On Skyrim DLC

Speaking with Kotaku, Bethesda's Todd Howard discusses plans for DLC for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, saying each DLC pack will "feel closer to an expansion pack." There is also discussion of other smaller releases interspersed along the way (though Horse Armor goes unmentioned), and a discussion of ambitions besides DLC for tweaking and enhancing the game.

I am very surprised they are waiting so long to release content. People have spent a ridiculous amount of time in the game already, but I am noticing less and less people are playing it. Checking Steam stats and also the "what my friends have been playing" it has dropped off of #1 and slowly declining.....

Not sure when I will get it....

The game has only been out for a few months. It took 7 months for the first Morrowind expansion to be released and another 7 months for the one after that. It took about a year for the Oblivion expansion pack to be released.

If Bethesda really is trying to make the DLC more like expansion packs, then it makes sense for the development cycles to be longer. If people enjoyed Skyrim but eventually lost interest in it, then the DLC will probably reinvigorate that interest when it comes out.
