@@renezc Tis a shame that PumpkinPoo is not a Khajit in this story then. Although, seeing how unforgiving every trial was, the playthrough may have been made even more arduous if he had chosen to go without the Ork’s racial ability.
There's something about really getting into the character you make in these games, stopping to "rest" in an inn even though your character never tires, drinking mead and listening to songs like all the NPCs. It's relaxing.
Maybe. 3 different times I tried survival mode and said "FUCK! THIS!" In less than an hour. A little immersiveness like a reminder to eat and drink and sleep, but without the game/immersion breaking penalties slamming down on you without warning, without stripping half your carry weight (weight has always been an issue to Bathesda games. For instance you're telling me a wooden ladle, a tankard, a plate, a grand soul gem, all weigh the same, 1/2 of a book, which is equal to a gold ingot, and 1/2 a human skull or 1/4 of a mammoth tusk?) Or making every arrow and every gold coin weigh 1/10th of a pound or 1/5 of that of a bowl of soup. And did I mention that glass armor has a higher insulation value than leather, fur or hide armor? And everything is cold... even though people living in that environment would be acclimated to said environment? Kinda like how people in Canada, Germany, Norway and Russia wear short sleeve or short skirts and shorts when there's snow out, but thing they're going to burn to death when it's 73F... meanwhile people in Tennessee thinks it's freezing at 50F and think 85F is "a nice warm summer day". I knew a guy in bootcamp that was from Puerto Rico, who had to be treated for hypothermia at 58F but didn't have much issue when it was so hot other recruits were having heat stroke. I feel they kinda fucked up with survival mode. Skipped past immersiveness entirely and made it more of a punishment for playing their game that they have done nothing to fix over the past 11 years.
Cold is kind of a busted mechanic. You go up a hill, fight some bandits, win, then die because the bandits were totally fine standing up there for weeks on end with no fire.
You can abuse Mercer Frey as a "follower", he's extremely aggressive and useful in survival mode. Do thieves guild first until you meet him at snow veil temple but do not finish the temple, instead, take Mercer outside he will follow you
You won’t have to let her go, Mercer isn’t your companion in this quest, just a follower (if that makes any sense), he’ll just follow you around but you can’t get him to do much else.
Me: I don’t know why everyone loves Mjoll so much Mjoll: *doesn’t complain every time you ask her to carry stuff* Me: … I know why everyone loves Mjoll so much
@@9895_ I’m certain there’s a mod for it, but I wish it was in the vanilla game too. I remember on one of my first characters i married Ysolda and regretted it, and I ended up pretending that he was having a secret gay affair with Farkus 😂
I can’t believe I haven’t discovered this channel until now. Your Skyrim content is absolutely priceless, man. And your editing style is underrated. I can tell you put a lot of love into each and every one of your videos. Please keep making Skyrim content, I love it! Godspeed.
I started my first survival mode run (and bumped the difficulty up) through not too long ago and the game feels so different. Kind of brings the whole feeling of playing Skyrim for the first time flooding back.
This information comes way too late, but at 17:55 you can actually get easily out of Dawnstar in Survival via boat thanks to the Dawnguard DLC if I recall correctly. The boats travel between Windhelm, Solitude and Dawnstar.
not really? he never upgraded from dwarven gear, never properly utilized enchanting, and apparently spent "hours" of his life leveling alchemy, got it all the way to 70, and yet is somehow struggling to earn 25k gold. how is that even possible, even without cheese alchemy is still a money printer. he has so little game knowledge its almost painful to watch at some points
Nah 🤣🤣🤣. That build is pretty dogshit, Sword and Shield is only 2nd worse to pure Destruction Magic, and he doesn't even use Conjuration. The ONLY thing he's got going for him is the fact that he plays as an Orc which is very very good even on Survival. If he didn't abuse potions he wouldn't be able to finish the game.
Happy I stumbled upon this video, likely because I’ve resurrected my obsession with Skyrim recently. Well made, well edited, very funny, hope your channel gets a lot of growth from this upload man. May PumpkinPoo’s legend carry on for the ages. ✌️
Legendary Survival Mode as a Vampire is just a nightmare during the day. You have to take note of all the extra Vampire conditionals and feel nothing but sheer terror when you see a fire mage.
