- I discovered one of my new favorite channels on RUclips, and I had to share it.
Channel:
/ @gamesonhardmode
Videos I show clips from:
• What if you only used ...
• What if you could only...
• You probably didn't pl...
“I watched one… I watched several more.” That’s this channel for me.
Hi everyone, it's me Tim
We did it everyone. We got Tim Cain in the Bethesda challenge RUclips pipeline!
There was a guy roleplaying as a "Torso" in Kenshi: NO legs, NO arms. Kenshi is alegedly great for roleplayimg. Its a sandbox rpg game with no quests but great systems. Lots of cool RP Kenshi videos.
There's a guy who played the entirety of FO:NV as Christian, devout christian. He never stole, never swore, never killed, always abided by the 10 commandments, and somehow got to the very end, it's just amazing to see. (authentic animations channel I think)
So my most recent Fallout: New Vegas playthrough involved me playing a character named 'Raoul Duke' and cranking my Charisma stat to 10 (because Charisma effects Companion Nerve), my only skill was Speech / Barter and I let E-DE and Veronica handle the combat because my Character's entire goal was nothing short of being the wastelands biggest degenerate junkie gambler. I would load up on chems / alcohol, walk up to people and ask to play Caravan and go into the Casino's and gamble my ass off and sometimes ... sometimes I'd get shredded by a deathclaw.
I like Gopher’s let’s plays. He role plays in a very immersive way. He only really does quests if his character in universe hears about them or if he has a narrative framing device for the video. He does the let’s plays basically entirely in character
Running a dnd campaign was the first time I got to see this in action. The best ideas happened when boxing in the players or allowing them to have permanent flaws, and seeing what crazy ideas they come up with to get around them. Definitely a case of 'art lives from constraints and dies from freedom.' So much more fun to watch then letting everyone become superheroes.
Good morning Tim! Bethesda games actually have a good challenge running scene, with RUclipsrs like Ymfah, Joov, ItsJabo, etc. All super funny and use such creative ideas for how to interact with the gameplay elements. Ymfah actually completed Skyrim without walking at all!
A role playing channel that I like is Jacoby Wakeby. He does Skyrim and he doesn't do challenge runs, as much as he does role playing runs, Skyrim as a woodcutter or as a fisherman... he really goes into what it would be like to be a regular person working a regular job living in the world of Skyrim. His characters aren't big heroes, but he does dive deep into daily Skyrim life.

TIM: "I'm retiring."
Hahahahahaha! Alison Chains! I'm fucking sold right there hahahaha.
You did a great job promoting this guy's channel, showing clips to gain interest but not too much that you don't have to go to their channel to watch the originals like, cough cough, react content.
This is the same reason I like watching Gopher's playthroughs, super involved, tons of character background, creates stories and arcs for his character and plays them out and is witty as hell to go with it. Not quite as "memey" as picking one skill but more like he creates a very realistic character for games universe he's playing in. One of his Skyrim playthroughs had him not become dragonborn until halfway through the series that consisted of many chapters.
I highly recommended you the channel Rycon Roleplays, I'm sure you gonna love his channel. He immerse in the roleplay waaaay more than anyone i've ever seen in youtube, it's basicly an fusion between an actor and a let's player .
SorcererDave is my goto for this type of content. He even has a series where he roleplays Rome: Total War 2, writing an entire backstory and cool intros for every episode. Worth the watch
I remember in college, after playing FO New Vegas the umpteenth time, I decided to role-play as a guy obsessed with personal property rights. He wouldn't steal, loot corpses (stuff belongs to next of kin), and he wouldn't pick up anything that could conceivably belong to another person. He would also refuse to do quests that involved any kind of theft. It was the most fun I'd had since my first playthrough.
So glad you discovered one of my favorite channels! Gamesonhardmode really GETS the unique story telling potential of RPGs, even if the way he does it is super silly
I love Tim's genuine enthusiasm for gaming.
