There seems to be a lot of anger and frustration on the forums, so I thought I'd get in first and say the game still seems really popular despite some persistent bugs. The thieves guild dlc is surprisingly small, but it introduced loads of immersive new mechanics that I expect we'll see in future content. And the new gear is fun and easy to aquire.

Changes? Some chamges to the champion system gave magicka characters a boost, but the big changes (removal of veteran ranks and changes to stamina characters) are coming with dark brotherhood in a couple of months.

Ask it ingame and you'll get a much better idea for yourself. These forums are toxic......as are my underpants at this time of night.

Thanks

great!

loved it.

played through twice so far with different char and different choices, still lotsa fun.

I would say it was as good as orsinium DLC but smaller, of course, and i hope they continue the good work with Dark brotherhood out in the next couple of months.

The Thieves Guild DLC, imo, was better than the Imperial City DLC but not as good as the Orsinium DLC. As far as compelling content went, the Thieves Guild was simply too small, and its content too scattered to be of much interest to many individuals.

Ultimately however, the Thieves Guild did do what it aimed for--mainly fleshing out the Justice System. New thieving activities, a new passive skill line and other knick-knacky things like troves have been added. Which is good if that's your thing.

Despite what anyone says, get the DLC if you want it.
But my advice? I suspect you'll get the most enjoyment out of it if you spread out how many thieving activities you do. The actual DLC area is quite small, and apart from Maw of Lorkhaj, is fairly easy to get out of the way. Then all that's left is the new thieving mechanics, and those can get stale pretty quick if you focus on playing them exclusively. I say play as you do normally (questing, PvP, group content) but only do the various thieving activities to spice it up every once in a while. Might make the novelty last longer.

TG was a good DLC for its price (solid story, interesting characters, etc) but a really bad patch, with tons of bugs.