As someone who plays on legendary survival quite regularly: Orc melee is actually *very* strong, mostly because sneaky archers can't one-shot most enemies until you are incredibly far into the game (exploits notwithstanding). Magic is incredibly weak because it doesn't scale well, but Impact can still stunlock dragons, which is very useful, of course.
Conjuration magic is actually incredible on Legendary, by far the best skill for pretty much any build, I run a Nord Paladin with Conjuration on Legendary Survival with no potions and it's a breeze. Illusion is good too for stealth characters, but pure Destruction is by far the worst build on Legendary.
@@MISTAKEWASMADE4liveAbsolutely ! Summons ignore the difficulty scaling completely, making them incredibly valuable on legendary difficulty. My statement was much too broad, I must admit.
The editing was very well done here. I loved following this story along. If you plan on continuing this save file, know that every item stored in the containers of Proudspire Manor will be gone when you upgrade the rooms.
This was hilarious, seriously! I enjoyed watching this and was giggling at some of the lines. Keep going! I like your sense of humor and editing style very much.
Re: "Was anyone else terrified of the House of Horrors quest when they were younger?" Me who is 27 rn: uhhh, sure... only when I was younger though hahaha... totally not NOW, still..... nope.
You got me into playing skyrim about a year or two ago. I just never wanted to give it a chance, called it bad and boring. But you made me change my perspective of it. You made it seem fun. So I gave it another chance and its now, probably my favorite game ive ever played to this day, and still play it all day long. Thank you!
13:34 No but for real unironically when I was younger (about 8 or 10 idk) I was playing skyrim and had like over 50 hours on this one character and had jenessa with me (legend, love her) and we were fighting the vigils in the hall and she was slain by one and I found her body after the fight and cried, literally started tearing up mourning this npc I had been adventuring with for my whole playthrough, I went into my mums bedroom and cried to her whining about how she died and my mum consolled me. Very sad times. So I really feel for this death.
I tried legendary once. My main experience where 3 things: 1. Battles took forever during early to midgame due to enemy now being damage sponges 2. Battle skills increased "faster" in relation to quest progression. Of course due to a much higher factor of usage per same enemy number per quest. 3. In the endgame with outmaxed combat skills and some PG enchantments battles did not take so long anymore. But Dragons still one-shot me with their bite attack even though I had armor cap and took health in every level-up. So in summation, not a great experience...
Love this! I only play Skyrim in Legendary Survival. Playing as a pure mage is the most hardcore build I've ever played in any game. People who complain about Elden Ring being too hard haven't played Skyrim on LS! Good stuff.
I've been playing Skyrim again on legendary survival and loving it! Its so brutal! I'd say dealing with the cold is one of the most difficult parts. I'm also not using companions which really ups the difficulty. I do use conjuring though and definitely abuse the classical stealth build. I do plan on mastering magic in the long run though. Just need to accumulate enough perk points first 😊
This video inspired me to try a legendary survival playthrough of my own, and HOLY SHIT. A few things: - Pickpocketing is an insane way to get your levels up. - I should’ve started playing with alchemy and enchanting a lot sooner. - Silverhands are incredibly strong and Farkas is useless. - The Forsworn are impossible to fight. - You will actually start crafting arrows. I’ve never done that once before in all of my time playing Skyrim. Also, Faendal was the clear choice. He can’t sing, but the archery leveling is unbeatable.
I always go with Ralof at the start. Imperial armor sells for more gold than Stormcloak armor. So looting as much Imp armor to sell for quick gold is always great
Tbh it has its pros and cons. If you side with Hadvsr you get free smithing supplies. IMO, it’s way better for the long run but in the begfinifn you don’t have as much money. Ralof gives a lot of money but doesn’t mean anything as you probably won’t buy anything.
Just a couple days ago I convinced myself to touch the legendary difficulty. And yeah, hired thugs encounter at level low level is ridiculous. The guards won't help, and I only have poor Meeko.
