Description
The year is 864 and Tiber Septim has begun his crusade to establish an empire in Tamriel, conquering all who stand in his wake. Though the Redguards of Hammerfell put up a valiant fight, they eventually crumbled to internal mutiny and the might of the Septim forces. Now under Imperial control, the Redguards are kept in line by the oppressive rule of Septim’s retainer, Amiel Richton. It is within this setting that Cyrus, a Redguard mercenary that has travelled Tamriel for over a decade, begins his adventure. Investigating the disappearance of his sister, Iszara, Cyrus is brought back to Hammerfell and thrown into the political intrigue that besets Hammerfell and its inhabitants. In his search for his sister, he must also play his part in this war between the Crowns and the Forebears.

Set 400 years prior to the events of The Elder Scrolls: Arena, Redguard contrasts with the other games in many ways. As a third-person action-adventure game, it removes its RPG gloves and instead focuses on bringing you on an immersive journey through the eyes of Cyrus. If you’ve wanted to try the Elder Scrolls series, but haven’t quite enjoyed the RPG elements such as character building and customisation, this is definitely the game for you. But, despite taking a different path, this addition still contains many of the elements that the Elder Scrolls series is renowned for: a vast world, lore-laden narrative and compelling characters. So, whether you’re a native or a newcomer to Tamriel, this swashbuckling adventure will keep you captivated to the very end.
  • Thrilling adventure rich with lore, dialogue, backstory and atmosphere
  • Explore the Island of Stros M’kai, from the darkest catacombs to the highest towers
  • Non-linear story progression, allowing you to explore the world at your own pace
  • Put your wits to the test by solving puzzles and uncovering the mystery of Iszara’s disappearance

Interesting game, too many problems

The God-awful performance and the atrocious combat kills the experience for me. It does have a lot of interesting stuff that would be worth experiencing if it wasn't for those two points.

Performance is fine

Lots of reviews say that the performance is terrible, but at least on my computer, this game runs smoothly enough. My computer has a reasonably good CPU and is unremarkable otherwise, and I'm using onboard video. The frame rate could be better, but I don't have any problems playing, even during combat. The story is interesting and there's a fair amount of wandering the countryside, just like in other Elder Scrolls games. The controls take some getting used to and navigating tight spaces is tricky. Other than that, it's a lot of fun.

Awesome!

I know that on GOG the game might run slow on older computers. (Including new lower spec computers) My mid-range desktop can run it fine with a few lag spikes here and there. Note that this game is not really a RPG more of a 3rd person dueler thing. It is still a great game in the francise and I totaly recomend this game to any TES fan! Another note, This game has full voice over. (as far as I know)

Not properly playable

Tweaking the Dosbox configuration doesn't seem to do anything for me. From changing resolution to turning fullscreen on and off, the game seems to be set to certain settings which I am unable to change. Playing this on fullscreen on a full HD tv doesn't look too well, so not being able to change any settings is a real downer. Also the game is choppy, but again, as I don't seem to be able to change any settings, this is also an unfixable problem for me. Would not recommend buying this game in it's current state. I hope in the future GOG will be able to deliver a better version of this game.
