I counted 48 times caltrops was said. 'trops was also said twice so... 49? A lot lower than what I expected, but you also used more than a few creative alternatives to break up the monotonous wording.
someone really counted it I'm surprised i tried to run the video though a transcript generator and it popped up 6 this is by no means right but i bring this up cause the transcript only picked up caltrops 4 times cow traps 2 times and I'm sure there are other variations
God dammit. You beat me by roughly 14 minutes. That's an hour of my life I'm not getting back. But yes, you are correct. I counted around 50, a few being abbreviations.
Shoot i need a legos mod thats just caltrops but with 1 plastic required (or its ewuivalent) that does like 4 thousand damage and the animation is just dumping a bucket of legos at the target area
Character run idea: can you beat Skyrim as a Whiterun guard? - Your character must be one of the generic Nord presets, and just name yourself "Whiterun Guard" - Can only equip the armor (including shield) used by Whiterun guards, and must use the Imperial sword and bow + iton/steel arrows as your weapons. Edit: as someone pointed out in the replies, the axe of Whiterun is also allowed as it acts as a badge of your status from the Jarl. - Cannot use ANY magic ("Go cast your fancy magic someplace else.") - Cannot use the wait function (no lollygaggin') - Absolutely no crime unless required for progression of the main story (with one exception, listed below) - Shouting only allowed for progression (and the Become Ethereal during Bleakfalls because screw that section) - Must join the Empire and progress the story far enough to complete the Defend Whiterun quest (I'm gonna say you don't have to completely finish the civil war questline because I know how tedious it is for you) - Must complete all quests in the city of Whiterun, unless it would force you to break the law Bonus: Not required because grinding for levels might be boring, but should you reach level 20, complete the quest to get the ebony blade (this would be the one time you're allowed to commit a crime- pickpocketing the key- because it's for the good of the Jarl). Take it with you to Sovngard and after defeating Alduin, throw it off the cliff, ensuring it'll never be found and never plague the Jarl and his children ever again.
I like the no shouting rule because of "That shouting is making people nervous." "I'd be a lot warmer and a lot happier with a bellyful of mead." Must drink any kind of mead at least once a day.
@@CausalLoop25 It'd probably be annoying to constantly check if every arrow that hits you is in the knee, so probably not (if there was a mod that instantly killed you with knee shots, though, I'd maybe consider it because that'd be funny- Achilles knee). I had considered banning sprinting on account of the knee injury, but scrapped it from the challenge rules due to it being too tedious to enforce (after such a slog of a video that is this one, Nerbit deserves a break)
I would say you can also use the enchanted blade/axe of whiterun as a weapon if/when you get it, since it's a badge of your station when you become thane, which would be quite the honorable promotion for a guard.
While you were working on this video, I graduated highschool, got enrolled into my dream college, had my heart broken, and almost at the finals for my first semester of college, and yet this is the biggest thing that's happened in the last year thanks.🎉
@@Nerbit13098 how about for your next challenge can you beat fallout 4 with only bear traps. or for skyrim you could do can you beat skyrim with only activated powers (as in those powers you can only use once per day.)
I don't know man. LilGasMask did a BL2 challenge run using only the minimap. This might be a light punch in the face in comparison to a full blown flogging.
Can you beat Fallout NV as a lobotomite? Must wear the lobotomite goggles and jumpsuit or smock. Can use any weapon the other lobotomites us in Old world blues, caravan shotgun, hatchet, 10mm pistol, proton axe, ex. High endurance and strength, low intelligence and charisma. Tagged skills to your discretion.
23:30 Interestingly, Hatchlings usually don't drop meat. However, that one perk magazine giving animal meat loot +1 will change that, giving an incredible source of minced mirelurk!
14:55 normally this suit is accessible actually, and marked as stealing. But it wasn't interactable for you, for some reason. Oh also unlike fallout new vegas, you need a pickpocketing perk to actually let mines explode, including caltrops. With that, they do indeed one hit kill anyone you put it on as it counts as a mine.
9:41 yo Nerbit, for future 4 runs there’s a fusion core in the sewers under concord. It's hidden by some vines, besides the high platform where the mirelurk that lives there is with a raider body
I think the reason why the caltrops didn't work on the atom cats is because you need pickpocket rank 2 in order to put a "live grenade" into someone's inventory. And because caltrops are classed as "grenades" that's probably why.
