Hey, everyone! This video was devised and put together by yours truly. I also provided the commentary you hear throughout. I must say how much of an absolute joy this was to work on. It’s the most fun I’ve had with a project in some time. I feel like I’ve become very well acquainted with each of the players as I weaved all of their narratives together. Kyle, Mikael, and Ben (the noobs) were all excellent sports throughout. Hollie was endlessly entertaining, and I’m very sorry to say that many of her inebriated antics will never see the light of day. You can use your imagination, though. Josh was fun to just watch, even though his video quality was the worst of the bunch by far (I did my best with what I had, I assure you). Finally, Frank has never been anything less than a consummate professional in the time I’ve known him. He is, in fact, not a cheater. So he claims, anyway… I want to send massive thanks to these six individuals for allowing me to humiliate them in various ways for the pleasure of strangers on the internet. They're all champions, in my book. Thanks so much for watching! And if you like the sound of my voice, check out my channel to hear more of it.
This is top of the line content. As someone with thousands of hours in both DOS and Unity daggerfall, seeing all the Daggerfall newbie-isms in action and the actual devs of the game themselves being absolutely no help beyond "i don't remember lol good luck" is comedy gold. Kudos to everyone involved especially Double Negative for putting this together so brilliantly (and somehow coherently in spite of the alcohol infused chaos).
Daggerfall is such an amazing game. So ahead of its time. It's the only game I've ever played that made me feel like I was just another person living in a fantasy world instead of being the center of the universe. I love that the game can be cruel and merciless but also so goddamn satisfying once you come to terms with its archaic game mechanics. And Eric Heberling is a great composer! I regularly listen to Arena/Daggerfall OSTs as well as the OST for Death Gate. All in all I'm super hyped for TWR but I'll happily wait another decade for it to come out since I can just keep making new characters in Morrowind and Daggerfall in the mean time!
Well, i wouldn't say it's amazing. It's a decent dungeon delving video game but the dungeons are way to damn random making many of them unplayable on the first time. Many times i had to close the game, sit it out for a day and then start it up again after i had clearer thoughts, one forced me to use cheat codes to find my objective, a child, which was situated under water protected by an enemy that would have killed me in a single shot. My reward was 71 gold after 6 hours spend inside a dungeon. You could do main quest but I've never touched it personally. It's a decent game.
@@nurgleschosen8145 You got to level your skills properly. Teleport is a great friend. And you can place notes on the map to help you. Always go to corners first. This way you know overall how far into the maze you are. Stick to extreme left or extreme right and keep going all the way on the edge till you explore all of the outer rim of the dungeon. Then work you way in from there. Placing notes on the map screen can help you identify where you already explored. So place those notes to remind you of spots that are safe or cleared. Type in names of the are if you have to. Eg. "1st floor room 01" "hallway 01" " basement room 10" etc you get the idea. By labeling everything you don't need to worry about getting lost.
The fact that In this game you could literally Fly over towns hurling fireballs at everything and have an Incresed Speed Spell to move at match 3 while your at it, amongst other things. its insane. Until this day there has not been a single title out there that made Magical Resources feel so powerfull, in my opinion.
Morrowind had some broken magical cheese. If you check out a speedrun they do similar to what you describe. In most pre 2000's rpgs, magic ends up being the most broken thing to abuse in multiple game systems.
I love how casual the video and people in team are, no worry about "company reputation" or anything like that. Also thanks for subtitles, for some reason I always turn them on.
Man this was fun! I would love to see a stream with all ex Daggerfall devs playing it and highlighting some things of interest. Like, some anecdotes and what things do still work great? What were rough spots you guys (always) had issues with and hope to improve. And what systems can we expect a evolution on in these days, what would be majorly improved?
It's a great idea. Kind of how Valve does it with their in-game dev commentary, except here the devs will have to recollect memories from 20 years ago lol.
@@Jinars. with the game they're working on being a spiritual successor to Daggerfall I think they have to, hahaha. I wanna know how they envision the evolution of that formula and how they see (through a current day lens) what's still awesome about Daggerfall. To me it's the feeling of endless potential, the looming sense of dangerous and exciting adventure - anything could happen, the lore - both given by the devs and the bits you kinda fill in yourself. To note just a few things.
@@OnceLostGames Pickpocketing rats should be put into more depth. Yes Rats have no pockets to pick but inside their bung hole is where you might find a key or something. Daggerfall let you do this but it didn't have much depth to it. When I see a giant rat and want to practice pickpocketing, there should be rat-related items like dead people's jewlry in its gut. That would be uncomfortable to pickpocket while the rat is alive but the furry community would go for it.