@@sirkelendor5429 this is why Fallout 4 survival mode was so good for me. The reward off of the legendary enemies made it so much more fun, in top of the fact it increased both damage dealt and damage received rather than just making enemies tank every hit
@@GE_Slzy i honestly wish they did more for the difficulty in these games instead of just "numbers become bigger" like imagine if they changed what levels enemies could spawn at, the equipment they use, new random encounters, etc. Itd be more enjoyable and id probably play on higher difficulties
@@sirkelendor5429 I can deal with the Fallout hard mode but Skyrim feels like just a walking simulator trying to do the simplest tasks for the same reward you would get on the easiest difficulty. Fallout 4 spawns more legendary enemies and the battles feel alot different for me personally. I really enjoyed playing Fallout 4 and getting threw all the side quests and getting the special weapons and using them for the main quests. It felt like a bigger accomplishment and also didn’t feel like a full time job as did Skyrim. Even tho I like Skyrim as a game more, Fallout did great with making the survival mode feel like, 1 a survivor styled game, 2 a overall better player experience. You wouldn’t just eat random stuff and had to stop to cook your food, take the time to purify your water, ect.
I adore this game, one life has basically revived it for me, I played it ALOT for the first 3 years of its lifespan, like all day most days, I was 15-18 barely worked until I was 17, and couldn't afford to buy games regularly, was reliant on gifts for releases like cod and FIFA and was still playing Skyrim more than anything else, think I did the main questline twice in that entire time, I just absolutely love the gameplay loop on this game, so id always make a new character after I got overpowered and wanted to experience the grind all over again. So one life playthroughs were introduced to me a while back by STER's one life playthroughs however many years ago it was now, which literally caused me to buy Skyrim for the PS4, because I had given my PS3 to my little brother at that point who'd sold his own Xbox because he was playing it too much and raging all the time at it, so he went back to playing old PS3 games, mainly zombies, which we played together a whole load. Back on topic, I bought Skyrim for the PS4 for like £35 because I just HAD to play the game. That itch that couldn't be scratched by anything else had been triggered, and one life became my pass time for a good 4 months, but once I'd gotten to the point where id beaten the main story line and done everything besides the stuff that requires you to be ridiculously high level like the fight against the one guy in the mountains somewhere. During this entire time I'd never once touched survival mode, not even sure of it's a new addition or has always been in the game, still havent tried it, recently discovered a few channels that do the survival mode as a standard and that itch is coming back.
If you had completed "A Night to Remember" you would have received the Sanguine Rose staff, which conjures a dremora lord to fight for you. Handy. Loved this story. Great fun.
Both of my legendary survival playthroughs had their first death from fall damage. Two different places a jumped into murky water onto the only rock in the vicinity. I think on my next one I'll get "become ethereal" asap. though i do like not doing the starting quest too soon because dragons
I think this is the third time ive watched this video in full, and it just keeps beeing entertaining to watch no matter how many times i come back to it :) love this video and love part 2, keep it up!!
Excellent storytelling and editing. I have played through on survival, so I chose Nord for his cold resistance, since many places are frostbite hazards. I level up quickly by maxing out trainers (made affordable by pickpocketing gold back and by using companions as free trainers, starting off with Sven's rival), and by the magic trio of smithing, enchanting, and alchemy. I typically get over level 100 even before half way through the game. I want those perks. I keep frustration to a manageable level by working my way up to legendary only once I become rather over-powered. Survival mode makes the game more slow and tedious but it makes it feel more realistic and life like. One thing I especially like about survival mode is that I can choose when to level up, not just automatically (I want to max out trainer points).
A lot of people do challenges and runs like this, but the fact you sorta roleplay it is what makes it interesting. You make a narrative out of the challenges
Believe it or not, a "Fantast RPG with survival elements" like this is fairly common in Roblox since around 2010. None has ever been this ruthless tho.
Great vid.. Hope to see more Skyrim in the future! One question though, you got the Mace of Molag Bol, and continued using the dwarven mace? Was that just for looks of being all in Dwarven gear/weapons?.. it confused me.. lol
Top tip if you're a vampire lord you won't freeze to death while traveling just make sure you stand next to a fire or inside a cave for a few moments before reverting form. You can also hover over water and quickly travel with fast flying as a vampire lord. Also namiras ring let's you be a cannibal so if you want to be evil you can eat those you beat lol almost never worrying about food again.
