Skyrim Is A Perfectly Balanced Game With No Exploits

- Опубликовано: 10 дек 2021
- Skyrim is a classical RPG game which practically everyone has played in there life. This is partly due to the fact that they managed to port it onto PC, Xbox, playstation, switch and Samsung smart fridge. The list goes on. Anyway today we are discovering that skyrim is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits well excluding the wooden sword and reanu keeves. Today however we investigate how effective going into vanilla skyrim anniversary edition and beating the game using only exploits to skip missions in a speedrun stile, Generate infinite gold, generate infinite armor and become immortal and even finish the entire game!. So today I chose to revisit the game and ask the question. What if they just used fists and high heavy armour to defeat the dragon. and Can you beat skyrim with a unarmed build in one hit because you are wearing 1000 sets of heavy armor? These are the important questions which have gone unanswered for too long! So yes today we are going to break the game with the power of Enchanted and improved heavy armour mixed with unarmed fists!
CHECK OUT THE FULL STORY ON MY PODCAST The Weekly Domestic here: • The Weekly Domestic EP... or on all good podcast platforms
What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.
So sit back relax and enjoy this skyrim challenge! And Skyrim anniversary edition gameplay

You're the best bro love the content so unique
You could also have stabbed Hadvar from behind with a dagger and maxed out your one hand too.
There's no issues with Skyrim, all is well in the world of Todd Howard, haha. *Get's foosed into the sun by Todd Howard*
Nice Video Spiff!
Idk about hadvar cuz i just started watching video but if you go with the other guy you can keep attacking him with no consequences and get your one or two handed ridiculousy high
"Turns out 10 years isn't enough time"
Hey to be fair, the developers found out about Skyrim Anniversary edition at the same time we did.
This made me laugh, thank you.
@@QuackinOut Same.
@@callmeriggy when did we find out? like was there a trailer? i don't keep up with this stuff
"What?! We're rereleasing skyrim again?"
Todd Howard: Yes, but were going to add some stuff. -hands over one paper of the things added-
"....these are just mods that someone else made...."
probably even later
I mean were they really going to fix everything after 10 years. Hey, it wouldn’t be skyrim without the glorious exploits.
They really have become gameplay features
@@thespiffingbrit It just works
Yet the only one I really wanted to stay got patched out. The ogma infinium glitch. Granted it was only useful on the ps3 version as if I really wanna be overpowered I can just use console commands on pc. But still.
@@Guardian-of-Light137
It's just not the same unless the glitch.
Elder scrolls V: exploit simulator
Fun Fact about the starting area:
Once you reach the Bear encounter, Hadvar will sneak and give you a bow. So long as you do not pass, disturb, or kill the bear, Hadvar is now unprovokable and unkillable. You can get behind him and infinitely sneak attack him, for sneak and melee exp. You can* also use magic on him, but you will not get sneak exp at that time. If he's running out of HP, simply switch difficulty to legendary and hack away! You can than leave the starting cave with level 100 sneak, one and/or two handed melee, or even destruction magic. So far as I know, this only works while Hadvar is crouched (sneaking) and works best in the shadowy areas. Still maintain your distance from the bear, as it can and will notice you.
Okay I took all the wrong steps in my legendary character. I hope there’s other ways to do that.
Iirc so long as your in tutorial,hadvar and ralof are invincible and unaggroable.
Quicker to do it right as you enter the keep, kill off the heavy armor guard and steal the key before he does and bam, he cant go anywhere
You can do this right from the start, as long as you don't open the indicated chest. Hadvar will just stand there saying "you should get some gear". His voice lines are even the perfect timer for sneak attacks.
A similar exploit I found is with Feralda in the College of Winterhold. As least on PS4, while she is sleeping it takes about 3 hits in quick succession for her to aggro onto you. Just sneaking behind her bed and attacking her once won’t cause her to become hostile, making it a pretty easy way to gain sneak experience if you missed the Hadvar and Ralof exploit.
