The first DLC for Skyrim promised to immerse the player in the life of your character more thoroughly than before by offering you the ability to purchase property in the countryside, custom build your own home, and raise a family. Hearthfire adds more meaningless time-sinks Silt Striders, Cthulhu cultists, and dragon riders.Dragonborn hides worthwhile rewards behind an unmotivated adventure and horde of glitches.

Characters and quests are actually good!.

Stupid vampires create genuine motivation in Dawnguard.

Many (if not all) of my complaints can probably be relieved on the PC by mods. Instead of making my original review longer and more complicated (it's already long enough), I'll lump all the DLC reviews into this one post.Īs a reminder, I am playing the PS3 version of the game, so my review applies specifically to the console version. But the game does include three paid DLC packs that are fairly hit-or-miss.

In my Skyrim review, I pretty much only considered the base game content.
