    The Dragonborn DLC pack releases today on the Xbox 360 and Bethesda says it will come to PC an PS3 in "early 2013."

    The highest level character I have is only 62 at the moment. Does anyone else have a character high enough to do this mission?

    If you haven't played Dragonborn and Dawnguard yet, there are very formidable enemies in there. I don't know if they scale to your level or if Bethesda expects you to be near level 60 when you get to them, but... Damn!!

    I'm only at 35 since I started over. Last toon was 40 or so but I killed too many innocent NPCs with that one and every city was a ghost town. :sigh:

    No.... Dawngaurd has been on PC for months. Dragonborn was released on Xbox in late November and will make its way to PC in Feb. I chose to play this on Xbox because I heard it ran terribly on PS3. The DLC just so happens to be coming to Xbox first.

    Ah, I was under the impression you were PS3 and were excited about getting content after well over a year. :P

    The whole fiasco has soured me somewhat on Bethesda. It would be wrong to blame the PS3 for this since the hardware has been exactly the same since 2006. Bethesda released a game for this platform that ran like shit. I'm glad it's finally working (I hope), but I've already played this game on another platform.

    Just got Dragonborn yesterday. I kinda forgot about it.
    Got to say, its great, I almost had a Morrowind nerdgasm about 10 times.
    Solstheim has been covered with ash from the red mountain and is now inhabited by Dark elves. I'd forgotten how odd the dunmer culture and architecture was.

    I wish ES games made the world more "fantastic" and less boring looking. Also, Bethesda make great environments...but their NPC and PC characters are hideous.

    I'm on an eternal quest to find mods to fix these issues.

    Is anyone still playing this? I can't believe that it's approaching 2 years since this was released and I'm still tempted to go back to it from time to time. I'm in the middle of Grand Theft Auto V for crying out loud. This game was really something special. I'm listening to the soundtrack now. Wind Guide You to be specific. It's giving me goosebumps.
