THE EVIL MANSION

I’ve watched more than one friend play through the original Resident Evil thanks to the wonders of game livestreaming, but I’ve yet to ever touch it or any other game in the series personally. I approach horror games much like I approach a cold pool: One toe at a time, with a horrible grimace on my face, before I scamper away to find a chair in the sun because I’m quite happy out here actually, thank you.

Since Tamriel is undoubtedly one of my gaming happy places, it seems only right that I should experience firsthand as a giant mod. (which has versions for both and traditional ) is a recreation of the Spencer Mansion complete with traps, respawning undead enemies, and a whole host of puzzles. I may not often be up for true horror and jump scares, but this I knew I could do. I’s tutorial before boosting her up with a couple levels and skills via console commands and setting out for the mansion north of Morthal.
