If you enjoy the powers available as weapons within the Dishonored game but also enjoy a title Skyrim gameplay you are sure to enjoy this new mod called Gifts of the Outsider.
The Skyrim Mod Gifts of the Outsider has been created by Madrilous over on the Nexus mods website and merges the worlds of Skyrim and Dishonored together providing the powers of Bend Time, Void Gaze, Possession, Wind Blast, Devouring Swarm and Blink to use. Watch the video after the jump to see it in action.
Exploring the Powers
“What if the Outsider, a being beyond worlds, could traverse across these realities? Well this mod explores that idea by bringing the Outsider, the void and Corvos abilities to Skyrim. This mod adds the six signature abilities of Dishonored into Skyrim through a quest featuring fully voice acted Outsider. If you wish to add the spells without completing the quest then simply use the help command from the console menu. Use help “<spell name here>” to return the spell id. Then use player.addspell <spell id here> to add it.”
The mod introduces six unique abilities from Dishonored, each with its own distinct advantages and strategic uses. For instance, Bend Time allows players to slow down or completely stop time, giving them a significant edge in combat or stealth scenarios. Void Gaze enhances the player’s vision, enabling them to see through walls and detect hidden enemies or objects. Possession lets players take control of other characters or creatures, providing a unique way to navigate through challenging areas or bypass enemies. Wind Blast unleashes a powerful gust of wind to knock back foes, while Devouring Swarm summons a horde of rats to attack enemies. Lastly, Blink offers a short-range teleportation ability, perfect for quick escapes or reaching otherwise inaccessible areas.
Integration and Gameplay
The integration of these powers into Skyrim’s gameplay is seamless, thanks to the well-crafted questline that introduces them. Players will encounter the Outsider, a mysterious and enigmatic figure from the Dishonored universe, who will guide them through the process of acquiring these abilities. The quest is fully voice-acted, adding an extra layer of immersion and authenticity to the experience.
For those who prefer to dive straight into the action without completing the quest, the mod provides an alternative method to acquire the spells. By using the console menu, players can easily add the desired spells to their repertoire. This flexibility ensures that both quest enthusiasts and action-oriented players can enjoy the mod to its fullest.
The mod’s creator, Madrilous, has paid meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that the powers not only function well within Skyrim’s mechanics but also feel true to their Dishonored origins. The animations, sound effects, and overall execution of the abilities are top-notch, making the mod a must-have for fans of both games.
