THE SHIVERING ISLES REVIEW PLUS
Plus with the Game of the Year edition there is no excuse to check this one out. Or if you have done everything to be done on your old save. Pick this one up if you are craving some Oblivion but sick of doing the same quests from character to character. Bethesda took advantage of being in a mad god's universe and from the visuals, spells and even the overall mood, you feel like you are in a totally new plane of existence.ĥ/5 Stars. This expansion breathes new life into the universe and there is never a dull moment. Personally I found Oblivion to be a little bland and repetative towards the end of the game after gaining all the guild achievements and completing the main storyline. This expansion is packed to the brim with content, new quests, gear, spells, enemies.everything! It could easily be its own game with 30+ hours of content. Your quest in the Shivering Isles is to save the realm from an impending apocalypse and along the way become Sheogorath's replacement. Clouds don't smell, they taste of butter. well whichever it was it began to smell.Ahah! must have been clowns. Here's a quote: "I once dug a pit and filled it with clouds.or was it clowns.

Shivering Isles takes you into the worlds of Mania and Dementia ruled by the hilariously insane Sheogorath. The Shivering Isles is a fantastic expand on the original Oblivion universe. A little lacking in some areas but a great game for those who can't get enough Oblivion.

Overall, the only major expansion pack to come for Oblivion is a good solid experience. There are a few combat orientated quests but not enough to counteract the rest of the boring side-quests. Another problem is that the side quests seem a littl e thin, they are mostly collection quests, or the few others are talking-type quests. You are forced to travel alone no horse or pig in sight. Now that would be fine if you were given another ride whilst in there some kind of crazy pig-like thing would be hilarious. Yes that's right your beloved steed wait by the gate for your return. If there is one major gripe in the Shivering Isles, it's that there is no way to take your horse into the new realm.

But they can be incedibly challenging to beat especially on the higher levels, There are some creatures that even when you kill them they may just get you from beyond the grave. But none of the other creatures in Cyrodiil do either so not much to complain about there. The new enemies in the DLC are a little bit boring, they don't have a lot of different animations or attacks.
THE SHIVERING ISLES REVIEW UPGRADE
Whether you want to spend your days in the bright and happy sunshines-ville that is Mania or the doom and gloom Dementia you wil be blown away by the gameworldĪs for gameplay, nothing much has changed, it's still the complex and rewarding system of constantly looking for new weapons and spells that upgrade your stats or do just that little bit more damage so that you can beat that troublesome quest. Its richness and attention to detail is stunning. The world and landscape is incredibly beautifull. Sheogorath is amazingly zany and hilarious, You'll find yourself looking forward to finishing every quest for him as nearly every thing he says is funny. They all have their own story and way of doing things. I mean EVERY SINGLE NPC in the Shivering Isles. And I don't just mean all the story character. The game starts off with you hearing about a strange door in Niben Bay and the tale that unfolds from there is amazing. And rightfully so, in-depth story and intriguing characters, along with an amazingly detailed world and lore. The Elder Scrolls games are a favourite among RPG game fans.