My dad taught me the Whiterun and Dawnstar chest glitches the first time I played the game, in 2013. We played a lot games together but Skyrim has always been my favorite, and will always hold a special place in my heart. RIP Dad

"What is the best set of armor in Skyrim?"
Spiff: "Yes"
all of em'
hide toenail covers
Plot armor
My Khajiit with basically a hide skirt and some jewelry tanking everything, save for jumping off the Throat of the World. XD
There are probably still a lot of bugs I never heard about and that just shows how limitless Skyrims possibilities are. An amazing game and it just works
No bugs. Everything working perfectly, as intended. Perfectly balanced.
I just learned that you can collect yourself an army of around 50 followers and creatures, no mods. By starting quests, never ending them, also conjuring and raising thralls and creatures, and giving conjuring staves to followers.
Bethesda has a knack for making things just work.
Top tier programming from them *French kiss*
Theres a 0kb save bug on ps4 that literally makes the entrie game unplayable
Idk how people talk like this about Skyrim but then will attack other titles for less bugs, when they're better games... I completed Skyrim, several times, does that make it a good game? No... They never even fixed the Soul Cairn Elder Scroll bug... A literal game breaking bug that renders the Soul Cairn unable to be completed without mods...
It's almost like bugs in Skyrim = good and bugs in any other game = bad *facedesk* no

Ahhh I see. After losing his first game to glitches, Spif is using glitches and exploits himself to come to terms with his loss. By taking ownership over the thing that traumatized him, he hopes to gain a sense of control over his pain. Very commendable. Very strong.
The exploits have moved beyond features at this point and are practically canon: they'd never remove them. 😁
Nirn is a wacky place.
It's probably in C0da
That's actually true of the giant yeet effect. They fixed that, and everyone complained, so they put it back in.
The problem is they'd have to rewrite fundamental game mechanics to do it and honestly it's not worth it. Given how the vender system works.
Shared inventory/inventory reset is a limitation of the core code of the time and without porting to the fo4 engine it wouldn't change
It just works.

Todd found the money exploit irl
It's not a bug, it's a feature.
Yooo, my man knows nothing until
*Todd gives fans who were dissatisfied with their hundred something collectors edition something equal in return. 5 Dollar Nuka Points card*
Yeah, it's basically just a mod pack branded as a new edition. Granted, they are some decent, albeit glitchy, mods. Still... I was hoping for more of an upres.
@@afjer yeah it is just a few little mods with a 20$ price tag
Lmao
You really just stole a joke from this video. . . You so funny/clever.
He really needs to do a Skyrim VR episode. The pure chaos in that would be amazing
With the mod to grab NPCs installed
I hate that i want another version of skyrim, psvr2 needs it
I think the fact that Todd Howard has refused to fix all the bugs is the reason Skyrim is such a glorious game! Everytime you load up the game its like reaching into a hat pulling out bugs. You never know what your experience will become with each gaming session.

Nope, it's just religious praise.
@@Pudcup That's far less fun than assuming these nutbars are trying to say something halfway relevant, though.
Skyrim is suped balanced. You are suposed to be the dragonborn (chosen one) obviuously you are meant to be this powerful! xD
* "Superman" balanced 😉
@@leyrua nah superman isnt anywhere near as powerful as the dragonborne with prep time
It's literally prophesized that you're supposed to kill alduin
I don't know why more people in prophecies just realize this and do whatever knowing that whatever they do will fulfill the prophecy because it's a prophecy
you joke, but with The Elder Scrolls really weird lore console commands are actually canon. So it could be argued the exploits are too. Console commands are apparently super powerful alteration magic
I can craft a dagger which can one-hit-kill a god.
That's balance!
Todd Howard selling items back to the trader like he sells us Skyrim for the 18th time is just chef's kiss.
PS: Never finished main quest, did all guild quests though.
