2006-04-28 - Third official mod reviewed Options

[Alexander]

Well, the third official mod, the Wizards Tower is out, and has been bought by quite a few people as we understand. We took the time to purchase this ourselves and inside the article you can read what we (I) thought of it.


Review: Wizards Tower

[HyPN0]

Rane,
You probably will see this as a cheat mod.
You have both enchanting altar,and spellmaking altar in the tower.But i don't consider that much of a cheat.

If you ask me,it's stupid of Bethesda to limit the players they must join the Arcane University to enchant their items.I mean enchanting is more useful for a warrior (a nice enchanted claymore,better protection armor etc.)than to a mage (enchant robes and hood).

I'm presonaly anoyed with the enchanting system itself.You can now more easyly get a 100% Chameleon and become an absolute god,than for example in Morrowind.But that's another story.

So i probably support the Enchanting Altars included in the mod.Enchanting should be a posibility for any character,not just mages.I also think that enchanting prices and shoul raise a lot ,and values lower a lot to balance the game.But,oh well.

I think that Wizard's Tower is definalty an improvment considering the quality of Horse Armor or Orrery.This time it actualy has a purpose (Horse Armor is just a nice lokkig trinket,same goes with Orrery).But i also agree with Alex that it could be better decorated,and that raining on top of the tower is so damn anoying (Tip:There is an unofficial fix for that little problem).