By my count there were 51 "Caltrop"s, 2 "trops", and 1 occurance each of "jacks, tacks, tic-tacs, and spikes". There was also a lot of "them"s, "the poison"s, and "resources" to minimize the number a bit.
Christmas themed challenge run, Can you beat fallout 4 as Santa. - You have to give a gift (whatever item you see fit) to every child character in the game - You have to recruit all companions as your "elves" - You have to wear Hancock outfit once get as it seems the most Santa outfit I could find. I don't what weapon you could maybe use the cryolater as it shoots ice and that fits with the Christmas theme. Edit: The junk jet could also work, thanks for @ParadoxicWasHere for giving me the idea for the junk jet
The weapon choice could be the cryolater and the walking cane, decorated as a candy cane, but there's only 1 candy cane available for arbitrary reasons, in a relatively tough location... for arbitrary reasons.😂 But for real, Santa needs a candy cane with a sharpened point like it was 1/4 consumed before he grabbed it.
@@ParadoxicWasHere I don't remember if there was any coal in the game. Would be perfect for making sure all the naughty boys and girls get their deserved coal for christmas.
You rarely ever use the items in the couriers stash oftern saying that they are over powered. With that in mind “Can you beat fallout new vegas using only the courier's stash?” You can only use: * Armored Vault 13 jumpsuit * Lightweight leather armor * Lightweight metal armor * Tribal raiding armor * Weathered 10mm pistol * x50 10mm rounds * Sturdy caravan shotgun * x40 20 gauge shotgun shells * Mercenary's grenade rifle * x20 40mm grenades * Broad machete * Five bleak venoms * x10 throwing spears * Four weapon repair kits * Five stimpaks * Three super stimpaks * Three doctor's bags * Binoculars * Vault 13 canteen I would argue that the challenge in this is that you can not use any caps so no paying for repairs, no buying ammo and no replacing anything you use up.
I've said it before and I'll say it again If you can't repair or buy ammo, then this is just a pacifist run with extra steps. The reason the Courier's Stash items are excluded is because they're weapons strong enough to carry you through the entire game if you invest into them right. If you never repair them or buy ammo, then that means nothing.
This run was the equivalent of watching a kindergartener going down a metal slide on a very sunny day. Everyone else ends up watching, but you feel bad for the person going down the slide.
Man you kept us waiting, huh? Honestly this is probably going to be even more painful then the flare gun run... But well done finally finishing this hell of a run!
Nerbit before I watch your suffer, I want you to know that my RUclips recap came in and you, yes you, are my highest watched gaming channel. You are an amazing RUclipsr and entertainer and I love watching your playthroughs.
Lemme know when the “NV as Wallace and Gromit” run is complete. Hopefully soon, since the new movie “Vengance Most Fowl” comes out on Christmas for England/British Isles, and early January for the rest of us. If it released around one of those two dates, that would be great.
I saw the comment about how in base game you cant pick up Caltrops once they are down on the ground and I immediately thought - oh there has to be a mod for that. And they do! Reusable Caltrops! Although that wouldn't have made things any faster or easier....but it would have just helped with crafting hundreds and hundreds of Trops. I don't know if you do mod assisted runs in a can you beat with vanilla weapons. Either way, thank you for your videos! I really enjoy all the different ways to play and enjoy games! And thank you for your time with this video, especially.
Nerbit is back boys and girls It’s feeding time Now I just wish I could suggest a challenge to him, but all the ones I have are painful and for non Bethesda games
*Can You Beat Fallout: New Vegas With Only Holdout Weapons?* By "holdout weapons", I mean weapons you can sneak into restricted areas regardless of your Sneak skill, not advanced holdout weapons that can be brought in with 50 Sneak. This also doesn't include quest weapons like the Missing Laser Pistol that can NEVER be confiscated even if you hand all your other weapons over. Bare fists are also not allowed. These weapons include the Brass Knuckles, Cosmic Knife (clean, super-heated), Straight Razor (Figaro), Knife, Lil' Devil, MFC Grenades, Nuka-Grenades, Police Pistol, Silenced .22 Pistol, Spiked Knuckles (Love And Hate), Switchblade, Throwing Knives, and Tin Grenades. Just so this isn't completely trivial, there are some bonus rules: - Must play on Normal difficulty or above without recruiting any companions. - Not allowed to tag Speech, put points into it, or increase it with bonuses. - Not allowed to wear any kind of Power Armor including NCR Salvaged Power Armor. - Must complete the quests How Little We Know and Beyond The Beef. - Must kill at least one named or unique enemy with each of the holdout weapons, including a separate kill for the unique variants.