You're missing out.
my first playthrough I didn't even know that dragons were randomly occurring enemies in the game since I didn't go up to high hrothgar (except to drop off some supplies) until I'd done all the guild quests I was interested in
@Tomáš Nikel ofc its easy if you play on normal mode
Fun fact about dual wielding
Your dual power attack speed is determined by your left hand weapon, meaning that if you equip a mace in your right hand with enchantments and a dagger in your left hand with no enchantments, then use elemental fury, your dual wielding power attack will be as fast as the elemental fury dagger which is pretty dang fast and it'll also mean that your mace will be doing a ton of damage really quickly
The most surprising thing in this video was actually fighting Nahkriin, instead of just walking past him before he has a chance to close the portal
*if it ain't broke don't fix it* its balanced in a way that you as the player got no limits push past boundaries overcome obstacles believe in yourself and become something more don't let limits hold you back
Thats the spirit Todd

Appropriately grammatical.
"Skyrim has been out for ten years."
Could have fooled me. Felt like several decades.
you do? It just makes me feel old. It feels like I played it just a year ago.
same, but thats because I went through oblivion a few times, and then when they released the Skyrim texture pack it all just blurred together.
@@InvestmentBankr for me the blurring was from morrowind to oblivion.
@@GameTimeWhy That doesn't really copy, it was a new engine and serious graphics/style change. Whereas Skyrim is just Oblivion with HDR.
@@InvestmentBankr new engine but the same mechanics.
Yep. I finished Skyrim. On PS3. Where the alchemy exploit made my 3rd play through, that much better. So I was able to one-hit Alduin with a wooden sword, while I wore rags for armour, could carry the world, had effectively infinite health and mana, could breathe underwater, and all the rest.
Once. I beat it once. Hundreds of hours and years later, after i bought it.
HUNDREDS of hours and YEARS!!! HOW DID YOU SPEND HUNDREDS OF YEARS??!!?!?
You know, all they have to do is drop that particular chest a few inches down and no player will ever be able to reach it again.
Well actually you can still reach the chests under the map by falling through the world and stacking entities until you build a path out to the chest. This is an exploit used to get high level spells in the college of winterfell as the chests are under the map
lol., schooled 😂 thought you could out-skyrim the Keanu Reeves?
edit: Reanu Keeves, my apologies
Hilariously, that chest has been fixed in the unofficial patch for literal years, as has the fortify restoration loop.
At this point it isn’t an exploit, it is a feature.
@@Vericentra117 Ahem. That’s Reanu Keeves to you, sir. 😁
This man is the definition of "tough talk for somebody in quick save distance"
Hahaaa
that mf ancano is always in quick save distance. but you don't even gotta cause nobody reacts to anything you do to him lmao
Tested the immortality glitch on xbox. It just works. Keep in mind you cannot stack the same armor or jewelry. Thank you sir spiff for another amazing skyrim video!
Edit: if you stack weapon boosts you need to go to jail one more time or until you notice a significant boost to damage.
I love how the prison armor stacking glitch is actually perfectly logical, in the sense of how and why it works and does what it does as an exploit. I could imagine a random player thinking about it working in theory, then trying it out and being pleasantly surprised that it works. Unlike many other glitches where I feel like players accidentally discover them, this one seems a bit more intentionally found.
"Even though I've played 100's of hrs I've never beaten the main quest" I felt that one in my core
Skyrim in a nutshell
If you never have beatem the gamr then you a noob.
@@JuniorJuni070 only noobs complete the main story in skyrim.
"Why don't they develop technology on Tamriel over centuries?"
Boy, they got teletransporting buckets and walls, who needs electronics with that?
Serious answer because I love the series a bit too much.
