Okay hear me out: Can You Beat Fallout 4 Using Only Power Armor (Pain Train, falling AoE blast, unarmed power armor fists, the Unique torsos that deal damage, etc.)
Legends never die, MittenSquad has just moved on to challenge running heaven. Someday well all get to see how those runs turned out, till then we let him inspire us to do wacky crazy challenge runs.
I love falling asleep to your content, which is NOT an insult, i swear. It's just super chill and entertaining (and i fall asleep fast as hell so I can just pick up where i left off and these videos last for days 😂) Anyway, congrats again on 50k, cant wait to see whatever comes next!
I loved every second of this watching it live, being able to help, and chatting with the community. Edit:if the garden makes you uncomfotable it should, its none other then Ulysses, well his VA actually but still weirdo isnt getting my seed
Fun fact: in both Fallout 3 and New Vegas, Perception does not have any effect on VATS accuracy. The vigor tester says it does, but it is all lies. This was changed in Fallout 4.
Wonderful run once again! If you like insanely hard difficulties, try this challenge suggestion : can you beat Fallout 4 with the prototype railway rifle. (It's a very rare 1 damage rifle that can be obtained by killing a railroad agent that is testing it with tinker tom.)
“Hey I was watching this Willow Video the other day and he began losing his mind and talking like Alchestbreach, it was weird and entertaining, he even sang an The Stupendium song,would recommend.”
Challenge: fallout 4 with only power armor. No weapons. If you run out of fusion cores just have to keep walking in the painfully slow walk of shame. You’d at least have some protection though.
You should definitely do this challenge again in FO4. Would be interesting to see the differences, especially since FO4 has a perk that gives a random chance to refill your AP after a VATS kill
I have been watching you for so long and I didn’t realize I wasn’t subscribed till today. Your content is so high quality I can’t believe you only have 50K subs. Keep up the good work, I will always be tuning in to every video as I have been.
I remember watching the V22 section live. Yeah, that's a seriously tough vault with the way you were doing this run. Enjoyable to watch, but difficult nonetheless. Edit: 19:30 ish PRAISE THE SUN!!! Edit 2: 33:00 ish - I don't know, I like Muggy quite a bit. The toaster is nice though... Edit 3: 35:00 ish - Okay, guess I jumped the gun a little bit. Edit 4: 41:00 ish - Montages and timelapses are fine. They're an easy way to continue showing what's going on, which feels better than a jump cut does, and it doesn't require commentary when it's pretty much self-explanatory. Edit 5: All in all, another fine video Willow. Thank you for the many, many hours each one of these takes. See you next time!
(Idk if you take suggestions for runs but if so I would like to leave it here) Idea: Any Fallout game as a Hunter - No energy weapons - No automatic weapons - Stealth focused - No explosives (Though I doubt you would want to use them after the nightmare that is your Fallout 4 Survival with only grenades run) - (OPTIONAL) Can only sell Meat from animals to get caps - All other rules are up to you, I'm not that great at fleshing out ideas I come up with Edit: I do recognize this idea is quite similar to the sniper runs, but there is a key difference in the fact that all weapons are allowed as long as they aren't Fully automatic or explosive
I just noticed the Aeon Illuminate logo on your sweatshirt and wanted to say that seeing challenge runs of any of the SupCom campaigns on you channel would be awesome! I love your style and think you could do the games some justice, they need more love in the youtube space too!
Someone else has probably told you this already, but "Perception" does not increase your VATS accuracy in Fallout: New Vegas. It only controls how far aways threats are when they show up on your HUD, and what perks you qualify for.
I was very surprised you did not mention using Rocket for the +30 AP, Rebound for the faster AP regen, and using the Implant from Big MT which gives you AP when you eat certain foods. That would have solved some (but not all) of your AP problems. Grim Reaper's Sprint would help of course, but the chems, food and inplant would have been online all the time without needing to kill.
I WOULD have hoped that you would have gotten the "lucky" revolver, which is a BEAST in vats. But then I remembered it's a revolver, and Revolvers and weapons with a Looping animation of reloading like lever action rifles have a bug in Vats that locks you in Vats, unable to move, until you die. Then again, you use mods so... maybe you'd mod that bug fixed
"That Gun" in Novac has basically the same stats as Lucky and doesn't have one of those bugged reloads so that would've been a good option, especially since it uses the incredibly common 5.56 ammo. Seeing a run without these weapons is just as interesting, though
Huh, it took me seeing this video was posted 9 days ago and wondering why I didn't get any kind of notification for it to realize I never subbed to you. Anyway great videos keep up the good work your challenge runs are always a joy to watch, all that jazz.
You say "Older Elder Scrolls" and first thought is of course Morrowind, but does that mean that Daggerfall is on the table? It's a great game but not enough people play it.
8:00 Stupendium hot take: The original version is better than the remake! Personally, in the remake the voices are quieter, the new added gambling sounds are a bit distracting, and the delivery of the chorus was better in the original... There was intentional muffling in the original version, which fit with the "lo-fi" aesthetic of Fallout as a whole, but the remake swapped that for extra audio clarity. (Also I think the delivery of the chorus was better in the original.)
Can you survive as a cult leader (using NPCs and companions as meat shields, high charisma, trying to avoid conflict, etc. I’m sure there would be some other good traits for it)
@@WillowPlaysGames At the time, they were on the Death Star. The Storm Troopers were corralling them towards a single location where they could hopefully be captured. The real issue isn't that they're bad shots, because they aren't, it's that they're dumb as shit. But that's what happens when you go from clones of a Mandalorian to random dudes from across the galaxy.
I did this not long ago, a friend of mine challenged me, and i provided, i hated every seccond of it, i used some mdos but most of them inconsecuential to this run, except for one that makes VATS load quicker, i hate to spend 5 minutes for it to try and load the targets
If you ever do a clean save run of the ME trilogy on Insanity, dont do it as an Adept. This isn't a reverse psychology thing. Im genuinely serious. I did it and it was PAIN
What is your level of familiarity with FNV? It seems you "forgot" way too much for a challenge run format just saying. Still kind of entertaining, but definitely frustrating to watch the level of mistakes...unless they were intentional for trolling...not really a troll enjoyer though.
there is no barrier to entry for challenge running. and I don't have to play optimally or do the most meta amazing strategy. The idea that people need to be walking encyclopedias about games is just silly. I'm not sure which mistakes you're talking about, the only thing I forgot was benny running to Caesars fort and that's because I don't normally skip to Vegas so I just kill him in Vegas with the gear I gathered getting there. I don't play to min max these games, it makes even challenge runs boring for me.
@@WillowPlaysGames I think there should be some form of barrier to entry as if not, every first playthrough of a game would be considered a "challenge run". Challenge runs typically have self imposed difficulty however, through knowledge or luck tend to show a different way than most play the content, hopefully to completion. But that's an opinion just as is your first sentence. Now as for what you forgot, the great Khan's shot at you due to wearing NCR faction armor, you realize this with Caesars legion but not the Khan's. And yes there's you then forgetting that Benny leaves the strip when confronted. These mistakes or forgetfulness just made the first third of the video seem off. And I couldn't recall any of your Fallout 4 videos seeming this way hence the question of your level of familiarity.
The barrier to entry is the self imposed rule set. Yes, your first run of a game COULD be a challenge run and it is just as valid as your 100th as long as you are consistent in your rules. But that doesn't mean your first playthrough is always a challenge run because you don't have the self imposed rule set. I have and will challenge run games I have never beaten before. My first Skyrim run was my first time beating the game. It's still a valid challenge and does show a different way of playing the game. Just like in this run, most people don't sit around waiting for their AP bar to use vats when they could just shoot the guy in front of them.
Idea for challenge run for fallout run but bash / freight train (power armor) run please 🙏 but awesome work brother love your updates on quality looks good