I like the idea, but I feel like a lot of these rules just serve to make the run more tedious than interesting (it also requires that you complete multiple DLCs that are unrelated to the main topic of the video). Here's a revised version that I think is a lot more focused: Can you beat Fallout: New Vegas as a gambler? - You can only use the weapons sold to you by Mister Holdout - All New Vegas casino related quests must be completed - Base luck can be no higher than 5 - You can only wear the Dapper gambler suit and hat - You cannot be caught using weapons in the casinos - Either Caesar or President Kimball must be assassinated
@@JapaneseMusicArchive Wouldn't you only need to beat Dead Money, so just one DLC? Also for extra theming, why not call your challenge "Can You Beat Fallout: New Vegas As Mister Holdout?", naming your courier Mister Holdout, making him look like him, and wearing his clothes?
@@CausalLoop25 Eh, I considered it, but I felt it was a bit weird buying weapons from "yourself," and the spirit of the run is more to punish the factions for their lack of security than being Mister Holdout himself.
Seeing this of all runs to pop up at 1AM after a stressful school week is a godsend. Been waiting on this run since high school, congrats on have finally finishing it man
Fallout 3 aa fredsy kruger. Ghoul mask and deathclaw gauntlet, gotta take the mr sandman perk and use it at least once. The only other armour is the prewar wear that includes a sweater Love your videos!
2:38 seeing you scrap a crafting station sent shivers down my spine. I did that once accidentally in ages past, and it was such a pain to recreate it, so many wasted perks, nowadays I make sure to be very careful about NOT scraping them.
Day 2 of asking Hey Nerbit, I think it'll be cool to do a New Vegas run as Mitten Squad in honor of his life and since it'll be almost a full year since his passing I don't know how it'll work or stats or anything but just something in honor of him you know thank you
Challenge run idea: Can you beat the fallout franchise(Main games, 1-4) before everyone in Fallout 1 dies? Famously, in Fallout 1 there was an issue where practically every city in existence was locked on a time limit, and would basically implode on itself due to some form of disaster after a short time period. For however long this translates to in real life time, is how long you have to beat every game.
This video is the equivalnet of throwing legos at someones feet in the middle of warzone and hoping it kills them. Except I'm pretty sure the legos would do more damage
Oh boy here it is, the infamous Caltrop Run. Honestly its a shame that the traps are so bad, cuz a stealthy playatyle with them could be fun. Ordinator lets it work in Skyrim and its a lot of fun there
Csn you beat Fallout NV as Ash Williams? Rules: Take any quest where you kill or screw over any ghoul. Shotguns and Chainsaws only, also you can use a power fist (his robot arm), Work with Mr. House or NCR. Screw at least one woman.
Just place caltrops near the beds of settlers to eventually take them out? Maybe I’m dumb but it’s a thought, and while boring, could work as a alt method to fighting the quests
you know whats really sad? the idea of caltrops, bear traps, and any other potential trap base weapons is really cool, its just done really poorly. Imagine making a stealth character, who before a big fight, sneaks around placing traps all over to really mess with the enemies. It couldve been so much, but bethesda was busy being bethesda
Maybe a mod that gives them bonus limb damage so they specifically cripple targets & being able to pick them up would make them more interesting to use
I honestly kind of hate runs like these, because despite the obvious issues, it does remind me that there are a couple of fun things in Fallout 4, so it almost makes me want to play it again. Luckily I come to my senses shortly after by remembering it is in fact, Fallout 4.
I've no idea why, but the Skooks reference with the deathclaw caught me so off guard I literally barked with laughter. You have made my day, sir. Thank you.
I would ask where your usual vim and vigor went, but it seems obvious. Maybe beating Fallout New Vegas as a Habitual Liar will help get you out of this funk.