They do develop technology. Magic is literally science in this universe. And Skyrim is the Province that hates magic the most. There is no point developing technology like we did on earth if they have an alternative. Without the need there is no inavation. A lot of people look at fantasy worlds and think they lack developed technology. without realising that the magic they have would have completely changed the course of development. Just look at any Dwemer ruin
I'd imagine the dwemer not being a part of tamriel has made it the equivalent of the dark ages but in reverse as without the dwemer magick is the technology of age as nobody is pushing tech anymore
Get these milkdrinkers some gaming pcs
Another semi serious answer alot of the games for some reason actually suffer from technological downgrades because if you look at the lore they used to have things akin to space ships and the numideon which was a giant dwenmer robot and the battlespire which was a giant floating platform in the aether which touched on multiple planes of oblivion and had teleportation portals to multiple places across tamriel. I have seen people theorise it's post apocalyptic due to the amount of things that happened around the time of oblivion with plagues and the moon's disappearing and the oblivion crisis itself but even then they've still gone from space ships to regular boats and horses and carriages long before then. You can probably put it down to the dwenmer disappearance as you can find ruins of airships they had made in morrowind and the dragon born dlc but I do think some of it comes down to Bethesda just forgetting lore
I have completed the main quest 3 or 4 times. My late fiancé never completed the main quest. His last save file was a level 50-something Kahjiit with the dragonstone still in their inventory.
I'm a bit late to this one, but in regards to the prompt at the end of the video, I have indeed beaten Skyrim, on multiple occasions. However, the first time I beat Skyrim was when my whole family was playing it together; my mother, father, brother, sister, and I were all progressing at our own paces. My brother wasn't as excited by the game, so he never finished it. My father is the sort of person to do every side quest humanly possible, even on the first play through, so it took him quite some time to beat the game. My sister is similar, but managed to beat it before he did. But when it came to my mother and I, we ripped and tore our way through the main quest, until we got to the part where you have to fight Alduin at the Throat of the World. I got through with no issues, but for my mother, Alduin was completely invincible, and she could not progress, allowing me to beat the game before her. She got so mad about it she didn't play the game again for some time, but since then she has returned to loving it dearly.

Skyrim anniversary edition
One more time for the folks in the back. Lol
I was scanning the comment section to see if someone would bring this fact about Toddius Vile up. Glad to someone did. ;)
Did you buy them again? I bought regular Skyrim on steam and over the years I've been given the Special and Anniversary editions for free when they came out. Not as in someone gifting them to me, steam just gave them to me.
My brothers were in the back of the car and one went to sleep on the way back from Christmas vacation. When he finally woke up my other brother looked over at him and said "Hey you, your finally awake."😂
That armour exploit looked genuinely good aesthetically
Brit: "The rebellion are a bunch of madlads that dont really know what theyre doing."
America: "Thought I heard something..."
Must have been the wind.
Long live the Empire
Yeah uhh I think that's second place you heard
"sell him his own stuff"
WOW, what a weird glitch/exploit, i never heard about that one before!
8:24 for those who might have trouble getting outside the walls, I timestamped the direction you want to head towards. You may get some resistance but head towards that direction and you’ll see where you can walk under the main wall. Also important, once you get close to going under the wall make sure to keep left and watch for the giant pit to your right otherwise you’ll fall in and have to load your last save. From there just head around the outside of the wall until you get to where he is by the sky forge. Since he cut away I wanted to make sure and add some tips because there are invisible floors underneath that prevent you going certain directions. 👍🏼
Doesnt work bro cant find where to get through
Honestly, on my first playthrough way back when, I legit forgot about Alduin and thought the Civil War was the main story. So I finished that and noticed I didn't get the achievement and was extremely confused for a shameful amount of time.
same thing happened to me with the dragonborn dlc
Civil war should have been the main story. The dragon stuff was eh, but so overpowered.
Damn, didn't know there was such level of detail in the continuity department! In Oblivion there's also an exploit to put on an infinite amount of armor and I just learned that it's also in Skyrim, simply amazing!
fun fact: it's technically possible for the hero of oblivion to be alive for the events of skyrim if they're of an elvish race (and were very young back then, and are very, very old now). So perhaps they just remembered the trick they came across in the oblivion crisis
@@Romanticoutlaw
Or if they are a vampire or is sheogorath.
@@Romanticoutlaw damn, that's a pretty interesting idea!
