I need help on a decision: Dawnguard or Dragonborn?

I can only afford to buy one, and I'm not patient enough to wait for one to go on sale. I've heard an equal amount of good and bad things about both expansions, and I can't seem to come to a conclusion myself.

So what is your favorite expansion out of the two? I figured that it would be easier to decide what to buy based off of the popular opinion :p

dawngaurd + hearthfire

dragonborn lets you go to an entirely new island, but doesnt have a great story and the story is short.

dawnguard adds crossbows, adds a point to being a werewolf or vampire, and adds a better storyline than dragonborn

its really up to you though

Your fun will last longer with Dragonborn. Play Falskaar when you get bored of it and are waiting for your money for Dawnguard.

To be honest if I had the money I'd just buy one for you so you don't need to decide. Lol.

I hate the werewolf thing in Dawnguard. Whats the loving point?

hearthfire

i heard hearthfire is really glitchy

so there isnt a massive op curve between vampires and werewolves

Doesn't dawnguard also add dragon-bone weapons?
I'm trying to decide between dawnguard and dragonborn too :C

dragonborn is set in the same place as morrowind bloodmoon addon

i haven't played dragonborn yet but I have both and can say that dawnguard is pretty fun, but once you finish the quest chain there's nothing new to explore, with dragonborn you have a whole new island.
personally i think you should get dawnguard, just because it was the first of the two to come out.

Play Falskaar when you get bored of it

this is actually an interesting looking expansion mod, I'm downloading it now. It seems like a good free alternative to buying dawnguard/dragonborn
