it is a complete conversion mod with its own launcher on steam. if you own Skyrim, it's free to download. it completely changes gameplay, story, environment. It is basically a whole new game using skyrim as a foundation. i would highly recommend it to anyone! I have a whole play-through on my channel here if you wanna check it out to help understand it a bit more.

@ProudBeard_ thanks)

In all fairness, why wouldn’t you lie to a creepy kid who had control over everyone with a powerful mysterious stone who wants me to stay with him forever… I wasn’t going to take that chance haha. And I just pick the dialogue option that makes the most sense to me and the most interesting. I swear I don’t avoid those on purpose lol.

Woah wait really? The Aged was the previous prophet?? That's SO cool!!! I did not make that connection at all. That's absolutely wild holy cow! I dont think i would regret that decision but i guess if i waited all that time for everything to start up again, and it still failed, that sucks... Thank you for sharing that! and I'm going to have to agree with you on it being one of the best story driven in a long time!!! I am glad i played it!

@ProudBeard_ you skipped some dialogue with the black guardian about him, the aged man was there way before the black guardian and if you replay the quest involving him now, knowing the end and these twists, it's fairly obvious if you pay close attention to the details in his manor and during the dialogues with the aged man. RUclipsr ParadigmOfLow has an exploration video about this, if you don't want to replay and still know this.

@@narve7337 yeah I guess I was so tunnel visioned being so close to the end and the excitement that was bringing with it. I must’ve overlooked it and it slipped passed me. I will definitely check out their video for sure though!!! Thanks 😊

@@ProudBeard_ That's no surprise. I can only recommend replaying the game at a really slow pace and paying close attention to the side quests and unmarked quests told through the environment in Enderal. That's when you notice how well written it actually is. There are so many hints regarding the main story. The Cleansing can be found in so many places (bard songs for example!) and there are so many hints everywhere but still you only notice them when you look at them while already in the picture of the main story. Just a few examples: * The Aged man (what I already hinted at) * the starling tinker quest, where you see how the black guardian actually came to be * Zar'Ah from the last Rhalata quest and her link to Jespar * The Cleansing being literally described in the lyrics of the Winter Sky bard song They really took their time to develop a fully thought through world. It's truely remarkable. No one is abled to notice even half of it on their first playthrough. it's impossible.

@@narve7337 I agree that is a lot of context to be given almost from the moment you start playing. Not knowing a lot of that stuff though didn’t hinder my experience with the game at all. Which goes to show the talented writers still being able to tell their story without me having to find a random book in a random dungeon to tell me what’s going on. You know? I still had an incredible and enjoyable time being in the world and learning what I have. I’m not sure if I’ll play it again any time soon so I will certainly check out that video you recommended! Again, I do apologize if I missed context (probably most of it was super obvious) but I still had fun nonetheless, and I appreciate you telling me all that. And from my understanding, there is a book related to this story but it follow Jespar? I’m definitely going to check that out too!!

You’re welcome! And Thank YOU for watching. I greatly appreciate it. Stay tuned for what’s next 😊

Haha that is great way to look at that! This game absolutely loves messing with me! Especially with the amount of jumpscares I manage to find lol I legit almost missed the veiled woman. She was so well hidden. It didn’t even cross my mind to go up the stairs initially. 😂

😄

Oof… alright. Good to know that doesn’t work lol. Thanks for letting me know!! I was trying something a little different, but at least I know not to do that again. ❤️ sorry for making ya motion sick.

@@ProudBeard_ The idea can work, just not at that speed. Or perhaps with a reminder/recommendation that we can slow the speed of the video if it is too fast for us... a feature that I totally forgot about while watching it _facepalm_

@@Ilwenray85I will keep that in mind! Thank you!

Hmm I must be thinking and remembering something else then about the underground train. I could have sworn there was something in one of those dlc’s but it’s been so long I can’t remember lol 😂

There are so many blank parchments just lying around in just about every table I’ve seen so I guess I kinda just overlooked it. And that’s not my fault they put the button before any kind of dialogue, how was I supposed to know? 😅 If there aren’t any restrictions on when they allow the expansions to be done, it typically means they can be done at any moment in the playthrough. Not just after the story. Plus, I didn’t even know lol it just sounded interesting. So I did it. I know Lishiri just explained why they were down there, but if that happened only moments before I arrived, then how did they already set up camps down there? They bring a whole caravan with them? I do agree that there is a disconnect because I’m not the prophet. Nor have i read the books this is based on. Of course I’m gonna care about different things as a player. I’m not 100% sure what you mean by something bugging out when catching the thief. Everything went normal and didn’t break?? I’m not too worried about being friendzoned.. or being the one to friend zone. The world is ending, no time for romance lol ❤