5 questions for you to ponder do you enjoy hurting other people? Who are leaving suggestions on your comment section? Where are you right now? Why are we having this conversation? and can you beat Fallout 4 as Jacket from Hotline Miami? i can link the mod if you want, but there is one that recolors the letterman to match the jacket's and adds his mask from payday the restrictions besides only wearing the outfit and mask are: You can only use weapons featured in hotline miami 1 and 2 you must avoid dialog whenever possible. He IS a silent protagonist after all if you can help it, avoid killing innocents. He only kills who he is told to.
Nice to see that Nerbit follows the same exact strategy with Kellogg as others on their nth playthrough: try something different, say “fuck it”, and go back to good ole explosive reliable.
Brother, I can't imagine how depressing it was to throw some trash at enemies like you were feeding chicken, more of that all the grind for steel and food! You are my hero, nothing but the best for you, thank you for your time that was given for our entertainment!
The "Johnny Guitar makes me irrationally angry" run New Vegas run, but everytime Johnny Guitar comes on the radio, you must immediately, without any thoughts and without regard for the consequences, unalive the first person you come across no matter who it is. Any other stipulations or conditions would be up to you. That out of the way March 2023 to now... wow. I quit my job, went back to school, found a new job, rebuilt a friendship, and now am about to graduate college again. Wild what can happen in a year without caltrops.
The determination that you have to finish these runs and not jump on some caltrops yourself midway, has got to be a gift from the 9 divines or a curse from the daedra. Brilliant vid as always
I think the reason why your emperor palpatine run was popular despite being simple is because it's got a nice character identity relate to it while being simple. Like beating fallout 4 as a baker with the rolling pin and your goal is to make donuts(although the donut thing is a stupid creation club thingy sadly)
Hey Nerbit, little tip you probably already know but might make for a nice change of pace to your next minutemen run. You can send up to, I think around 22 settlers to the castle without any mods, this is based on your charisma + the 10 base settlers each settlement can have. After this you can equip them with any armor or weapons you have. You only need to give a settler 1 bullet for a gun and they will have an infinite amount of ammo. This usually makes the castle fight a breeze and a lot of fun in my opinion.
Seeing Skull Face there... "Can you beat The Phantom Pain with only landmines?" Lethal or nonlethal is up to you, but make it so you can only use claymores, sleeping gas mines, and anti-vehicle mines. Exceptions could be when fighting bosses or helicopters, as Quiet and the Skulls would be insanely tedious and Sally would be probably impossible. Maybe still require using explosives only for the bosses as a compromise? You could do it via mission replays so you can actually afford resupply drops and the development of higher-tier mines too.
I've seen you attempt a lot of questionable challenges in the years I've been watching you, but this is by far the most absurd. It's downright masochistic and I don't think I've ever heard your commentary sound so lifeless and defeated. Bravo, Sir
I'm pretty sure playing a sniper build blind would be easier than this run Can we give Nerbit like some sort of award for putting up with this. Its really deserved
Ah yes, the Lincoln runner branches out into Ninja Lincoln runs >_> Joking, of course. I do remember Nerbit mentioning this run in a different video, so I'm ready to witness the suffering!
I counted 48 times caltrops was said. 'trops was also said twice so... 49? A lot lower than what I expected, but you also used more than a few creative alternatives to break up the monotonous wording.
someone really counted it I'm surprised
i tried to run the video though a transcript generator and it popped up 6
this is by no means right but i bring this up cause the transcript only picked up caltrops 4 times cow traps 2 times and I'm sure there are other variations
That's more than 1 "caltrops" a minute
God dammit. You beat me by roughly 14 minutes. That's an hour of my life I'm not getting back. But yes, you are correct. I counted around 50, a few being abbreviations.
@@generalkuros56 "Slightly dirty jacks" was my favorite substitute for caltrops

Ah yes, time for Caltrop and Ball Torture
Finally the "making my enemies step on Legos run"
Ahh yes, the floor is ✨c r i s p y✨ run we’ve all been waiting for 😂
That would have done much more damage
Shoot i need a legos mod thats just caltrops but with 1 plastic required (or its ewuivalent) that does like 4 thousand damage and the animation is just dumping a bucket of legos at the target area
Stepping on caltrops is like stepping on a fluffy carpet compared to stepping on Lego.

