Skyrim Patch Hints at Future DLC Content

The discoveries come via a Skyrim fan Kerellan, who poked about in patch
1.5.26 and listed his discoveries on a DLC discussion thread in the Besthesda forum.
There is also mention of a Snow Elf prince, new vampire feeding
animation, and a mysterious prefix 'RF' which some are speculating could
refer to a new follower.
Back in February, Todd Howard showed a sizzle-reel containing various
ideas his team have put forward for the future of the game, ranging from
water arrows to the adoption of children.

During his keynote at the DICE 2012 games industry convention in Las
Vegas, Bethesda's creative director Todd Howard showed a sizzle-reel
containing various ideas his team have put forward for the future of the
game.


The ideas had come from a company-wide creative session at the end of
last year called Game Jam. Howard had asked his team to go away and
create ideas that could be added to Skyrim.
He stressed that they were all "experiments" and added that he has "no
idea if they will be released as DLC," adding, "maybe. we don't know".


The ideas shown included:


Spears

Kill cams for magic

Water arrows

Giant mud crabs

Paralysis runes

Seasonal foliage

Speedy water currents

Dark dungeons

Adoption of children

Advanced home building

Epic new mounts

Fast travel portals

Kinect dragon shouts

Enhanced water visuals
Ice and fire arrows

Lycanthrope perk tree

Vampire imp minions

Goblins


We'll have more info from his speech later tonight.


More information on the much-anticipated Skyrim DLC is expected to be released next week.
