There are a lot of interesting theories and ideas here. However, one of the best (and most interesting) DLC's that Bethesda could release HANDS DOWN would be that which explores (and potentially answers) the enigmatic "disappearance" of the Dwemer - PERIOD. As much as every developer wants to keep their franchises fresh and "unique", the bottom line is that TES games are SWORDS & SORCERY fantasy games, period. Dwarves are (and always have been) a HUGE and intregral part of that genre, and exist in almost EVERY other fantasy work of literature, film, and game to date (The Lord of the Rings, D&D, The Everquest Universe, World of Warcraft, etc). Not having them around in TES games thus far has honestly, well. . . been kind of a let down. Some form of DLC that lets you travel back in time and witness first hand their culture in it's prime, or, (better yet), actually PLAY as a Dwarf would be beyond cool, and would honestly be the fresh "shot in the arm" that this franchise could benefit from. No - we DO NOT need to travel to/see/invade any more continents/regions of Tamriel (or anywhere else for that matter). That has been done a billion times already in this franchise, and has long grown stale and boring. More daedric realms/deities ??? I think not. Unless you want this franchise to sink into the quagmire of DLC "wash, rinse, repeat" repetition, releasing DLC that includes some HEAVY involvement with the Dwemer is exactly the fresh facelift this franchise needs. . . ..