Character run idea: can you beat Skyrim as a Whiterun guard?
- Your character must be one of the generic Nord presets, and just name yourself "Whiterun Guard"
- Can only equip the armor (including shield) used by Whiterun guards, and must use the Imperial sword and bow + iton/steel arrows as your weapons. Edit: as someone pointed out in the replies, the axe of Whiterun is also allowed as it acts as a badge of your status from the Jarl.
- Cannot use ANY magic ("Go cast your fancy magic someplace else.")
- Cannot use the wait function (no lollygaggin')
- Absolutely no crime unless required for progression of the main story (with one exception, listed below)
- Shouting only allowed for progression (and the Become Ethereal during Bleakfalls because screw that section)
- Must join the Empire and progress the story far enough to complete the Defend Whiterun quest (I'm gonna say you don't have to completely finish the civil war questline because I know how tedious it is for you)
- Must complete all quests in the city of Whiterun, unless it would force you to break the law
Bonus: Not required because grinding for levels might be boring, but should you reach level 20, complete the quest to get the ebony blade (this would be the one time you're allowed to commit a crime- pickpocketing the key- because it's for the good of the Jarl). Take it with you to Sovngard and after defeating Alduin, throw it off the cliff, ensuring it'll never be found and never plague the Jarl and his children ever again.

You rarely ever use the items in the couriers stash oftern saying that they are over powered.

“Can you beat fallout new vegas using only the courier's stash?”
You can only use:
* Armored Vault 13 jumpsuit
* Lightweight leather armor

* Weathered 10mm pistol
* x50 10mm rounds
* Sturdy caravan shotgun
* x40 20 gauge shotgun shells

* Five bleak venoms
* x10 throwing spears
* Four weapon repair kits
* Five stimpaks
* Three super stimpaks
* Three doctor's bags
* Binoculars
* Vault 13 canteen
I would argue that the challenge in this is that you can not use any caps so no paying for repairs, no buying ammo and no replacing anything you use up.

You poor poor bastard
*Can You Beat Fallout: New Vegas With Only Holdout Weapons?*
By "holdout weapons", I mean weapons you can sneak into restricted areas regardless of your Sneak skill, not advanced holdout weapons that can be brought in with 50 Sneak. This also doesn't include quest weapons like the Missing Laser Pistol that can NEVER be confiscated even if you hand all your other weapons over. Bare fists are also not allowed.
These weapons include the Brass Knuckles, Cosmic Knife (clean, super-heated), Straight Razor (Figaro), Knife, Lil' Devil, MFC Grenades, Nuka-Grenades, Police Pistol, Silenced .22 Pistol, Spiked Knuckles (Love And Hate), Switchblade, Throwing Knives, and Tin Grenades.
Just so this isn't completely trivial, there are some bonus rules:
- Must play on Normal difficulty or above without recruiting any companions.
- Not allowed to tag Speech, put points into it, or increase it with bonuses.
- Not allowed to wear any kind of Power Armor including NCR Salvaged Power Armor.
- Must complete the quests How Little We Know and Beyond The Beef.
- Must kill at least one named or unique enemy with each of the holdout weapons, including a separate kill for the unique variants.
That's just a pickpocket grenades run
I like the idea, but I feel like a lot of these rules just serve to make the run more tedious than interesting (it also requires that you complete multiple DLCs that are unrelated to the main topic of the video). Here's a revised version that I think is a lot more focused:
Can you beat Fallout: New Vegas as a gambler?
- You can only use the weapons sold to you by Mister Holdout
- All New Vegas casino related quests must be completed
- Base luck can be no higher than 5
- You can only wear the Dapper gambler suit and hat
- You cannot be caught using weapons in the casinos
- Either Caesar or President Kimball must be assassinated
@@JapaneseMusicArchive Wouldn't you only need to beat Dead Money, so just one DLC? Also for extra theming, why not call your challenge "Can You Beat Fallout: New Vegas As Mister Holdout?", naming your courier Mister Holdout, making him look like him, and wearing his clothes?
@@CausalLoop25 Eh, I considered it, but I felt it was a bit weird buying weapons from "yourself," and the spirit of the run is more to punish the factions for their lack of security than being Mister Holdout himself.