@@ProudBeard_ That was the bandit's hideout. The Order showed interest on the place only after deciphering some documents from the prior place that was burning... something very recent. Those bandits run inside like morons because they wanted to protect their loot. By bug I meant the dialogue appearing: you didn't access the information so why was it there at all? The game taking for granted you know things you don't know... it is indeed a bug. For context, there is a feature where the order you do some quests alter the available choices that appear based on what the Prophet knows. For example that quest in the Undercity with the guy selling red Vynroot by a lot of money, if you joined the Order the choice of solving the problem on the long run would be there, instead of just paying what he owed that month to the Rhalâta. The order of things is dictated by the number of * in the quests: is not only an indicator of how hard they are to do but also when you should do them. Main quest was 2* while Esme was 4* They don't block you from doing them out of order, but maybe they should because some things just don't make any sense otherwise xD Edit: The * were making the text bold, so I changed it to numbers xD

@@Ilwenray85yeah I mean if there was a message that came up that told me not to do certain quests before finishing main story, obviously I would abide by that lol. But since there isn’t, I didn’t know, so again I just did what sounded cool in the moment. And I also was under the assumption that the bandits and the order arrived at the same time but the bandits sprinted in setting off all the booby traps leaving the order behind. In the moment, it didn’t seem like the bandits were already inside long before. At least not to me 🤷🏻‍♂️

No i can’t say I do know anything about Gnosticism unfortunately. And I guess I don’t necessarily agree that being over leveled “ruins” the play through. I would much rather be able to get into the main story and have all my attention on the story that is being given to me than worrying about dying around every corner. (As much as I do love the deathloops too, it would drive me insane if there were too many back to back to back.) And I didn’t know you could buy a house AND decorate too!? Hopefully it’s not too intuitive because I will never finish the story and just spend all my time decorating haha 😂

@@ProudBeard_I said _can do it_ (screwing your run) because in this kind of scenarios of being overpowered the story of the videogame has to grasp the player in such a way, that even if the game turns into a weird interactive book the player won't care about it. The lack of adrenaline during combat doesn't matter to them, because they get that adrenaline from the story and what happens next. Sometimes Enderal can achieve it, sometimes it can't, it is a matter of taste. When it can't do it the run is indeed screwed, so I hope it works for you ^^ You can have two houses, the way I do it is on one I use that mod (the unique museum it has is just a must for me) and in the other I turn into a carpenter and I do everything myself. It indeed extends the time spent in Enderal by a lot xD

@@Ilwenray85don’t worry, it’ll work for me just fine. It’s not my first rodeo 😉

I’m honestly not the biggest Godzilla fan so I’m not surprised I would have missed the Easter egg for it. Lol sorry. And don’t worry, I’m sure I will still find ways to have those loops! And if you are referring to the chest in that final boss room, I have gone back to get it. I noticed it while editing. It kinda blended in the first time around.

Lol I figured since I haven’t seen anything like that yet, it had some level of importance. Noted 😉

That’s the one I have to meet… I think the name is “Pahitri” something like that. I’ve gotta go to their camp! I’ll get to that eventually. And I wasn’t aware it had a time limit with Jespar, guess I’ll do that first thing in the next one! Thanks ❤

Yeah after editing the video I notice that is what happened. I was clicking way too fast. But in the moment it seemed like a random encounter. Still cool though 😌

Okay good to know I’m not crazy!!! I literally saw it for a second and then got interrupted from a fight and couldn’t find it again! Lol thanks! 😊 You know me, I’m all in for a dangerous and hard encounter haha

I could have sworn I saw something over the edge but ended up getting stuck pretty badly lol. Leave it to me to break the immersion 😅

The death loops are always dedicated to you my friend 😂

Yeah I most likely had a scroll. That’s my goldfish brain for ya, I forget I have them sometimes. Lol And yes!!! The next couple of videos I will be finishing up my exploration time and it will be full on story quests soon! I appreciate you sticking with me 😊

Yeah i guess i was thinking more of what decision i would make in the moment. What she was doing with the nobles is fundamentally wrong and needed to be stopped. and i remember Jespar saying that, i was just shocked that is what they look like lol.

I’m not sure how anyone could be a melee build in this game with all the ranged attacks thrown at you! I’m glad you enjoyed the fight lol

@@ProudBeard_ I've tried melee a couple times but it was really tough going. I wind up eventually switching back to magic. But maybe it's just me, someone else may be able to get melee to work (but I don't see how).

I guess with enough magic resistance and a shield… then just maybe. But that’s a pretty big maybe haha. Although I could totally see if you could freeze enemies or slow time and you quickly go around slashing them. But even then, that’s a lot of prep.

@@jeanjones7396 The plot pushes you to be a mage: you are suffering from Arcane Fever regardless, not using magic feels dumb. Still, sneak builds work, and having the mage be an Apparition while you are a werewolf is another interesting one.

