They seem like personalities of real people that you have known before at some point in your life. The inhabitants of Mania and Dementia are laugh-out-loud funny at times. Whomever created the script for the characters in this game did a brilliant job. On the Mania side, it is guarded by Golden Saints Dementia is guarded by Dark Seducers and they hate the Golden Saints. Mania is beautiful and filled with light while Dementia, is dark and ominous. The world is split into two sides: Mania and Dementia, each are mirror opposites of the other.
I have given nothing away so you can get the organic experience that you should have when playing any Elder Scrolls game.
I, from here find it hard to decide what to tell you next because there is so much to say, but have decided not to tell you anymore about the story. It is so vibrant and cheerful – yet ominous and deserted. My first impression was how beautiful it was. Of course, you have a conversation with Haskill, Sheogorath’s right hand man, and then you make your way into the Shivering Isles.
#HOW BIG WAS THE SHIVERING ISLES HOW TO#
Now that you know how to get there, here’s where it gets fun. You come in to find Haskill sitting at a desk in a small room. The guard will tell you something and then kills a guy who came out of the door, then you talk to him again and head on into the gateway. There on the island you’ll find a glowing blue gateway and a guard and some other guy standing out there.
You can’t fast travel there yet, so I just fast traveled to Bravil and set off on foot. And I am glad I did.Īfter you download Shivering Isles, you have to wait, sleep or wander around for 24 hours and your journal will update about a strange door opening up on a little island off the coast of Bravil in Nibean Bay. I purposely did not read anything about it so I could go into it with my own perspective. While I was not a big fan of Oblivion (I am a much bigger Morrowind fan, in case you care), I was a bit concerned about this new enormous, and I mean enormous, expansion. So I leaped at to chance to take on Shivering Isles as well. I wrote my first review ever here and started with Oblivion because of my true love romance with Elder Scrolls.