That's tedious enough i might do that for my next play thru. I'm getting bored with the cowboy run 🤠
Seeing this of all runs to pop up at 1AM after a stressful school week is a godsend. Been waiting on this run since high school, congrats on have finally finishing it man
Fallout 3 aa fredsy kruger.
Ghoul mask and deathclaw gauntlet, gotta take the mr sandman perk and use it at least once. The only other armour is the prewar wear that includes a sweater
Love your videos!
Nerbit, you should beat Fallout New Vegas as Ulysses.
Man from metal cave from the past has son kidnapped. Precedes to torment the feet of all those who oppose him
2:38 seeing you scrap a crafting station sent shivers down my spine.
I did that once accidentally in ages past, and it was such a pain to recreate it, so many wasted perks, nowadays I make sure to be very careful about NOT scraping them.
Day 2 of asking Hey Nerbit, I think it'll be cool to do a New Vegas run as Mitten Squad in honor of his life and since it'll be almost a full year since his passing I don't know how it'll work or stats or anything but just something in honor of him you know thank you
Challenge run idea: Can you beat the fallout franchise(Main games, 1-4) before everyone in Fallout 1 dies?
Famously, in Fallout 1 there was an issue where practically every city in existence was locked on a time limit, and would basically implode on itself due to some form of disaster after a short time period. For however long this translates to in real life time, is how long you have to beat every game.
Oh dang, this run beat him so bad he didn’t even do his outro
This video is the equivalnet of throwing legos at someones feet in the middle of warzone and hoping it kills them. Except I'm pretty sure the legos would do more damage
I can't believe this cryptid of a run finally came out
How you resisted the urge to say 'Pocket sand' when tossing them at people i don't know
The paddle ball run has reincarnated!
I don’t think masochism is even a fitting term to describe this video, bro put himself through the ninth circle of hell.
The Caltrop run is real!
Ngl, these would make excellent Junk Jet ammunition if you could load these into them. It'd be an extremely brutal kill, but it'd be very effective.
Babe wake up, new Nerbit video dropped
Love these challenge run videos. They make me want to continue doing random challenges myself.
Oh boy here it is, the infamous Caltrop Run.
Honestly its a shame that the traps are so bad, cuz a stealthy playatyle with them could be fun. Ordinator lets it work in Skyrim and its a lot of fun there
Csn you beat Fallout NV as Ash Williams?
Rules: Take any quest where you kill or screw over any ghoul.
Shotguns and Chainsaws only, also you can use a power fist (his robot arm),
Work with Mr. House or NCR.
Screw at least one woman.
My pants are soiled
Just place caltrops near the beds of settlers to eventually take them out? Maybe I’m dumb but it’s a thought, and while boring, could work as a alt method to fighting the quests
Legos feel like childish caltrops
you know whats really sad? the idea of caltrops, bear traps, and any other potential trap base weapons is really cool, its just done really poorly. Imagine making a stealth character, who before a big fight, sneaks around placing traps all over to really mess with the enemies. It couldve been so much, but bethesda was busy being bethesda
Maybe a mod that gives them bonus limb damage so they specifically cripple targets & being able to pick them up would make them more interesting to use
Hey it came out !
If Nerbit is not my hero for doing such insane chalenges, he damn well should be
Can you beat fallout 4 with only the nail gun
Spoilers: It’s rough as FUCK
I honestly kind of hate runs like these, because despite the obvious issues, it does remind me that there are a couple of fun things in Fallout 4, so it almost makes me want to play it again. Luckily I come to my senses shortly after by remembering it is in fact, Fallout 4.
He did it, the absolute madman !
❤
Finally, after the clips from the rolling pin run, the full video
2 likes in 3 seconds bro fell off
So sad. 😔
smh ain't what he used to be
Someone called slasher 342 tried this same challenge 3 years ago. He gave up lol
8:06 always love a good skooks reference
I've no idea why, but the Skooks reference with the deathclaw caught me so off guard I literally barked with laughter.
You have made my day, sir. Thank you.
I would ask where your usual vim and vigor went, but it seems obvious.
Maybe beating Fallout New Vegas as a Habitual Liar will help get you out of this funk.
He's finally done it!
