Aww man I really wanted to play as a skaven or something (hopefully the creators of vermintide will give thought into that idea) also have an awesome day! YES! YES! (Tried to add a bit of skaven speak there not sure if I did it right)
I'm a year late but by the Sun this is super impressive. With how you faked the gameplay using blender and was able to convince so many people of it. Bravo.
I just love this character you could’ve simply made him a cowering little shit who is just misunderstood and absolutely ruined any chance of an interesting dialogue but you made an actual “nice” Skaven he’s not doing this because he’s nice but because he has his own reasons he’s damn funny and his interactions with everyone shows just how much he doesn’t belong there well also showing why he doesn’t belong in the under empire either
@@Janfon1 How you managed to get all this files? How you found actual strings? How you connected subtitle strings to actual audio files? I exported all sound files from Vermintide 1, but I couldn't find dialog strings anywhere... And there is no way to link them to audio files anyways... This makes me rly sad!
I think the best part of the voice acting was vs. the stormfiend it conveys his past, fear, and knowledge all in one go. These are creatures who would have been his worst nightmare in hellpit yet he knows their weakness it's the absolute best part.
I love all these details you put remembered for these scenarios; Skaven having great night vision, or the fact that the Bells have a psychic effect on all them because of crazy magic.
this is incredible. i've also thought about adding characters from the enemy roster for years now. a little pesky skaven mechanic who seeks to be unrestrained by his abusive masters is literally perfect. i've thought about a somewhat similar concept for a Marauder character. some northerner who actually despises the chaos gods and sees their "blessings" as a curse upon his people. always thought it would be a cool dynamic with Salts, both of them despising chaos to the same degree and being in the same boat, but never actually trusting one another.
Being a slave to the Dark Gods kinda sucks, I'm sure plenty of Marauder warriors would happily turn on their masters if they could. The lore says they're still human, on the tabletop they're still subject to morale like any other mortal. It's just that it's really hard to leave cults, and even harder in a fantasy setting where the cult members have access to actual magic. Skaven aren't exactly pleasant to be around, but they're intelligent, there's millions of them, and most of them are brutally oppressed by the castes above them. Beastmen are often born to other beastmen & raised as part of a murderous horde of rampaging assholes. Any that refuse to be part of the horde are killed and eaten. Human parents will usually abandon or kill their mutated children, which gives beastmen a GREAT reason to hate & mistrust humans. It's entirely possible for any of these guys to turn on their fellows! Even on moral grounds! It's less likely that they'd join up with the Five, since that would involve trusting the Empire... but stranger things have happened!
@@Ninjat126 The norscan relationship with the dark gods seems to me like “Depends on the person.” Type of thing. For example the Skaeling are naval raiders who are no strangers to integrating with Nordlanders. Nordland itself has been heavily influenced by Norsca, and is said to be made up of significant Norse. Wulfrik the Wanderer, although a slave of the Gods, absolutely hates the gods because of the curse they put on him. It even goes as far as tribal affiliation. Varg is especially connected to Chaos. The Norscan tribes overwhelming worship Chaos but a reasonably sensical norscan is definitely not out of the realm of possibility.
Or rather a Chaos champion who seeks to prove his worth to the dark gods...by slaying other Chaos champions, the 5 stubble onto this odd Chaos warrior as he's fighting his fellows. He also tries to understand why the 5 think Chaos is objectively evil while he sees it as a way of life. He would (with begrudging oblige) have theological debates with Saltzpyre about the various pros and cons of the gods, even pointing out Sigmar's shortcomings...imagine that, Saltzpyre would probably pop a gasket! Also he would tell stories about his older sister who ascended to demonhood as a valkyrie-esque warrior of Khorne!
I like the idea, but 3 of the 5 would be two Skaven ladders away from just shooting him. Kruber wouldn’t give a shit, sienna only slightly more so. But Saltzpyre’s whole life runs counter to Skaven kind. Bardin has lost kin to skaven, which is a death sentence for all Skaven. And Kerillian likes killing them.
Janfon and I had that exact discussion, with an AU where they can't get to Skarrik, they'd need an inside man, er rat, for the job. Who's to say they don't immediately kill Pusfume afterwards?
I love this nasty little rat man so much thank you and the VA for creating him! I'd love to see more of him in the future but make sure to take care of yourself! Also I'm sad he isn't real dlc I want a playable skaven so bad :((
Glad you included subtitles for the dialogues. It's difficult to understand what characters say with noise around them, especially when they have very high-pitched voices. So thank you for going the extra mile.
Insert meme: I've only had *Pusfume* for a day and a half, but if anything happened to him, I would kill everyone in this room and then myself. I just wish this was official content.
I say that you do voice lines for when pusfume get attacked by a elites or specials Like for example when he is being dragged around by the pack master or having his soul eaten by the fat guy @JanFon1
you know, even knowing how it was all made, it still looks too convincing, to the point that it could still pass as an official mod, specially with the light and movement effects.
He would be AMAZING in the team and I can´t actually see why there couldn´t be skaven in party. Sure, I know they are main antagonists - but I´m absolutely sure they must have spy in the midst of skaven hierarchy. So it could be him.
This really is brilliant. You probably won't see this but the creativity and charm that you bring these characters through your animations is incredible and made me revisit vermintide once more and somehow root for a skaven. Instantly subbed.
I'm SO happy this is becoming a thing! I think Fatshark has to deal with legal/copyright stuff but mods are 100% non-official so this is WONDERFUL! You have my respect and support!!!
playable skaven alongside the ubersreik five: to hell with this lore defilement! Spinoff were we play as pactsworn (beastmen, chaos warriors, skaven) invading the empire: hell yes this would be better than darktide!
I remember seeing a post that showed a fan imagining of a Tomb King, a Skink and some other races joining together for their own Vermintide, that would be pretty cool too
I'm gonna give these videos one more day, let them marinate a little and then I'll make a special poll asking if you and community in general would like to see Behind The Scenes footage