I distinctly remember one game breaking glitch from Skyrim that happened to me. Brynolf ran, but the guard missed him with the arrow, and I was perpetually stuck in the hell before character creation 😂
His death is scripted, I don't think I've personally ever seen him successfully run away but I have had the execution sequence glitch out in other ways, like Alduin failing to spawn. So I was stuck in place with all the imperials just staring at me in a displeased manner. Felt a bit like a dream of realising that you're naked in class. 😆
@sixstringedthing I may be thinking of a different NPC as well, haha. The one the female guard shoots when he tries to run away. She missed and he got away and I was stuck. Also have been shot up in the air on a horse near Whiterun and died🤣
I didn't see anybody making timestamps for all those deliciois glitches, I had a lot of time to spare, so here there are !
Please tell me if I forgot some or if they are incorrect, I will gladly change it.
(Sorry in advance if i made grammatical mistakes, I'm French and still learning ^^)

"It's super easy, barely an inconvenience"
I love how Hadvar tells you that you "aren't the sneeky type" after you've maxed out stealth. Classic.
And ignoring that he got past so many things just to get there.
same goes to Mercer in Snow Veil Sanctum.
I’ve never been so happy watching a video as when spiffing said he has more ideas on how to break Skyrim 😄
Technically at the spot where you have to sneak around the bear (4:04 you can instead turn around (and it takes a stupid amount of tim) but you absolutely can 100 all of - 1 handed - 2 handed - Block - destruction magic. Before ever escaping helgen. Just fyi for anyone who grinds to lvl 45 before doing any quests.
If anyone wants another time-saving exploit, you can just sprint past Nahkriin, activate his staff while it's still on the pedestal, and hop into Sovngarde.
Ah someone else also mentioned this. I thought we were on a tight schedule and didn't have time to fight ol mummy boyos.
Nah don’t do that, you won’t get nahkriins mask and can’t get konahriks mask which is really good
I did it in pacifist run xd
@@walterdog3603 Uh, he skipped a lot of content anyway so I don't see your point. This was essentially speed run lite.
@@ruukinen no yeah I get that, I mean for anyone else. A better miny exploit in that section is to kill nahkriin as soon as he grabs the staff, loot his body and take the staff and mask then jump into the portal. You keep the staff and mask
It is incredible how the game has managed to stay so relevant for 10 years.
Even spectacularly broken games can be really, really entertaining.
if it worked as intended i think it would have died when they tried to monetize mods
@Jay Leno You mean it can be modded heavily to become either really feature rich but somewhat broken (less broken than vanilla though), or modded to become way more stable while adding more depth to vanilla features? Not to mention it can look really good either approach you take.
Skyrim is a shitty game unmodded, the gameplay is brainless as hell and even though there's a lot to do it doesn't really matter since there's no depth to your actions. Without its modding scene it would be forgotten, or classified up there with Ride to Hell as "shitty games that are memeworthy."
@Jay Leno: So, what I hear you saying is that Skyrim is an unintentional Goat Simulator.
exactly what I've been thinking!
@@eonnephilim852 Skyrim is a great game unmodded. It's very obvious if you're not a brainless sheep
First time I've heard of that armor stacking glitch, although I ran into something similar while doing a little resto-loop for my khajiit puncher. After doing a ridiculous restoloop that let me one-punch ancient dragons at Legendary difficulty, I found that being _too_ broken can be boring as hell. So I was mixing the final result of the enchant boost by having four different fortify alchemy pieces and mixing and matching the level of fortify alchemy I got. Somehow in that mad dash to equip and re-equip all those pieces of armor and jewelry, I ended up stacking two different fortify alchemy rings together, which gave me the exact level of fortify enchant that I wanted. Not sure what exactly I did though as I was only able to recreate the scenario a second time, and further resto-loop attempts haven't allowed me to stack rings again.
idk if it applies to what you're talking about but you know there are a few rings marked (L) for left hand? you can always equip those with a 'normal' ring ^^ -some of them lose their designation after being removed though, so watch out for that.
Why bother paying an intern to fix blindingly obvious simple bugs when you can just rely on the modding community to do it for you.