You get a RUclips Engagement Credit[TM] via this comment for suffering through this hell, Nerbit. You deserve it.
I used these as part of my Geralt run and decided very quickly that they were not very good. How you used them for a whole run is incredible
Oh I’ve been waiting for this torture.
Alternative title: “masochist youtuber forces survivors of nuclear war to step on legos”
17:10 I've played a few hundred hours of this game and never ONCE have I seen nick do that sweep kick
Oh god, I thought this run would never be ready. Praise to Nerbit!
13:00 "tossing to my heart's content slowly draining them"
steady on mate 😂
Woe, caltrops be upon ye
5 questions for you to ponder
do you enjoy hurting other people?
Who are leaving suggestions on your comment section?
Where are you right now?
Why are we having this conversation?
and can you beat Fallout 4 as Jacket from Hotline Miami?
i can link the mod if you want, but there is one that recolors the letterman to match the jacket's and adds his mask from payday
the restrictions besides only wearing the outfit and mask are:
You can only use weapons featured in hotline miami 1 and 2
you must avoid dialog whenever possible. He IS a silent protagonist after all
if you can help it, avoid killing innocents. He only kills who he is told to.
8:05 I can't believe you made a Skooks reference in 2024 lol. Though I'm not complaining.
Nice to see that Nerbit follows the same exact strategy with Kellogg as others on their nth playthrough: try something different, say “fuck it”, and go back to good ole explosive reliable.
8:06 it's times like these where I wish there was a live Nerbit reaction
Brother, I can't imagine how depressing it was to throw some trash at enemies like you were feeding chicken, more of that all the grind for steel and food! You are my hero, nothing but the best for you, thank you for your time that was given for our entertainment!
The "Johnny Guitar makes me irrationally angry" run
New Vegas run, but everytime Johnny Guitar comes on the radio, you must immediately, without any thoughts and without regard for the consequences, unalive the first person you come across no matter who it is.
Any other stipulations or conditions would be up to you.
That out of the way
March 2023 to now... wow. I quit my job, went back to school, found a new job, rebuilt a friendship, and now am about to graduate college again. Wild what can happen in a year without caltrops.
Everyone say "Þank you nerdbit" for subjecting himself to agonizing rectal pain.
The determination that you have to finish these runs and not jump on some caltrops yourself midway, has got to be a gift from the 9 divines or a curse from the daedra. Brilliant vid as always
I think the reason why your emperor palpatine run was popular despite being simple is because it's got a nice character identity relate to it while being simple. Like beating fallout 4 as a baker with the rolling pin and your goal is to make donuts(although the donut thing is a stupid creation club thingy sadly)
this is the combo of the over encumbered run, flare gun run, and with a slight hint of the shredder run with the power armor
Hey nerbit I hope you have had a good day and thanks for the video today they are a hi light to my day when you most keep up the good videos
Hey Nerbit, little tip you probably already know but might make for a nice change of pace to your next minutemen run.
You can send up to, I think around 22 settlers to the castle without any mods, this is based on your charisma + the 10 base settlers each settlement can have. After this you can equip them with any armor or weapons you have. You only need to give a settler 1 bullet for a gun and they will have an infinite amount of ammo. This usually makes the castle fight a breeze and a lot of fun in my opinion.
Seeing Skull Face there... "Can you beat The Phantom Pain with only landmines?" Lethal or nonlethal is up to you, but make it so you can only use claymores, sleeping gas mines, and anti-vehicle mines. Exceptions could be when fighting bosses or helicopters, as Quiet and the Skulls would be insanely tedious and Sally would be probably impossible. Maybe still require using explosives only for the bosses as a compromise? You could do it via mission replays so you can actually afford resupply drops and the development of higher-tier mines too.
I've seen you attempt a lot of questionable challenges in the years I've been watching you, but this is by far the most absurd. It's downright masochistic and I don't think I've ever heard your commentary sound so lifeless and defeated. Bravo, Sir
I'm pretty sure playing a sniper build blind would be easier than this run
Can we give Nerbit like some sort of award for putting up with this. Its really deserved
Ah yes, the Lincoln runner branches out into Ninja Lincoln runs >_>
Joking, of course. I do remember Nerbit mentioning this run in a different video, so I'm ready to witness the suffering!
