The new area that Blackwood opens into is the Leyawiin, an Imperial City.
For Blackwood, these special events come in the form of Oblivion portals, which is fitting with the Deadlands being a major focus. They are pretty straightforward, acting as additional challenges to gain XP and earn loot. These world events operate similarly to the Abyssal Geysers from the Summerset DLC and all previous additions throughout each expansion's release. For our hands-on preview, I was able to take on the new story and the new world events as well. In true expansion format, the next step for The Elder Scrolls Online will release in waves, including new chapters, PvE instances, and more. It also offers new dungeons, side quests, bosses, and other miscellaneous additions to the newly added zone. Returning to Tamriel for this new chapter, Blackwood has around 30 hours of new narrative content to explore. Knowing that, I was eager to learn more about the companions within Blackwood and I couldn't wait to get started on this new expansion. Even better? Creative Director Rich Lambert confirmed to me earlier this year that the addition of companions is to lay the groundwork for possible romance ahead. "Down the line, romance is definitely somewhere we want to get to," he told Game Informer. "We just want to make sure when we add it that we do it right." While The Elder Scrolls Online experience doesn't have that quite yet, Blackwood does introduce companions. The introduction of this type of feature in an RPG setting adds yet another layer of immersion to the story, especially for those like myself that thrive on building entire character sheets for their journeys. Since then, numerous expansions have been released, effectively building a wildly enjoyable Elder Scrolls experience. That trend of engaging content continues in Oblivion with the Blackwood expansion, set 800 years before the events of its single-player counterpart.Īs a massive RPG lover, one feature I enjoy is romance. The vanilla game seemingly took forever before the story kicked off, and even then, it struggled with pacing issues.
When The Elder Scrolls Online first released, the MMORPG was met with a very lukewarm reception.