@@Ilwenray85 Maybe I'll try sneak archer next time, right now I'm playing Dark Mage again. It would be nice to do something different. How do you get to be an apparition? Is it a memory? a spell?

Dang that stick mini game was harder than it is now? I struggled a little with that one haha. Finding the stones wasn’t too bad for me but if there weren’t any markers, I could see that being very frustrating. Now that we have the momentum, it’s gonna be like Lucio all day. “Cant stop won’t stop” 😂

I barely made it through subnautica so I think I can power through this lol! Nope I didn’t edit that first death loop. I’m just that good 😎 And I tried to use some of the other spells but they were a bit underwhelming to me. I’m a few videos ahead of you all, but I’ll do better to show some variety. And even though I might skip over details or make it harder on myself, I’m still having a great time! So bare with me. It’s a blind playthrough after all :)

​@@ProudBeard_ I know that the player experience is important and that you prefer a certain way of playing, but by uploading it you add the layer of viewer experience to the mix. The focus in Enderal is the story, in Skyrim is exploration. You prefer exploration, so ok, go around and explore, but... _sigh_ You are a very good player. You are able to turn death loops into a victory, but while I am watching you, I don't feel I am watching Enderal's combat. I wrote a big chunk here, but... I don't think you would understand me at this stage.

@@Ilwenray85don’t get me wrong. I appreciate the feedback. I really do! I want to make the game as enjoyable to watch as it is enjoyable for me to play. And you are right, I am focusing on exploration in this “early” stage but think of it this way. We won’t have to worry about it in the future! This is the first series where someone has given me any kind of feedback so I’m still learning. Really sucks that it’s frustrating to watch considering I’m having such a great time though. But I still appreciate you all the same! :)

@@ProudBeard_ Judging from your reply to the other comment, then please let me say something, so you have an idea of what my criticism comes from. You want to do a glass cannon build, correct? Then the closer you are to 100% mana reduction the less useful such a build is, because your total amount of mana is irrelevant. Increasing the skill Elementalism just reduces the mana costs (up to a 50%) it doesn't increase the damage you do. That is because the effect you get while raising skills is not consistent with each other. What is called a glass cannon build in Enderal is doing an Entropist with normal health and mana. Because they use their own health for spells on top of the mana, and have spells that deal more damage the less % they have. Managing mana is very easy, managing your health is the interesting thing, when to switch spells after reaching a certain ratio. Also, increasing Entropy scales the damage of the spells, and also all the summoned weapons scale with it. The most important thing about how I feel about the combat is that is not fluid enough. Maybe include Devour Soul into the rotation, to absorb dead enemies to heal you and keep the momentum of the fights. It will also create a small explosion that sometimes stuns enemies. Perhaps try using Focus before combat, it will reduce the cost of mana so less pauses, and using combos like ice + electricity can cause shatter so you will kill some enemies instantly saving time. Tangentially related to combat, if you equip at least two pieces of a set, you will earn a bonus. Maybe you don't care about what an individual piece does, but the set bonus is something you want to keep. Check in the active effects for what they are doing. But *at the end of the day, all my criticism comes from the fact that I don't like vanilla Skyrim so all this is very subjective.* I don't like its intentional _lack of purpose_ so you are free to roleplay whatever, and go everywhere. I don't like the combat either, it is made to make you feel like a god (a Dragonborn) but at the end you can solve everything doing the same two things over and over. Enderal does what it can to separate themselves from Skyrim, but if your approach is doing what makes you comfortable/what you are used to instead of embracing the changes, then... it feels I am watching Skyrim, and I don't like Skyrim xD Edit: Rhetorics is also something that I don't understand why it is a skill. Because the plot already thinks you are charismatic, so making it a skill that you can ignore creates ludonarrative dissonance. Still, is not only your ability to convince people, it is also your ability to realize when they are lying to you.

@@Ilwenray85 Now that is the level of tips and tricks I can get behind! 😍 like I said before I am a few episodes ahead of you all (I try to be a week ahead) so it may take a couple episodes before changes are shown. But I hear you! I did not know that increasing the skills didn’t increase damage of certain spells. That is actually really good to know for the future! I guess we have different ideas of what a glass cannon is but I totally understand what you are saying. I do end up adding and discovering Devour souls in a couple videos and it has been a life saver (literally) haha. And using the ice+electric combo is something that I’ve briefly thought about so if you say it’s good. Then I will do it 😌 As far as different named sets, I do end up finding a really nice one in the next couple episodes but… spoilers 😉 And again, I do genuinely appreciate the criticism. I want it to be enjoyable to watch just as much as it is for me to play so if I gotta spice up the combat I will. And I’ll have all the exploration done soon so if you think about it, the only thing left to do is all story related 😎

I think I’m still at the stage where I want to walk to my destination and then recall back to Ark to sell stuff. It’s been working pretty well for me so far. Thanks for the tips too! I appreciate it. Careful with potential spoilers though :)

@@ProudBeard_ I think he means to Mark where you are and use a scroll to go to Ark, then use Return to keep exploring from where you were... instead of walking all the way back there. It is way more practical to create a teleport point where you can't reach easy, that one that you can go to already.

