The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard

Game is difficult to play and does not explain controls and what they actually do. You're gonna need to use the Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages aka UESP to beat Redguard, and you're gonna need to get used to manual saving and using the quicksave button very frequently. Because this game crashes all. the. time. Entering or leaving a building and looting unique items are the biggest culprits. There's no quality mods to fix all of this games problems efficiently because this game is just (sadly) not very well known. It causes suffering to complete The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard. But, I got used to the gameplay and liked the story a lot so I won't negative review.

The story is basically Algeria and France beef. Jk, the game story and lore elements are actually so interesting, if only Bethesda made an actual playable version of the game. I kept encountering issues, apparently the GOG version is better, but I don’t know, the game still has inherent issues. That’s too bad because I really like the characters and the story and the more pirate-like ambiance, it’s a very unique Elder Scrolls game.

REDGUARD IS BROKEN. DO NOT BUY EXPECTING A WORKING PRODUCT TES: Redguard is very different from the rest of the series so far. It is a 3rd person action adventure game, with no RPG elements. The story is amazing and is the ONLY reason I kept playing. The gameplay is just awful. Movement is sluggish, and there is a slight amount of delay between input and Cyrus moving or jumping, which really matters with all the parkour sections. Combat is just spamming basic attacks. Technically, there are different types of attacks, but they're all the same, and blocking just gets you caught in a loop until you decide to take a hit. My biggest complaint is: a couple of hours into the game you end up making every guard on the island hostile. So the ENTIRE rest of the game is just running from them and they are EVERYWHERE. Cannot recommend this game mainly because it is broken. Aside from that, it just has a lot of flaws.

I am a psychopath and enjoy this game.. just not the steam version, play it on GOG if you want to actually play this game. Cause on steam this game is a nightmare with crashes. "Five gold pieces!" -Cyrus

Completed the game after 15 hours of gameplay. The gameplay was a bit too rough at times—I had difficulties with the platforming sections since there was a considerable delay with keyboard inputs. The story was quite interesting, considering it is a spinoff game and not a mainline title. If you plan on buying this game on Steam, there is a well-written guide by SavageCabbage05 for installing 3DFX Glide and upgrading DOSBox to make it run more smoothly, as well as making it less prone to crashing.

This game is bogged down by so many crashes, jank controls, bad combat, slowdowns, and memory issues that you generally can't play it without removing or renaming...get this: one of the game's sound files. If you really want to play this game, do yourself a favor: the GOG version of this game is INCOMPARABLY more stable due to the fact it uses glide acceleration and cd quality files. It won't fix the game's combat mechanics but it'll fix almost everything else.

This is simply put as "That one weird Elder Scrolls game" and that honestly fits, It has a voiced protagonist that in my opinion was much better than Nate/Nora from Fallout 4, Its the only Elder Scrolls game with no Character Creation and no first person view besides the obvious Elder Scrolls: Castles & Elder Scrolls: Legends, Despite that it oddly works? I heavily enjoyed my time in Stros M'Kai, Its great for those who enjoy the lore, I found the combat to be kind of like Star Wars: Jedi Academy with much less polish, The directional attacks and such were fun and did add a bit more to combat then i was expecting. This honestly makes me wish Bethesda ventured outside the RPG spectrum all together, All in all Redguard makes me wish for other Elder Scrolls projects of any genre and type.

i really wanted to love this, but it relies on DOSBOX, and even if you update DOSBOX to the latest version, or try modified dosbox builds, it doesnt matter, It drops to 8-18fps and stays at 8-18fps depending which area you are in. i hate dosbox, if the game had direct3D/DirectX support then i could use dgvoodoo2 which would mean 1000fps and 1440x1080 integer scaling but nope. Bad PC port. Bethesda never does anything cool or good for gamers. They could have patched this game in a single afternoon over at bethesda
