The Elder Scrolls IV: Knights of the Nine Reviews
But other quests add hours of Monster killing action. Some of the quests don't really do more than give you more than another place to stay or store your stuff, but they're still cool. This add-on is indeed terrific fun. There are so many more facets to the World of Oblivion to explore, and this is simply one of them. It was worth the money, especially here on Amazon. The quests herein blend wonderfully with the usual Oblivion Quests.
After switching from Desktop to Laptop, having some installation/activation issues and getting a new hard drive, it was going to be impossible for me to activate the DLC's I already owned, so I instead opted to simply buy this CD. I definitely don't regret it. I would recommend anyone considering downloading the addons to Oblivion to instead simply buy this discthere is none of the hassle of Bethesda's registering processwhich doesn't work on many computers without tweaking, and which doesn't work on Windows Vista at all. There are a few subtle gameplay tweaks (such as the Spell Tomes), while others are great quest addons (such as Mehrune's Razor), and the Knights of the Nine itself is a wonderful added faction with a compelling storyline. The Knights of the Nine CD collection is an excellent addition to anyone's Oblivion game. There is also no restriction for installing or reinstalling this software as many times as you like on your computer, which is a great bonus for me.
It adds only a few hours of game play, but is interesting and somewhat fresh. This is an add-on to Oblivion. I paid full price when it first came out though, so wish I would have waited for discount. Other than that, if you are a fan of Oblivion, this is a must have.
I particularly like the world of Tamriel and didn't much care for leaving to go to Shivering Isle to pursue the quests in the other expansion pack. Not a terribly deep expansion pack, but I picked it up for $9 and got a few good hours of fun out of it. It would have been nice to encounter tougher enemies and more weapons, spells and armor, at least for variety's sake. The good thing about Knights of the Nine is that it keeps you in the Oblivion world you are familiar with. I slaughtered my horse ages ago. Knights should have given us far more armor and weapons. Ultimately, it is still a pleasure to play. Who needs it when you can teleport everywhere.
I would recommend it. I'm at level 35, so I can pretty much run around stark naked and just blast NPCs with spells. The new selection of items to acquire really isn't anything greater than what was already in play. So, the horse armor looks cool, but it's basically useless because horses are useless in the game.
Not sure that is worth it except if you like the graphic apearance. I haven't gone through the Knights of the Nine portion yet. I decided to get the combination with all the downloads because from Amazon it was cheaper than getting direct from their website. Some of the add-on's are pretty hokey like the horse armor. That will wait for a later point in the game as it is its own quest on top of the ones you get in the game. That is a must for anyone playing a spellcaster of any sort. I love the wizards tower.
