OK, so I’m checking out Dragonborn. I love the Morrowindesque atmosphere. This DLC is a very obvious flirt with us Morrowind-lovers, and at least where the atmosphere, parts of the landscape and architecture and even sound environment are concerned, it has succeeded. I got chills when I heard that Silt Strider screaming in the distance with accompanying music from Morrowind. Quite extraordinary. Visiting those same locations where I lived and fought 200 years ago also has its charm.
The land is really dangerous and you have to fight for every inch of it. I can’t tell you much about what I think of the story yet. I’ve done one dungeon and it was pretty much standard vanilla Skyrim, unfortunately. Run through, kill the boss and grab the treasure.
But well, yeah, Dragonborn has resources I’m drooling at for Frontier as well. I guessed it. I mean mushroom houses. Who can resist!? Some screenies without getting spoilerish.
This is really going to be a fun addition to Skyrim. But I am going to hold off for awhile on purchase…I am having a ball with New Vegas, and am busy with other things, plus am meeting women left and right.
Oh women. That does take precedence. Good luck, and tell us how it goes

Those shots bring back memories from good ol’ Vvardenfell.
You bet! They’ve even reused the sound effects and music from Morrowind. I don’t usually encourage that in games, but geez, in this situation it was well warranted and really appreciated too.
Yes. I’ve heard from HoT members who bought Dragonborn. I’m putting it off a little. hoping to get the dlc at a discount — if I’m that lucky –
I used some sounds and music files for my MW story when I was creating it. Maybe I’ll reuse some when making the return to Solsteim in my Skyrim fiction. But it’ll be a while before I get there. Still working on getting the first chapter ready.
I found a nice cover of the Sovngarde Chant to use as background music for it
Got it on preorder but still to venture there. What level should one travel there?
From what I’ve heard, recommendations are lvl 25 plus.
Yep, that should do it. I’m not going back until I’m at Level 30 or something.
My girl is Level 21, but I brought a friend too which has helped. I’ve been really struggling though, and I think I need to head back to level up some more before I can continue. It’s really dangerous. You have to fight for every small inch of ground.