4:30
You can also max out 1 and 2 handed weapons here just by repeatedly hitting the npc, and if you sneak attack him you can kill 2 birds with 1 stone
and it would lvl up sneak Much faster... 2 hours damn xD

Thank you for this glorious video! I too have not ever finished this game, but I've downloaded it once again, and hope to actually get through it THIS time!!!
Any updates?
These aren't bugs, they're in-universe powers.
In the elder scrolls lore, characters can "achieve Chim" which is when a character becomes aware they and the world aren't real, and either disappear or can manipulate reality around them, Tiber Septim achieved Chim and changed Tamriel from a jungle into a forest
so he changed a big forest into a small one... sounds like just renaming to me
This is the worst interpretation of Chim, and one that really only exists because one guy wrote a series of batshit blog posts.
No, there bugs
Chim is just reality warping in lore
He changed Cyrodill not all of Tamriel
Technically CHIM is supposed to be game mechanics rather than bug exploits.
Another character who has achieved CHIM is Vivec, who describes it as being a player character, being able to save and load games, aware when he dies that he can reload at any time he wants.
I honestly have to say that Skyrim's flaws are part of the reason the game has so much charm. Like, I get why games get patched and balanced after release, but leaving some of this stuff in a single player experience just adds to the fun.
I never realized there was a choice on who to follow in the beginning I only thought there was one way to escape.... I've played this games start dozens of times
Actually the issue they had with the carriage in the intro, was due to how you can pickup bees, as that means bees were objects like buckets and other stuff, so they had collision and flew into the cart and disturbed it that way
I’d love to imagine that this entire run only lasted about an hour.
Where are the speedrunners at?
Oh, under 10 minutes and an hour 30 for glitchless.

@cx you dont pay attention very well
As usual these videos never get old, makes me realize how broken some of these games are and then you go and brake it even further. I raise my cup of tea to you good sir. :D
Fastest way to level sneak at the bear is to sneak attack hadvar, wait 5 seconds for him to forget you're there, and repeat.
I’ve finished it a few times, but it’s honestly more fun (for me) to just go around doing everything else. Doing the main story has a sort of “meh, when you’re not busy…” sort of feel to it.
Spiff, when you're leveling sneak in the tutorial cave, instead of walking into the wall, use sneak attacks on Ralof/Hadvar. You get a lot more xp and you also level one handed

It is legitimately amazing to me how similar the reason for this video sounds. Once the girl I was dating at the time told me she had never beaten skyrim. I Looked at her confused, as I started to ask, "How have you not..." I trailed off after realizing I hadn't beaten the main quest line yet... I have now, but similarly because of that conversation lol.
Surprisingly enough, I've actually learned a few new exploits I'm excited to try!!
Spiffing missed the big first exploit of power leveling sneak and one handed on Ralof at the begining
Side with Sotrmcloaks, when the imperials first run in make sure you loot the key, the Ralof will stand there and allow you to sneak attack him (stick it on legendary so you don't one hit) then power level sneak and one handed in under an hour
You can do it with Hadvir too. Just don't loot the chest, use the sword on the wall.
100 sneak/1 handed/ destruction and you still unlock hadvir as a friendly NPC
I finished Skyrim on my third character. The first got stuck in an endless loop of dragon fights, the second time around I got hard locked in a puzzle room and the third time around I knew what consol commands are and when Lydia decided to disappear into the sky with a quest item, i just generated a new one.
A new Lydia or a new Quest item cause both are important
@@Mystic-Midnight Quest Item. I'd decided that Vilkas is a better fit for the time being. You kinda hold a grudge against a character who naffs off into the sky with your dragon bones and smithing materials.

I love the combination of a bunch of different exploits you've done before into a single video to show us something new. There aren't a ton of games you can do that in since you rarely go back after demolishing a game the first time but I'd love more content like this.
You don't have to do any of the quests up to the Thalmor party. You can ignore everything after Helgen and run straight there, bucket through the wall, and you're instantly set halfway through the main questline.
Was worth the wait. Thank you for the video
"Convince you to buy your own product back to you." So basically, npcs in Skyrim are the modders.