how about a one-handed only run in whatever you choose and you name them 'one-handed' Obi Herrera
Happy birthday my dude
11:59 the Khans attacked because you were wearing NCR armor, during a standoff between Khans and NCR
Okay hear me out: Can You Beat Fallout 4 Using Only Power Armor (Pain Train, falling AoE blast, unarmed power armor fists, the Unique torsos that deal damage, etc.)
sounds like a genuinely fun run
Yes you can I'm absolutely certain it'd be tons of fun too
I loved the stupendium reference. That is my favorite fallout song lol
For blowing the BoS without being attacked you can:
1. Set the self destruct up without any costume
2. Pop up a BoS outfit
3. Get the F out of there
I swear every Fallout challenge runner i find has been inspired by MittenSquad. He was a legend.
RIP MittenSquad.

can't wait for a only Sierra Madre items run
Ah it finally arrived I'm excited to see the final result
hope it was up to the expectations!

Survival as the Mad Bomber?
We all know it can be done, I've done it but it is fun! When its not frustrating.
Wow, I comment and before I can edit you loved it! Thanks!
I would like you to do all the dlc too, I personally found the Explosions to be cathartic.
Oh and if I have to venmo you as a incentive I'm totally down.
You're worth it and I have no qualms paying you for quality work and fun.
all challenges are decided by my channel members, I add suggestions to a list then pick 4 to be voted on. ^^
thanks!
Just for fun you could keep count of how many times the game crashes. 😂
Suddenly HD willow avatar caught me off guard
:D was the plan lol
“Hey I was watching this Willow Video the other day and he began losing his mind and talking like Alchestbreach, it was weird and entertaining, he even sang an The Stupendium song,would recommend.”
Just the perfect video to top off my birthday! Thanks Willow :)

Paul from mitten squad died if you didn’t know
I'm aware
It's funny you mention Stupendium, found The Fine Print not too long ago, great stuff.
Dang it willow, when you started saying the house always wings song lyrics i started laughing my ass off, i definitely wasnt expecting it
:P glad I could get a giggle
Every time i see house i think of that song. And it low-key made me smile knowing other people like the stupendium too!
Amazing vid as usual
Glad you enjoyed
45 minutes of enjoyable content- Thank you Willow!

