, definitely excited for new dungeons, but ... The DLC's are getting smaller and smaller.

Here's hoping the Q4 DLC is larger.

Na you don't have to. Zeni said they was gonna give us the option to disable it.
Just like my VC has been since day one lol

Avalon

After TG & DB, how about a DLC focusing on the Vigilante of Stendarr? We've had plenty of bad/chaotic/lawbreaker stuff, how about some 'good-guy' things for a change? Lol

I agree. It seems that this release will have a lot of the quality of life additions that the community is begging for but what after this?

I hope it is a focus on larger releases like orsinium. I feel like a dungeon, public dungeon, multiple delves, and 40+ hours of storyline quest should be the norm.

I'd rather have 3 large DLCs per year instead of a mix of 4.

mb10

Makes logical sense for clockwork city to be Q4 but hopefully they treat us to murkmire in q3 but thats asking a lot.


I kinda like how we all have no real idea of whats next though!

Btw how is barber shop even considered a title for a dlc by some of you? Should be a SMALL aspect of a future dlc not the main thing its literally character creation but after the start of the game. Not a new engine or anything...

ADarklore

Just have to write and say... "I TOLD YOU SO" to all those who argued with me that small content 'Dungeon Pack' meant content like TG and DB. NOPE... all we're getting is TWO dungeons... no quests, nothing remotely like TG or DB. Almost exactly like what DCUO delivers... for those who like questing, guess what... we're stuck waiting until our turn for some sort of 'content pack' rolls around.

rhapsodious

Honestly I'd prefer repeatable content like dungeons and revamped trials to quests that I do once and am very whelmed by the endings.

(vague spoiler about DB questline)

It would have been a nice change of pace to not kill off a bunch of the sanctuary this time around, but apparently the Dark Brotherhood undergoes extreme restructuring every time a player character walks in the door.

Dungeons are repeatable, too. And we haven't had any added in a year, assuming you don't count MOL. Least if the next DLC is a full zone you'll have plenty of quests. (:

A DLC dungeon only pack sounds awesome to me, as long as it's enough content. I'm concerned that it may not be enough dungeon content, though. We'll have to wait and see.