Personally, I managed to finish main quest of Skyrim only after watching Spiff's videos about restoration loop. It was like a walk in a park with these OP 999999999 hp apparel and a stabby sticks for 69000001 dmg
Though I haven't really done the main quests yet, this is exactly why I started playing too, I wanted to be a God.
I've never gotten that exploit to work but I have done the werewolf and undead perk exploits.
@@exodore2000 oh man, it really is easy once you get it. My tips for beginners in this are:
Wait until you have all 5 items with alchemy. You can make them, but they should at least start out double digit buff.
Wait until your alchemy is 100.
Have enough ingredients to make about 30 restoration potions, 10 smithing potions, and 15 enchanting potions.
The above is mostly optional, but for a beginner, this works best.
Save multiple times during this loop. So, if you make a mistake, you don't have to start over completely.
I'm sure the loop is well documented, but here it is anyway.
1. Equip all 5 items
2. Make 1 restoration potion
3. Eat restoration potion
4. Unequip all 5 items
5. ReEquip all 5 items
If items boost is less than 100 return to step 2
If over 100, make a few restoration potions, and a few smithing and enchanting potions.
Then return to step 2 until boost is in the 1000s. Make a few restoration potions and a few smithing and enchanting potions.
When you get to the 1000s of boost, carefully only do it a few more times. Beyond 10000 and up can be bad, and even crash your game. Now make a few restoration potions, and a few smithing and enchanting potions.
All good. You have the means to make lots of fun things, and the potions to do it over again if needed, but start from the middle.
Good luck.
what are you talking about? the game is brain-dead easy. why would you need exploits to beat the campaign? and how boring is it to just walk through the game with infinite health and damage. are you a little kid that shouldnt be posting public comments?
@@SobeCrunkMonster I don't little kids would know what the meaning of Personally is, also who the fuck cares how you beat skyrim or not? i beat skyrim by accidentily doing psb but it was an accident so naturally i made another run and whatnot, And.. Umm.. This isn't exactly an argument is it?
I've beaten Skyrim quite a few times.
Didn't use any exploits or glitches, but watching you makes me want to play it again, only this time I'm going to break it!!! ;-)
For the quick sneak, I like to go to this area in north west capital with the stone arch. There is a space that not only is easier to run against, but no chance of running into any enemies. Also, with more people walking around all the time, the skill gets upgraded faster.
I've never even started a Skyrim playthrough, but I've seen it finished dozens of times (thanks MittenSquad!)
In regards to me completing the game... I gotta admit, I seriously laughed my arse off when you mentioned being softlocked out of progressing the story...
Because that was when I remembered. I never figured out how to complete the story, back in over 10 years ago... That is, because the game softlocked and I was too young to understand it! LOL
I figured that out with the mentions in this video and a little more research :D I really wanna go back and finish the story properly, and I now know what my christmas vacation will be! :D
So, friend… did you make it? Did you get to defeat Alduin, twice? ;)
I watched this literally two hours after finishing the main quest line for the first time in the years I’ve had and played the game and on a save where I’ve already completed every other major quest. I never knew of some of these bugs and it was hilarious as always to watch you play through them
Your videos just made me load up Skyrim Aniversary Edition for the first time 😂
Didn't realize this was uploaded on my birthday. Nice
It's actually faster to sneak and hit the NPC with a dagger. It levels sneak faster, at early levels every sneak attack is 1 skill level
Yes, but you actually have to play the game if you’re doing that - you can just have your character continually autosneaking into a wall while you’re doing something else.
@@williaml840 That is true!
@@williaml840 nah you can do that with a macro no problem, not heavy attacks but light ones
There's also the "sneak-backstabbing the greybeards while they're meditating" trick, which I think is one of the funniest exploits on this game
@@thedarkoverlordofall Eh, there’s always the chance that they’ll move - or glitch out of the way if you try to force them into place.
Man this game literally got me through school. This game and Destiny are my childhood. I love them both dearly
Childhood 🤣
It’s getting me through adulthood..
Hopefully I’ll be playing elder scrolls 6 in the nursing home between rice pudding and getting my mail.
