McCaffreyism: Skyrim's Dragonborn DLC

The next set of DLC for Skyrim has its first adver-trailer, although no PC date is confirmed. In fact, only the 360 date is listed and it's a not-too-distant December 4th. Skyrim will soon incorporate the island of Solstheim, which doesn't look like it's completely covered in snow. There are some giant mushrooms and a house that looks like it might be carved out of a giant beetle carapace. It's a tad Morrowindy. Story-wise, it's all about the Dragonbeast, who is the first of the Dragonborn and an all round nasty piece of work. It also looks like dragons will be available as giant air-steeds. You'll never go back to Easyjet again.

I once rode a horse for a few hours and couldn't walk without wincing for days afterwards. Straddling a dragon would probably put me out of action for a good six months. Hopefully we won't have to wait that long for a PC version of Dragonborn.
