Redguard talk:Redguard

The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995

Not sure the Redguard bestiary page actually does list *all* the monsters in the game. The walk through mentions fighting demons, which are not listed.

Just been looking at this further, and apparently the two demons in question are both Vermai.

In addition to this there are two Daedra Guardians, of a unknown type in Vile's realm.

On a more mundane note, there are Rock spiders and Wall spiders which can be fought normally and Sharks and Giant tentacles, which can kill you. (But not be attacked back.)

[edit] Conflict

When it says its the second "adventure game", what does that make Daggerfall? Andorhal 13:33, 21 October 2007 (EDT)

Redguard was the second in a series called "The Elder Scrolls Adventures"; Daggerfall was called "Elder Scrolls II". It's Bethesda splitting hairs - not us! --Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 13:39, 21 October 2007 (EDT)

[edit] Availabilty

Does anyone know if this game is still available, let a alon available outside the U.S.? ^{—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 58.174.98.29 (talk • contribs).}

It's no longer sold by Beth, so to get it you have to go searching on Ebay, etc. There is a demo avaliable for download, though it needs emulating software to play (and I think the full game does aswell, if you're running it on XP and newer systems), which will set you back another $20 (though it's free if you don't mind a giant twirling logo covering your screen ;) ). ^{—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.97.112.11 (talk • contribs).}

I picked up a copy of the rebadged "Sold-Out" edition from an Amazon seller for £10 - in the UK, obviously. I've managed to get it running (without sound so far) on XP without spending any other money using the site's Installation guide. Looks like there are other copies available too. –Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 04:32, 12 January 2008 (EST)

Update: Do I need any special software to run the downloadalbe version? (I don't think that Redgaurd is still sold in Australia, so the downloadable version seems to be the way to go)

[edit] What's wrong with this wiki

This wiki is so damn hard to navigate! When I type in "Redguard" and hit go it automatically assumes I am looking for the game and goes to the article about the game Redguard. What if I'm looking for the article about the race? This is not the only article that suffers from this problem. This entire wiki needs disambiguation pages. If "Redguard" does not redirect to a Redguard disambiguation page there should at least be a link to a disambiguation page or another page at the top of the article. Look at Wikipedia if you don't know what I mean. For example, let's say you go to wikipedia, and you type in "Bears" in the search bar and click Go. It goes to the article about the animal. But lets say you were not looking for information about the animal, but the Chicago Bears? Notice how there is a "for other uses" line with a link to a disambiguation page located conveniently at the top of the article?

Thanks for pointing out that problem. A redirect to this article was interfering with our site's standard navigation/search system; I have now deleted that redirect.

A major difference between our site and Wikipedia is that we are covering multiple games, organized into different namespaces. This choice was made explicitly to avoid having to create hundreds of disambiguation pages for every topic that appears in multiple games. Instead, each namespace is a distinct section of the site. Searches are set up to be game-sensitive. Therefore, if you are on an Oblivion page, "go Redguard" will take you to Oblivion:Redguard. It you are on a Morrowind page, "go Redguard" will take you to Morrowind:Redguard. We believe this is far more useful to readers than forcing readers to go through a disambiguation page every time they try to use the "go" feature. If you really want to see all of the possible pages named "Redguard", then do "search Redguard" instead of "go Redguard". This is all explained at Help:Searching.

Nevertheless, we are very aware of disambiguation pages and how to use them. As you can see at the (incomplete) list at Disambiguation Pages, the site contains quite a few disambiguation pages. Also, we are very aware of adding links to other possible uses of a word at the top of the page. For example, Morrowind:Shield or Oblivion:Blade. The only difference relative to Wikipedia is that we do not disambiguate between different namespaces. --Nephele^Talk 00:54, 1 April 2008 (EDT)