The new "enter" to the Skyforge chest is actually brilliant
love how he says todd howard uses his charms and sells your own things back to you xd for those who already owned skyrim before on ps3 xbox 360
deep down we all know Reanu Keews is the true god of skyrim.
Careful saying his name outside of skyrim!!! Luckily the Anti RK autocorrect saved us this time.....
4:25 actually, when you start hitting Hadvar, you level up the sneak much faster and gain quite a lot of points in one/two-handed (depending on your weapon) as well. He is immortal and won't attack you even if you nearly kill him 10 times in 10 minutes.
Yep, got sneak, one handed and destruction on hundred xD
My dude mastered chim in seconds, I love this.
New-ish to the channel and forgot about your obsession with tea. Literally flicked the kettle on as you said "with your nice warm cup of tea in hand". This was a good experience.
While trying out the multi-equip exploit in the original Skyrim, my game speed got messed up and everything was moving 2-3 times as fast. I don't know what happened, but it seemed like a pretty useful trick for speedrunning.
Not when speed runs use the games internal clock ;)
@Link Floyd That's why they put a timer on for real-time stuff, too.
Spiff: "so here I am playing skyrim for the 740th time"
Those are rookie numbers
When you start to repeat the dialogue before it happens on a random quest. Then you know you have played to many times 🤣
@@steve7189 I feel called out. Been playing since right near release, ps3 first, then 360, then ps4, then xbox one, and finally PC. I ran the numbers back in 2019 and even at that point I had, lowballing, 18000 hours in the game across all consoles and versions.
@@Lunam_D._Roger Bonus points. Play on any 2 devices SIMULTANEOUSLY
7:27 Paraphrasing: Selling you an item you already own, multiple times. That really is classic Todd!
I actually found out about the leveling up sneak to max on my own the first time I ever played, but I did it by sneak attacking Ralof over and over in the beggining of the game. I don't know why I thought of doing that but once I started and noticed my sneak leveling up like crazy I kept doing it for 20 minutes and started my first play through with max sneak lol. I learned multiple glitches by myself without looking them up first it's just that kind of game. Perfectly balanced even after all these years.
I finished the main quest once in about 20 playthroughs. It was my second playthrough and no exploits were used, and not many side quests were completed either. The following 18 were all spent exploring the rest of the world of skyrim.
Video features the most powerful item in all of Skyrim:
The Bucket
Your voice is so relaxing to listen too, I put your videos on auto play and pass out calmly. Figure this should be said
I didn't expect to learn about new exploits in Skyrim after over 10 years
I like how he used one of the slowest exploits for maxing sneak.
yeah, just a few minutes of sneak stabbing your companion in that same spot gets 100 sneak and also high level 1h.
"10 years is apparently not enough to fix skyrims bugs." *The USSEP mod team will remember that.*
Is it really called “Ultimate Skyrim Special Edition Patch”
Their mod actually bugged out my game.
yeah but fuck those guys and their shitty holier-than-thou attitude towards modding and the modding community in general. also... a bug-fix patch shouldn't alter game canon to fit your own opinion of how quests should be.
@@OneLooseGal Last time I check the "U" stood for "unofficial", but after seeing some discussions about some of the contributors "ultimate" seams to fit their ego too
@@lazulenoc6863 it's almost like these things haven't been fixed for a reason and touching them causes more problems than it solves (because coding is a mystical beast that operates according to no logic)
Thank you for a fun video!
I finished Morrowind and Oblivion - but not Skyrim. I got bored when the Blades tasked me with killing Paarthurnax.
Todd Howards convincing a shop keep to buy their own stuff back is very fitting seeing as how I recently just purchased skyrim for the 4th and 5th time... 4th was a gift. 5th was because I only owned 2011 PC skyrim with no DLCs so I wanted to get the full version lol.
I beat it years ago. I played the shit out of Skyrim, the hard way. Sadly, I played it so hard that I can't even get into it enough to try out these GLORIOUS exploits. You have helped share some of the pleasure these amazing "features" provide this game, thank you for sharing these!
