Closer in line with Fallout 4's base building than a true expansion, it got mixed impressions in our Hearthfire review at the time. ◾ Hearthfire: The odd-one-out of the trio, this allowed players to build their own home in one of several pre-set locations, as well as the ability to adopt a child.
Dan Whitehead was mostly positive impression in his 7/10 Dawnguard review, saying: 'If all you want is a solid side quest and some good loot, this will scratch that itch.' It added new questlines, weapons - such as the crossbow - armours and perks, including skill trees for vampires and warewolves. ◾ Dawnguard: The debut expansion focused on vampires, giving players the choice to join them or hunt them down alongside the titular Dawnguard organisation.