@@ProudBeard_ Sorry. I thought I was being non specific enough. I'll try to be a bit more vague in future.

@@Ilwenray85 That is what I meant, thank you. That's how I usually use them.

@@jeanjones7396 He just doesn't like tips in general, so watching him (and people like him) can be very frustrating. I get wanting to feel proud of your achievements but dangit xD It also feels less of a dialogue between player and viewer, and more like a monologue in my opinion.

Yeah I had like 4 hours between last episode and this one. Very annoyed I lost it. Sorry. But like I said, nothing story related happened. Just mainly missed my reaction to seeing Ark for the first time. The blade was definitely an interesting deathloop for sure haha that is what took majority of that 4 hours. You would have liked that! And I am going full glass cannon mage. Don’t worry 😉

I’m glad you are enjoying the series so much!! I know I’m probably not playing it the most conventional way but I’m having a great time with it. You are going to catch on pretty quickly that I’m not really good at connecting the dots if the hints aren’t right in front of me. But oh well lol.

yeah.... i probably should have looked around a little more for that secure chest but oh well. It makes it hilarious that i find it so soon after selling all that stuff 🙃

Glass cannon all the way! lol

Yeah so we are a few episodes into the series now, I have decided to really do away with swords and focus entirely on elementalism for the most part. I’m not too worried about messing up my point though. It might make the game harder but I love a good challenge.

Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed the video. A lot more to come for sure!

I appreciate the tips, but I’d like to figure things out on my own. So no spoilers please! And I believe I was referencing the Enderal book series by Nicolas Samuel Lietzau in that moment. I have also found some of those “Butcher” books though! Incredibly interesting. But thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy the wild ride!

@@ProudBeard_ I am sorry, I was projecting hard. Another let's player I recently watched kept nagging about the Phasmalist noise over and over, so frustrating to watch. He didn't care about the bug with the water sources that are loud as hell, but he obsessed over the Phasmalist one. So, first reaction to it I jumped, my apologies. And the same for the books... nobody reads the damn books. The fact finding one triggers a quest should show that the developers expects you know their content moving forward... and yet those players have the balls to make a _pikachu face_ followed by a tantrum when not reading them bites their ass. So, again apologies for wanting to avoid that kind of stuff again xD Edit: Grammar. English is not my first language, apologies for whatever is left.

@@Ilwenray85no need to apologize friend. I completely understand wanting to help. I see it as if I make mistakes, then I live with them. And I like to try and figure things out on my own. If it messes stuff up then it that’s what it does. It’s all about the experience. Or a good excuse to play again 😌 Don’t worry, I’ll let you all know if I am extremely worried about messing something up haha.

@@Ilwenray85 who me? lol.

@@lokithemadtitan Why did you even think that Loki? You read the _Butcher of Ark_ saga, you acknowledge the waterfalls bug, and if you hate a noise it would be the birds. It was a random twitch stream I had in the background, and after a few hours playing he said that he didn't like the changes to Skyrim so I am sure he dropped it ^^U

I appreciate the tip! It definitely took me a while to figure out how important the books actually are in the game so I will pay more attention in the future! Thanks! :)

Oh I am having an absolute blast with this game! It is so well written and such a fresh change of pace. Could you imagine if Skyrim was originally like this? People would have lost their minds haha.

The game was rigged from the start

Kenway totally would have done the same thing lol

@@ProudBeard_ your damn right although he woulda done a sick ass leap of faith before it blew up

Lmao dang… the crossover that we didn’t know we needed 😂

lol She's arguably the best companion!

Besides the crashing every other loading screen. I’m enjoying it too!

@@zilotprotoss4661 Not sure why he was so passive

Very anticlimactic…

I’ll have to do another play through to try that! I think a lot of the dialogue options are hilarious with high intelligence too haha.

But… he won the lottery!

@@ProudBeard_ no kidding, and some wood off my gun runners bat or steel of the katana 😂

Brutal haha 😂

As long as they aren’t game breaking, I love them!

It happens just about every time!

Hey Kabal! I’m glad you’re still enjoying the videos. I still have a few videos to wrap up the 2004 battlefront, but after that there is a small shorter indie game I wanna play and showcase. Then I plan to get into the campaign for the 2005 battlefront 2. And after that, I was definitely going to go into the 2017 Dice Battlefront 2. So it’s definitely coming 😉 Keep up the grind too my friend!

Hey! Thank you so much for the kind words Kabal. I try to make the content that I would enjoy watching as a viewer. I’m glad you are enjoying the videos! Plenty more to come too, keep a look out! 😉