They probably wouldn't get much further than the rest of these guys, both Ted and Julian were in this video basically saying "I don't remember any of this lol good luck" and that's as much help as they could be haha
@@queuedjar4578 Sounds like the exact opposite of John Romero playing through Doom. He still remembers a lot of the ins and outs of the engine. Granted he is still making maps in Doom.
You're too scared to get nugg to run it. He's too powerful for this dungeon and you don't want him to embarrass the others when he inevitably annihilates it with his raw gaming skill.
Y'all with your min/maxing. Let's see some themed challenge runs! My last Privateer's Hold escape: "Cunning Linguist" 8HP/lvl Str40, Int60, Wil50, Agi45, End45, Per60, Spd45, Luc55 Primary: Etiquette, Mercantile, Streetwise Major: Daedric, Impish, Orcish Minor: Centaurian, Dragonish, Giantish, Harpy, Nymph, Spriggan Advantages: Int in spell points, Bonus to Hit (all) Disadvantages: no plate, no tower shields (I justify the bonus to hit because she's good with her hands, not just her mouth.)
I think that guy was placed there to teach players "some of these dudes are simply immune to some of your attacks, plan your battles carefully", but probably should have either locked him in one of the cages to make it more managable, or do something like scale the imp's damage WAY down to easier communicate that message other than one shotting everyone's carefully crafted build that they just happened to forget to save with.
Got to admit that game has incredible replay value. Not only because of the variety of playstyles, choices and the open world, the very gameplay is incredible, going back to the endless dungeons for loot and massacre never gets old. Spent so much time dying in them when I was a student that they feel like home.
The MULTIPLE imp shit tests in that dungeon is a blast, but even for the non-pugilistically gifted among us, one or two lucky rolls of the shock spell you start with can be your savior! Oft I struggle more with the skeleton..
You don't know how excited I am for this game. Daggerfall is the one game where I feek like it's an actual RPG unlike other games. Making a character with a cool backstory, unique motives, strengths and weaknesses, goals is what I love so much about daggerfall. Being able to go anywhere in the huge world and make my own store is so unique, even if the world is essentially the same, everyone is gonna have a different story. I just started a new playthrough today, had another strength based character who got really well known by the knightly order. For thjs character, I pretended it wasn't even in the timeline of daggerfall, but many years before as I didn't do the main quest. Due to all of that and being well known, he was called to the Imperial Capitol to work for the blades, he trained really hard. Eventually he was sent back to daggerfall but an unfortunate accident happened by a wizard which caused him to swap bodies. Now the character is stuck inside a female thief, no body to go back to as her (originally his) died inside the storm. Stuck back on daggerfall, fresh with no one knowing she was the knight that all the land knew. Stories like these are why I love dagger fall, I'm really looking forward to making more stories like this in wayward realms. I just have 1 request If there are dogs, LET US PET THEM!
That is an amazing character story, and stories like that is why we are not doing a traditional main quest. We really want each character to have their own tale and experience new things based on who they are. Of course there are over aching narratives but we want you to decide how you interact with them.
awesome. I wanna see more challenges like this. more of Daggerfall, maybe some Dungeon Keeper or Might and Magic VI. ooooh Master of Orion 1 or 2. or the classic, maybe doing the first sewers in Ultima VI.
I'm currently trying Daggerfall Unity and I must say, if you managed to pull this off back in 1996 I can't even imagine how cool a new version of it would be!
@@gm2407 In the context of the manual, he was saying that anything where you could continue playing without loading a save(except maybe denying a main quest quest?), you should continue on without loading a save. It's a pretty bad idea in daggerfall though, especially with all the crashes and bugs.
A suggestion for a part 2. A. Each player uses the same mods so they have an equal chance. No cheaters allowed. B. Each player has to clear the entire starter dungeon with an identicle character that has magic and fighting abilities. This way they learn all the basics of how to play the game. C. Each player then chooses a unique build so that each player can provide a different presentation on the same challenge. No Custom Classes. D. Each player then takes on an enormous difficult dungeon that they have to clear out on a time trial. Leaving to a nearby city for repairs and buying new weapons allowed.
I just took it for granted that everyone working on this would have already played Daggerfall. Of course, the real easiest part is the really late game when you are overleveled for everywhere. 😉
man, daggerfall, in no other game did i spend more time shopping for just the right clothes and visiting temples and guilds... and in no other game do i still remember as fondly dying in those procedural dungeons
This is the most accurate Daggerfall Let's Play I've seen. Die to imp, die while thinking about boobies, don't die and the game crashes. Now that you've all played this game, you know what to put into the Wayward Realms.
