I love Elder Scrolls and have been playing them all since I was a baby. I bought the quakecon pack only to play through every game you have made. But the downloadable content has made both me and my wife sad (though admittedly you have many still in your grasp). Hell, I even own 3 different copies of Morrowind, Fallout 3, and Oblivion because of my switch to computer gaming over console.
I bought Skyrim for about $60. My question is how can you justify an additional few hours of questing, mounted combat, and more barely playable vampire content for half the cost of the original game? The map has not doubled (or even 1/4 increased) in size. There was no real re-skinning and you had all the programming done for the most part. There isn't a flurry of new weaponry. And I can only presume that your next goal is to make Elder Scrolls online, free to play so that per month people are spending more than the typical subscription based format.
What happened to gaming for gaming's sake. I won't buy the DLC, and I do know others who wont either because of the 'Blizzard Effect;' increasingly making games harder to obtain financially.
Will there be a price reduction or are you going to lose touch with your client base just as many other producers have?

- Skyrim Collectors Edition Price-Drop? Skyrim T-Shirts? - posted in Deal Requests & Advice: Hey guys I just got 2 simple questions: 1) Do you guys think the Skyrim collector's edition will ever see a price drop, like how Killzone 3's collector's dropped in price, or do you think it will be limited and become rare? I really don't want to drop $150+ on a collector's edition, but it looks good.
