Game designer Todd Howard has said that the five lumps of content released for 3 is probably 'enough', the team now looking towards Bethesda's next big release.

"I think we've put enough content out there for this game," said Howard, speaking to Kotaku. "About half the team goes on to the next big game. The other half, which is mostly a lot of artists and designers go on to DLC stuff."

Bethesda had apparently originally planned to release three new story chapters for the game - with five as a maximum.

"We knew we wanted to do three initially and we'll see where that goes. I kind of had in my mind that the upper limit was five. Part of that was what I think people are willing to continue to pay for a game. And a lot of that is our own internal bandwidth."