The last time I tried legendary difficulty I set it BRFORE I made a new game... I died from fire three times in helgen while jumping from the tower to the INN
Oh, there once was a hero named Ragnar the Red Who came riding to Whiterun from ole Rorikstead And the braggart did swagger and brandish his blade As he told of bold battles and gold he had made But then he went quiet, did Ragnar the Red When he met the shieldmaiden Matilda who said Oh, you talk and you lie and you drink all our mead Now I think it's high time that you lie down and bleed And so then came clashing and slashing of steel As the brave lass Matilda charged in full of zeal And the braggart named Ragnar was boastful no more When his ugly red head rolled around on the floor And the braggart named Ragnar was boastful no more When his ugly red head rolled around on the floor
For anyone looking to do a plate though with normal blocking or a mod that doesn’t lock you in an animation when block (IE, just simple animation replacer mods) if you release your block before the attack hits you. You block the attack, remove all stun and can even swing back. Like a riposte, amazing for when you don’t have stamina mods and want to hit back.

to be fair, in survival mode you need to sleep to level up, so inns are usually the most convenient way to do that
@@miss_baphomet You also need to sleep regardless of leveling up because otherwise you will suffer penalities due to sleep deprivation

That itch that couldn't be scratched by anything else had been triggered, and one life became my pass time for a good 4 months, but once I'd gotten to the point where id beaten the main story line and done everything besides the stuff that requires you to be ridiculously high level like the fight against the one guy in the mountains somewhere.
During this entire time I'd never once touched survival mode, not even sure of it's a new addition or has always been in the game, still havent tried it, recently discovered a few channels that do the survival mode as a standard and that itch is coming back.
just in case you try this madness again, there should be a boat in dawnstar you could take to solitude for a carriage
Angery
Nazeem is the true Dragonborn
This is genius, pls continue the series
Almost certainly will!
lol why did I get misty at the way you wrapped it all up at the tavern, reminded me of how d&d campaigns wrapup, noice
You've fallen for my ploy
RIP Sven. Gone but not forgotten. A true hero of Skyrim. 😮💨
the sven montage with his dead naked body floating down the river was gold lol
Instant sub, this is freakin quality entertainment!
If you had completed "A Night to Remember" you would have received the Sanguine Rose staff, which conjures a dremora lord to fight for you. Handy. Loved this story. Great fun.
I was too scared of the final room with the portal. Might try it in the next 50
@@Loamy_TV Ha! Can't blame you for that. Those mages are nasty and numerous.
Justice for sven👇
Man I really love that he kept buttons alive the whole time. Makes me happy
Loved your humour keep it up. I subscribed for more 👍
I'm a year late I know but at 5:35 the room was still rented to you, which is why you couldn't rent it again, you can just keep using it
This is so dumb and I absolutely love it lmao 😂
I always play Legendary-Survival without mods, can't imagine using fast travel in such a game.
Both of my legendary survival playthroughs had their first death from fall damage. Two different places a jumped into murky water onto the only rock in the vicinity.
I think on my next one I'll get "become ethereal" asap.
though i do like not doing the starting quest too soon because dragons
Yeah I watched someone else's playthrough after and they held off to prevent dragons. Would have been useful but also less epic so idk
Would love to see a continuation of this! Great job
Did you really use invisibility against the falmer? 😂
Sometimes I don't know what goes through my head I swear hahaha
I think this is the third time ive watched this video in full, and it just keeps beeing entertaining to watch no matter how many times i come back to it :) love this video and love part 2, keep it up!!
30 mins in and I'm loving this video. Hope it gets the views it deserves.👊
16:48 Did you seriously try to use invisibility to sneak past a blind enemy 😐
They smelled my fear
Excellent storytelling and editing. I have played through on survival, so I chose Nord for his cold resistance, since many places are frostbite hazards. I level up quickly by maxing out trainers (made affordable by pickpocketing gold back and by using companions as free trainers, starting off with Sven's rival), and by the magic trio of smithing, enchanting, and alchemy. I typically get over level 100 even before half way through the game. I want those perks. I keep frustration to a manageable level by working my way up to legendary only once I become rather over-powered. Survival mode makes the game more slow and tedious but it makes it feel more realistic and life like. One thing I especially like about survival mode is that I can choose when to level up, not just automatically (I want to max out trainer points).
