The dragon-born is back for more with the release of
“Skyrim’s” first downloadable expansion giving gamers even more than they
already had; “Dawnguard” brings a new story for gamers to follow along with new
perks, powers and new transformation the Vampire Lord. While there were already
vampires in “Skyrim” these creatures are a cut above the vampires we’ve seen
before with amazing powers that can be upgraded through the new skill tree
brought to the game for the Vampire Lord, a skill tree will also be brought to
those Werewolf players out there. With this DLC also comes a level cap increase,
for those players who have reached their level 50 limit, players can continue
increasing their abilities to new heights. Add onto the fact that “Dawnguard”
offers a massive new quest to be followed, gamers will have their hands full
for a while with “Skyrim” action if they have already gone through the main
story line and have become a full-fledged dragon-born and adds even more
excitement for those who haven’t.
“Dawnguard” still brings out all that players love or will
come to love from “Skyrim” offering even more incredible graphics and design
put into the new quest line players can follow, new and incredibly jaw dropping
battles come from this new DLC. For the reasonable price of twenty dollars
“Dawnguard” offers so much for anyone to enjoy and while the DLC alone doesn’t
offer the overall lasting appeal of “Skyrim”, the benefits given through the
DLC can continue to enhance your adventuring.
Good:
-Level cap increase
-New transformation class
-Expansive and highly enjoyable new quest
Bad:
-Minor quarks here and there
