Those who have ever been in the measurement of Sheogorath, has not returned to the same. Prolonged contact with the NPC and the appearance of new locations can cause a phase shift in a particularly impressionable players and to restore an adequate perception of the environment will take time. World of SI, actually, we got absolutely insane. But joking aside, because we face a full-scale and large-very big expansion pack to the best role-playing game of last year.

medical orderlies called?

Unlike the Knights of the 9 in the SI you do not have to scour the city itself Cyrodiil in search of a quest, opening a new storyline. All you need to install add-on and start the game. Soon you will see a message that it is rumored that one of the islands to the east of Bravil appeared strange portal. Arriving at a specified location on the map, we see the arch, glowing purple. Good lad (under two feet tall, in full armor and with dvuruchnikom in his hands), standing nearby, gives us some good advice: do get out of here soon. And then he jumps out of the portal strange Dunmer. Elf muttered something incoherent and rushed at us with guns. Well, it seems, expected something interesting. Calm down (forever) possessed a resident of Morrowind, we’re getting inside the arch, and everything starts to become clear.

manicured kind tipchik named Haskill-farming invites us to sit down across from him. “Welcome to the Prince of Madness, Sheogorath measurement – says a man. We have an urgent need to champion.” As you might guess, they do not need any Beckham or Valuev (although the latter could come in handy), and the guy or girl that can solve the problems of the world of Sheogorath. For more information about employment in the position of savior-deliverer Haskill sends us straight to the office of the authorities. That is, the palace crazy Daedra.

House number 6

Because sane people (except us) in the kingdom of the Prince of Madness can not be, by definition, not surprisingly, the quests will be relevant. For example, it is possible to seek a suitable place for the night of the inhabitants of New Sheota – sheogoratova capital measurement. Nothing strange is not it? The fact that a citizen can not easily fall asleep in any place where there is … walls or statues. The guy is afraid of the likely collapse of a stone statue, which his firm conviction, could collapse entirely on his sore head. A bad case. Traveling along winding paths and underground SI, you will find a lot of abnormal characters: kleptomania, psychos, mad prophets, enthusiasts Skooma (local analog of hard drugs), and all sorts of paranoid people with the most inconceivable phobias. And all these people can “reward” you the relevant quests. In general, the order of loonies are classical tasks such as “bring convergence” or “kill, pliz.” However, the story quests were more interesting side. In one of them you will have the case end with a group of pesky adventurers, without an invitation who went to the measurement of Sheogorath. You can do this in two ways. The first – the most obvious. With the help of a special button called the crowd of monsters, which are straightened with the trio of treasure hunters. But the second – much more interesting. Why just kill the trio of heroes, if each of them can light with your mind? Archer from the party lost his mind at the sight of the monster, which grows right before your eyes to incredible proportions. Greedy sorcerer to become blue in the face rake thousands windfall key to finding the right to lock the cage with countless treasures. And considers himself invincible orc svihnetsya in the form of its own ghost, which will make him think that he was killed. So, funny story with fiery dogs of the village BoarderWatch in vanilla Oblivion was nothing more than a warm-up compared to what we will be up in the SI.

There on unknown paths …

SI, perhaps – the strangest place that ever attended a seasoned rolevikov. Compare it can only be Planescape campaign setting of D & ampD. But if “Planshkaf” was clearly structured borough of the universe (the top plan, bottom, etc.), the native home of Sheogorath chaos reigns. While some of what structure there still is.

SI consists of two dimensions – Mania and Dementia. After killing the guards near the Gates of Madness in early addon, you are given a choice as to which of them you spend most of the playing time. Mania – a bright, saturated colors of the world. One glance at it may seem, what they were doing it in a state of euphoria. Giant mushrooms, crimson sky and bizarre plants … The impression is that location created by developers with the participation of psychiatric patients. The opposite of “Obsession” was the measurement of Dementia. Dark dark world, where many swamps and gigantic trees, whose roots form an impassable maze. The most desperate paranoid claim that a better residence than Dementia, you will not find.

Despite the fact that the main bosses in SI on the right is Sheogorath, both dimensions are controlled by two different party crazies. With all the ensuing quest, which can be obtained from the “representatives” Mania and Dementia. However, the storyline is made up of orders of the Prince of Madness.

Traces unseen animals

Unlike the locals, straight from the tin menagerie does not shine with originality. Vkakoy RPG we have not seen the giant insects, reptiles, apes, bizarre walking skeletons and trees? Among the living simulators for training active can be identified unless the heartless (literally) of the Knights of Order that appear to be the result of the first experiment a young monster 3D-modeler. Still did not miss an occasion Bethesda surprise us with unusual creatures. So was the Sentinel, guarding the Gates of Madness. Literally before your eyes the giant effortlessly deal with the group of adventurers with a hefty blade. See this curious spectacle you can, if you look videoretsenziyu with our drive. Just as a blacksmith, made of amber brought you an excellent armor and magical items. From now on, not well-versed in crafting characters can entrust it to a glorious thing a professional. For a fee, and your materials are, of course.

When the developers promise to create something unusual and interesting, always refer to such promises with a touch of incredulity. And while movies from SI really left an impression of something unusual, they could not fully show how wonderful the world would be the Prince of Madness, in fact. Yes, and the developers certainly do not intend to hit us before the release. They wanted to teach us a surprise, and they succeeded. In fact, as you can wander through the standard fantasy worlds? How much you can surf the cosmic expanse and walk on distant planets?

The key to the game in the SI – do not move wisely. What is this guys in white coats? Hey, let me go, I have not finished the quest Sheogorath. Along with Napoleon finish? What is Napoleon? Are you crazy?