I'm not gonna pretend I'm some kind of spokesperson for the Vermintide 2 modders, but I think we can theoretically have Pusfume, but only in the coding department alone with zero visual flare

@@johngregg6325 I honestly wish the game had some nice story based missions for the 5. Having a Pusfume based mission would be great :D Great job btw
being a outcast slave, Ya life is just that no slave is to have power ever.
agreed
@D. plz
The dialogue banter flows better than I would've expected and didn't seem out of place despite it being a Skaven character.
It's not hard to find appropriate voice lines when I have thousands to pick from
@@Janfon1 gonna assume you dug into A LOT of skaven chatter lines from both game and other sorces. as i find the speach pattern hard to get into

Now I'm really curious to listen to Pusfume singing "Over The Mountain" :P
Pusfume's voice acting kinda reminds me of the grunts/ungoi from halo.
Ooh, I could totally do Grunt voices. Good shout!
3:36 Pusfume:watch me get this video demonetized. Yes-Yes.

Yep, tried to corner all the characters into having to work with him as much as possible
Probably why the first interaction has Markus and Sienna there.

@@piercingblue3657 That is high praise, thank you so much!

Please this NEEDS to be an official thing, or at the very least a kickass mod. I'd support the shit out of this
Omg, i thought for a moment that was official update, its so well done, thank you for the compilation, this is cool stuff
Happy to provide
@@Janfon1 :-*
Thats amazing look at the what modding could be for Vermintide 2, this would make more players go back to the game...
Imagine if Vermintide was moddable to this extent. Of course there'd be some drawbacks (Bikini armor) but still.
You wanna see saltspire in that armor don't you?
@@deamonmindgaming2054 Don’t we all
Implying bikini armor is a drawback.
Implying making Bardin look like midget Conan would be bad
Before reading the description, I was confused as hell. Wondering "when did they add in a Skaven character DLC!?"
same here
Skaven? Where?
Goddammit ! That's heresy from a Saltzpyre main like me ... But now i want it to be part of the Ubersreik Five ... Or six ?!?
Four, six, ten, who's counting?
Having the enemy skaven recognize Pussfume and call him out is such a cool touch
So much talent from you and everyone who worked on this casted onto the non deserving. Absolutely brilliant work
"does some one have a lantern?"
"sound-seems like a skill issue"
_"Apologies, but when Pusfume speaks, I feel my brain cells committing suicide, one by one"_
I love this nasty little rat man so much thank you and the VA for creating him! I'd love to see more of him in the future but make sure to take care of yourself! Also I'm sad he isn't real dlc I want a playable skaven so bad :((
Glad you enjoyed! Pusfume took a lot of love and care to design and voice
This is a lot better than it has any right to be. Well Fucking done. Pardon my language.
Language pardoned haha
thx!
I love this so much! The "schemer" small but yet dangerous ones always have a place with me.
Love it! Would be great if it could become official
A man can dream
a defector as class, BRILLIANT!
"Did someone beings a lantern??
"Weak man things eyes"
"Perfume eyes are superior"
"Go annoy someone else"
Lol i love that
Glad you included subtitles for the dialogues. It's difficult to understand what characters say with noise around them, especially when they have very high-pitched voices.
So thank you for going the extra mile.
i really wish i didn't watch this video and the trailer, now i crave for a playable skaven character even more than i did