I loved daggerfall when even though it was a buggy mess and was grateful for the unity project which made the game more accessible and polished. I can't wait for its spiritual successor I know it going to be good. Great video!
Word of advice to noobs having trouble with the starter dungeon. Put your character near a ceiling (preferably just under where a door goes) and hold the jump button down. Go to sleep and you will wake up with higher jump skill. Do the same with running. Run around in circles to practice running. Go to sleep and you will have increased running skill. Keep doing this until you are able to outrun most monsters. This will now give you a way to back out of any fight you are losing and run to a nice safe spot on the map to rest your character to heal up. Save often, and see if you can sneak up on an enemy by going into sneak mode to get a cheap hit on an enemy's back that will do critical damage. If not, then run. You will probably be better waiting for enemy to come to you and then you strike AS they approach so that they walk into your punches or slashes. Since there is virtually no AI to enemies they walk towards you like the terminator and you can just punch them in the face as they walk into the attack. Having high running speed lets you out-manuever them. To boost your sneaking skill keep sneaking around and see if that helps. Being good at sneaking makes it harder for enemies to detect you. If they are harder to detect you, more options open up for you to run and hide so you can rest to heal. Noisy people that don't sneak will have harder time to rest since the game doesn't let you rest unless there are no enemies near by. My advice to noob is be a redguard warrior since Redguard have naturally good athleticism (quick feet) and this matters because you want to run out of the dungeon. Take every encounter slow. Only run after you are detected. Because there is a chance to get that critical hit in if their back is turned to you.
Imps in Daggerfall can be damaged by any weapon higher quality than Silver, magic, themselves if you get them close to a wall and they splash damage themselves, and also for some reason your fists. If you have Daggerfall infighting, having 2 rats and a bat gang up on it also works.
Well that was fun! I often wonder what you all were thinking when you made that 'tutorial' dungeon. The imp in particular is so rough! Even if you got a silver weapon during character creation, you might get unlucky with your RNG and get zotted. It's immune to normal weapons, but it looks like not punches and kicks? That's interesting. The rest is challenging too, and not particularly educational I think. Even if you reach the exit of the dungeon, there are actually many optional paths too! I know a lot of the dungeons were procedurally generated, but was that one? I also know that the procgen wasn't perfect, and so there are 'leaks' where you can get outside of the world in many dungeons. ^.^;;
yep that decision in character creation that gets you a silver weapon makes the difference in the tutorial because I don't think you can find one before the imp
A starter area that could be considered a game in its own right. the way to go, I believe. shame so few did. At least not on the same scale. (Privateer's Hold is, what, 1 percent of the full gameworld? :) )
just a bunch of cool people playing a masterpiece that's how gaming industry should be! this was waay more impactful and enjoyable than those hypocrites screaming festivals
Having watched John Romero play through Doom, I will say, well, this is not that type of video.... Granted John has a good memory and he knows the ins and outs of the Doom engine.
I was just watching some videos on daggerfall and found out about your studio! I didn't play daggerfall back in the day, but it has all the mechanics that I've personally always felt the newer elder scrolls games have been missing. Very excited to hear about your project!
Glad to have you following along! If you are interested, we highly recommend playing Daggerfall Unity, which ports Daggerfall into the unity engine, fixes the bugs, adds a bunch of quality of life improvements, and already has a ton of mods so you can customize your gameplay experience. It will give you a great idea of what to expect from WR.
PS5/XBX are basically today's mid range pc's so if Wayward Realms can run good on middle grade pc's there is a chance. The only problems I can see are either UI or control problems if keybinds are anything like Daggerfall's control scheme.

Cpt. Aldmerica is so clever
Word of advice to noobs having trouble with the starter dungeon. Put your character near a ceiling (preferably just under where a door goes) and hold the jump button down. Go to sleep and you will wake up with higher jump skill.
Do the same with running. Run around in circles to practice running. Go to sleep and you will have increased running skill. Keep doing this until you are able to outrun most monsters. This will now give you a way to back out of any fight you are losing and run to a nice safe spot on the map to rest your character to heal up. Save often, and see if you can sneak up on an enemy by going into sneak mode to get a cheap hit on an enemy's back that will do critical damage. If not, then run. You will probably be better waiting for enemy to come to you and then you strike AS they approach so that they walk into your punches or slashes. Since there is virtually no AI to enemies they walk towards you like the terminator and you can just punch them in the face as they walk into the attack. Having high running speed lets you out-manuever them. To boost your sneaking skill keep sneaking around and see if that helps. Being good at sneaking makes it harder for enemies to detect you. If they are harder to detect you, more options open up for you to run and hide so you can rest to heal. Noisy people that don't sneak will have harder time to rest since the game doesn't let you rest unless there are no enemies near by. My advice to noob is be a redguard warrior since Redguard have naturally good athleticism (quick feet) and this matters because you want to run out of the dungeon. Take every encounter slow. Only run after you are detected. Because there is a chance to get that critical hit in if their back is turned to you.