@@WillowPlaysGames yes, I comment as I watch. I don't always catch Livestream, so this is my way of "giving feedback as it's relevant."
I appreciate your comment, it just made me giggle so put lmao, thanks for leaving something like this and I'd love to see this on other videos!!
Great to watch with my fish and chips
(Idk if you take suggestions for runs but if so I would like to leave it here)
Idea: Any Fallout game as a Hunter
- No energy weapons
- No automatic weapons
- Stealth focused
- No explosives (Though I doubt you would want to use them after the nightmare that is your Fallout 4 Survival with only grenades run)
- (OPTIONAL) Can only sell Meat from animals to get caps
- All other rules are up to you, I'm not that great at fleshing out ideas I come up with
Edit: I do recognize this idea is quite similar to the sniper runs, but there is a key difference in the fact that all weapons are allowed as long as they aren't Fully automatic or explosive
Hey!!! I got a shoutout well screenshot of my syringer comment. Keep these challenges rolling man!
The khans in Boulder City were likely hostile due to you wearing an NCR uniform (if you were still wearing the one you looted earlier)
I just noticed the Aeon Illuminate logo on your sweatshirt and wanted to say that seeing challenge runs of any of the SupCom campaigns on you channel would be awesome! I love your style and think you could do the games some justice, they need more love in the youtube space too!
I have a second channel where I made over 300 videos about supcom forged alliance. look up willows duality
Been waiting for this one! Hyped.
Mitten squad did this challenge in fallout 3 off of my recommendation in his discord, RIP the goat, glad to see someone else do this challenge
Fallout needs more NPC’s like the toaster and Muggy that take one personality trait and run just far enough with it.
Dry bread sees his audience as dollar bills, not people. He slips up too often and trash talks his own people.
Thanks, this is an amazing video to start off my day.

New avatar looks sick dude, nice to see another one of your videos in my feed
Glad you watched!
12:13 Bosh pack, smoke em if you got em?
Just letting you know for future runs, perception doesn't improve VATS accuracy. Or just accuracy overall.
I see the mahdrybread inspiration, keep up the good work
Neither god knows how I love your montages
I'm glad you enjoy them so much!
You say "Older Elder Scrolls" and first thought is of course Morrowind, but does that mean that Daggerfall is on the table? It's a great game but not enough people play it.
Vats is great in 3 and NV. You've got this!
Ive been waiting for this one! Lets goooo ❤❤❤
Can you beat fallout with only nukes (fat man included)
RIP MittenSquad. We moss you Paul and you're never forgotten
Dude...
Awesome segue my man.
thanks!

Wake up babe, new Willow video dropped!
i would 110% watch you do a mass effect run
Been waiting for this one for awhile let him cook
thank you for showing me on screen!
you're welcome!
Have you considered doing a full SMG/Silver Shroud run?
yes I have!
I started off with mitten squad and discovered jabo some time after but man he's the only good thing to come from the British in idk how long lol
Can you survive as a cult leader (using NPCs and companions as meat shields, high charisma, trying to avoid conflict, etc. I’m sure there would be some other good traits for it)
I have a run for you :fallout 4 but a random enemy spawns on you every 3 minutes
Out here got mr.house soundin like mr suess
Love automatron too but nuka world added the handmade and finally fallout 4 had an assault rifle that didnt take up 90% of my screen space
increase your fov lol
I cast my vote for a 75% reduction in montages!
Love the new look willow.
thanks!
Can you do a only bashing run? its under rated but the bash ability later game does a lot of damage. Please and thank you
😇
...Did people forget Luke was supposed to be taken alive?
Who wants to be the guy who killed the rebel Vader specifically ordered captured?
if I'm about to be murdered by a jedi I'm gonna try and hit him, that's self preservation.

:)
What is the montage music?
rip and tear from doom and the other is uh... forgot the name tbh
I fell like you like this challenge I think of can you beat fallout new Vegas or 4 but only using energy weapons
Does the use of the rifle on the cans at goodspring count?
no, I didn't deal any damage to any enemy.
…remember… you’re never alone…
So I get the doom song is one of the montage songs but what’s the other one? Anyone know?
Ethan Meixsell - Thor's Hammer
I would love if you did a alien weapons only in fallout 3 new vags or 4
Either this is super easy or makes you wish for a nuclear winter

guys we have a picture of willow’s yard therefore we can find his adress, cmon guys get to it
good luck!

I just wanna know if Mary's Crafty Kitchen is good
Montage of montages when? Or montage of montage making?
we'll see!
Enjoyed the video but a little bit too much montagery, I think it's the music that gets a bit irritating.
RIP Mitten Squad
are you into any other genres? or just first person rpgs?
I love RTS games and strategy in general.
Dude, that was black veil brides, right? The second montage.
Nope, was Thor's hammer a copyright free song
@@WillowPlaysGames damn it's very similar to knives and pens
Let's goooo Wilow! ❤❤❤❤

fallout vats only? sounds like a regular play through lol
Day 2 of asking for a ripper/ harvester run only
Yeah this is possible
ItsJabo is funny, but I like your vibe better. Ill take a WIllow over a Jabo any day.
It's not a competition in my eyes, but I'm glad you like my vids so much!