This is absolutely the best thing I've ever seen for Vermintide! Makes me want to literally pay for this, mod or not!
Add this to another list of "Fake Thing I Want To Be Real" just like the Bardin Songbook.
He is adorable. I want to take him home and snuggle him.
No better trope than an enemy infantrymen joining the hero's side
I'd actually pay the full games price again for this to happen. (plus DLCs)
Insert meme:
I've only had *Pusfume* for a day and a half, but if anything happened to him, I would kill everyone in this room and then myself.
I just wish this was official content.
I wish there was more jitter-speak in the dialogue, like kill-slay or look-see. I always liked that about Skaven dialogue. That said, amazing job.
I hate how mean they are to him but I like him. Wholesome skaven potential
Amazing work. Ngl, would be amazing as a character.
Playable Skaven?
All I see is respectable Empire citizen. Carry on.
Fr everything you make is awesome
I love him, he's so precious and must be protected.
And maybe given a larger gun.
FINALLY, YES! Been wanting a playable skaven for so long!
I say that you do voice lines for when pusfume get attacked by a elites or specials
Like for example when he is being dragged around by the pack master or having his soul eaten by the fat guy
@JanFon1
Wait. So... is this a mod or... what? Huh? What's going on? Howwha....
actually really enjoyed this, wish there was something weird like this in real lore
I would honestly love to just see more vermintalk styled videos with just pusfume lines this is great
He's trying his best
Man you've shown me that, this game has a good community for sure and damn its going to be a top tier mod in my list
you know, even knowing how it was all made, it still looks too convincing, to the point that it could still pass as an official mod, specially with the light and movement effects.
I don't want pusfume to get added. I NEED pusfume to get added, i love him so much.
You can't spell love without Skaven.
i love everything about this
I love this little ball of fur
I honestly would’ve loved this. He doesn’t hold a place in the ubersreik 5 but he adds more characters and overall interesting stuff.
Imagine finding this guy caged up out in the Chaos Wastes and getting an achievement and character unlock for freeing him.
lets all remember that Kerilian wnats a doll of scaven to hug... sooo....
"No Elf-thing, dont turn me into a plushe no-no....
*AAAAAAAAAa...*"
I think he means well. I mean, I've read his bio which claims he seeks to usurp the Council of 13, but--
That’s par for the course
That's just Skaven-kind, yes-yes.
He would be AMAZING in the team and I can´t actually see why there couldn´t be skaven in party. Sure, I know they are main antagonists - but I´m absolutely sure they must have spy in the midst of skaven hierarchy. So it could be him.
This and Skaven cooperated with humans in literature as well, even if only for their own vile benefit - Skavenslayer is a good example, I recommend it
This really is brilliant. You probably won't see this but the creativity and charm that you bring these characters through your animations is incredible and made me revisit vermintide once more and somehow root for a skaven. Instantly subbed.

Watching this now, I'm reminded of a fanfic idea I had where the Ubersreik Five basically wound up with a Strigoi ally.
I'm in love with his laugh
It fits perfectly
Seems like he’s genuinely trying to help. Then I remember he's a skaven.
He’s adorable and I want to protect him with my life