I'm looking forward to the first door in Wayward Realms.
Seriously? Thats how you kill the imps. I always just avoided them at all costs. This is the most useful information I've learned in a while.
You're welcome! 😁
Imps in Daggerfall can be damaged by any weapon higher quality than Silver, magic, themselves if you get them close to a wall and they splash damage themselves, and also for some reason your fists. If you have Daggerfall infighting, having 2 rats and a bat gang up on it also works.
Always take the ebony dagger.
VEEEENGEEEENCEEE
Well that was fun! I often wonder what you all were thinking when you made that 'tutorial' dungeon. The imp in particular is so rough! Even if you got a silver weapon during character creation, you might get unlucky with your RNG and get zotted. It's immune to normal weapons, but it looks like not punches and kicks? That's interesting. The rest is challenging too, and not particularly educational I think. Even if you reach the exit of the dungeon, there are actually many optional paths too!
I know a lot of the dungeons were procedurally generated, but was that one? I also know that the procgen wasn't perfect, and so there are 'leaks' where you can get outside of the world in many dungeons. ^.^;;
yep that decision in character creation that gets you a silver weapon makes the difference in the tutorial because I don't think you can find one before the imp
With the amount of drinking going on down there, will this game ever be completed?
It will get done, but you might need to be drunk to understand the control scheme. 😛
I'd love to have Daggerfall on console with cross save with the PC version.
"Captain Aldmerica" Im done.
A starter area that could be considered a game in its own right. the way to go, I believe. shame so few did. At least not on the same scale. (Privateer's Hold is, what, 1 percent of the full gameworld? :) )
just a bunch of cool people playing a masterpiece
that's how gaming industry should be!
this was waay more impactful and enjoyable than those hypocrites screaming festivals
HALT!
HALT HALT HALT HALT
This was super funny. :)
Having watched John Romero play through Doom, I will say, well, this is not that type of video.... Granted John has a good memory and he knows the ins and outs of the Doom engine.
So much fun
It was definitely a blast!
Prediction, The skeleton is gonna wreck the newbies 😂
If they want to create a spiritual successor to Daggerfall, they should play it.
That's why we played it!
Yes, but not only the first dungeon, the rest of the game is important.
I was just watching some videos on daggerfall and found out about your studio! I didn't play daggerfall back in the day, but it has all the mechanics that I've personally always felt the newer elder scrolls games have been missing. Very excited to hear about your project!
Glad to have you following along! If you are interested, we highly recommend playing Daggerfall Unity, which ports Daggerfall into the unity engine, fixes the bugs, adds a bunch of quality of life improvements, and already has a ton of mods so you can customize your gameplay experience.
It will give you a great idea of what to expect from WR.
long live Captain Aldmerica!
Daggerfall is easily in my top 10 games of all time. Love seeing new players suffer
This is gold.
None may know of this Meeting...
Ive never had less faith your game is gonna come out good
Sorry to hear.
reminds me of a japanese game show reaction
I thought the original devs of Daggerfall would actually know how to play Daggerfall...
Well the folks playing are new to Daggerfall. Though Ted and Julian haven't really played the game in a long time.
Looking intensely at rat :)
It's a little gloomy in there so you really want to make sure you get a good look just to be sure.
Will wayward realms ever come to ps5 or Xbox series X?
PS5/XBX are basically today's mid range pc's so if Wayward Realms can run good on middle grade pc's there is a chance. The only problems I can see are either UI or control problems if keybinds are anything like Daggerfall's control scheme.
Our focus for now is PC but we would love to bring it to consoles.

@@queuedjar4578 thanks for the information .
lol poor sobs... only ebony can save you.

Kinda uncool that you didn't give a shout out to Daggerfall Unity
Yea, we forgot to mention it on here, but we have given shout outs to Daggerfall Unity on several occasions.
Comment for the Algorithm
Thanks! 😁
They should do all sorts of other RPG tutorials. Get a taste of the genre beyond just one game.
There a certain clip that makes me loose hope in this new game they are creating. say no more.
Ludex Gundyr wasn't as hard first time))
👍🏾👍🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
hopefully no one was using gog lol
Hollie's chemical dependency is best girl.
