A new world, a new Lord, a new threat.
User Rating: 9.6 | The Elder Scrolls IV: Shivering Isles PC
Shivering Isles opens a new world to Oblivion. It has new quests, new people, new weapons and armor. New sites to see and has Oblivion has great graphics a beautiful scenery as well as great music and sounds within the world of the Shivering Isles. Unlike other expansions Shivering Isles it not continued after Oblivion finishes it is new component that is added into the game, into Oblivion. Shivering Isles adds about 8-10 more hours of game play if you follow the main quest. Shivering Isles doesn't follow the main story of Oblivion, as Shivering Isles is a new world it has a new threat and so a new main story. Seeing that I got Shivering Isles after I finished Oblivion I had no problem with going to the Shivering Isles right away and do the main quest, but with other players that haven't finished the main quest in Oblivion might be eager to travel to the Shivering Isles and see whats there, they might get caught up with Shivering Isles and completely forget about the main quest is Oblivion. It's not really a big problem but I think it would be better if you could only get to the Shivering Isles after you become champion of Cyrodil but like I said its not that big of a problem if people don't mind. It is a bit too easy and it doesn't have enough challenges and can get a little repetitive with the main quests so its a good idea to do some side quests during the main quests so that it doesn't get to repetitive. All in all Shivering Isles is a fantastic game and is worth buying if you liked Oblivion.
