The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard

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.

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)

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.

I was really surprised by TESA: Redguard, as it is sometimes frowned upon by TES fans, but I didn't bother with much of the content before because I wanted to play the game myself at some point. And i kinda liked it. The game feels like a real adventure: solving puzzles, navigating parkour passages, fighting enemies, and talking to quirky NPCs. It’s a mix between Monkey Island and Tomb Raider, with an engaging story and a world that while not huge offered plenty to explore for its time. The gameplay is varied, not strictly linear, and the puzzles can be quite tricky. NPCs are simple but unique and recognizable, with plenty of dialog options to guide you or flesh out the lore. Everything is voiced, though quality varies, some actors voice multiple characters and exaggerate certain quirks, which can be weird. Overall, the presentation feels a bit junky, but that gives it its own charm. But now to the negative points, starting with the inventory and the combat. The inventory is messy: every collected item stays, cluttering the screen, and managing it is inconvenient. Combat is also poorly executed. You only have one attack combo and moves like parrying and dodging are possible. It isn’t too difficult, but it rarely feels fun. Boss fights too, suffer from bugs, sometimes you can cheese them without taking damage. Although it wants to be like Tomb Raider, the game doesn't do it quite as well. The controls are imprecise, the camera unhelpful, and clipping issues often make jumps unreliable. Some Situations often turn into trial and error, with constant saving and reloading, not because of difficulty or skill issue but because of technical flaws. I can only recommend the game to fans who have always wanted to try out Redguard anyway and are interested in the story or would like to recapture the nostalgia, who are not put off by technical difficulties and shaddy controls, because the content of the game already has a certain charm.

Gem. It has a great narrator, beautiful music, great gameplay
