If you've been to Oblivion, have to see what's shakin' in the Shivering Isles.
Top notch expansion to an already top notch game.
All the good things that were said about Oblivion's gameplay are identical here. New places, faces, and enemy races.
It's kinda sorta crazy ... but... at times it's a tad too coherent. It's a little Alice in Wonderland and a little Middle Earth. Suppose it could have been a lot more insane for a realm of insanity. There's a handful of disoriented individuals and a some nice contrasting visuals. It's a very whimsical insanity rather than stark raving psycho or mind bending vertigo.
The concept is pretty interesting. The story draws one in.
They advertise that it's the quarter of the size of tamriel. It probably is. It's worth playing if only to extend the life of Oblivion. Could have been a tad better here and there, but it's pretty consistent with the way Oblivion was.
Yeah... that... about... sums it up.