I just stumbled upon this on a really bad mental health day and you made me laugh through my tears. Thank you. Subbed.
I love it, I'm shocked to see you only have 10k subs??? You're amazing, love the video!
*gives Mjoll the Wabbajack* “STOP USING THE WABBAJACK!!” 😂
I didnt come here to be attacked
“Stop using the wabbajack, it’s not doing anything…” in the saddest voice ever
A lot of people do challenges and runs like this, but the fact you sorta roleplay it is what makes it interesting. You make a narrative out of the challenges
Nah bro, amazing video. The end cut me deep. I’m still playing skyrim after all these years and man it great to see other still enjoying it!
Cheers!
Believe it or not, a "Fantast RPG with survival elements" like this is fairly common in Roblox since around 2010. None has ever been this ruthless tho.
The “look how they massacred my boy” scene at 13:08 put me into a catatonic state
I burst out laughing when you accidently killed Sven with the shout, because i have done that quite few times to Lydia
How could you laugh? Sven is dead and your laughing
@@unshodcurve4836 I always choose Faendal
@@majesticed9329 good because Faendal is without flaw
I love finding growing channels like this with well executed humor, and quality. I can’t see this channel not growing
God I loved his commentary. I'm hearing hot Brit accent, homoeroticism, pinkish mentality, smartassness, and just cheeky joy. Fun
This was funny AF played skyrim for years and haven't ever seen this channel glad I found it!!
In the start:I’m not a furry
Literally 5 minutes later: I WANT TO BE A WEREWOLF 😂
...damn it
@@Loamy_TV welcome to the fandom I guess😂
Great vid.. Hope to see more Skyrim in the future!
One question though, you got the Mace of Molag Bol, and continued using the dwarven mace? Was that just for looks of being all in Dwarven gear/weapons?.. it confused me.. lol
I think it had lower damage after I upgraded my dwarvern mace? I think when I can improve it I'll be going back to using it
Top tip if you're a vampire lord you won't freeze to death while traveling just make sure you stand next to a fire or inside a cave for a few moments before reverting form. You can also hover over water and quickly travel with fast flying as a vampire lord. Also namiras ring let's you be a cannibal so if you want to be evil you can eat those you beat lol almost never worrying about food again.
Thank you for donating too! Great video
I love that you did everything you could to make this as hard as possible for yourself
The last time I tried legendary difficulty I set it BRFORE I made a new game... I died from fire three times in helgen while jumping from the tower to the INN
I legit saw this full. It was refreshing and fun to see!
The first time I played Skyrim I played it on legendary for no reason and when going up the mountains I always died from cold or regular enemies, lol
gotta do another playthrough of this gem, you got me excited again!! This earns an instant subscription 🤩
That Balgruuf impression was almost a perfect Dracula!
Gem of a TH-cam channel, glad I stumbled in your video!
Giggling over the trappy trappy them dead me happy technique. 😂🎉
Lol the way u just tossed Sven in the river 😂😂😢💀🫣
Brooooo I felt this on so many levels😂 props and very fun memories
Oh, there once was a hero named Ragnar the Red
Who came riding to Whiterun from ole Rorikstead
And the braggart did swagger and brandish his blade
As he told of bold battles and gold he had made
But then he went quiet, did Ragnar the Red
When he met the shieldmaiden Matilda who said
Oh, you talk and you lie and you drink all our mead
Now I think it's high time that you lie down and bleed
And so then came clashing and slashing of steel
As the brave lass Matilda charged in full of zeal
And the braggart named Ragnar was boastful no more
When his ugly red head rolled around on the floor
And the braggart named Ragnar was boastful no more
When his ugly red head rolled around on the floor
For anyone looking to do a plate though with normal blocking or a mod that doesn’t lock you in an animation when block (IE, just simple animation replacer mods) if you release your block before the attack hits you. You block the attack, remove all stun and can even swing back. Like a riposte, amazing for when you don’t have stamina mods and want to hit back.
Invisibility against the blind falmer was quality
