Tears of the savior is one of the best quests! I mean, sure, its actual realization could have been better, because finding those damn white tears on damn white snow was a pain in the back, but in terms of backstory it felt pretty deep and touching, not just the casual "fetch item-earn prize" that you forget after one hour of gameplay or so. I still remember it to this day.
A lot of Oblivion quests were similar, in terms of memorability and impact. Like that one fighter's guild quest where you slaughtered goblins, but were actually ordinary villagers, for example.
I still remember it too, but for all the wrong reasons.
Finding the tears pissed me off so much lol, but the quest itself was really cool
I found out about Lovecraft through "Shadow over Hackdirt".
I don't think the "Jumbo Potato" quest is bad, it's not interesting, but it's so short that it's kind of hard to be mad about how anti-climactic it is...
+Dangerous Mermaid ya that's how I felt when I played.
Dangerous Mermaid. Try telling that to true review.
I remember it fondly because for me it was the first time in the game I've encountered and killed an ogre.
It's funny when your a low level, it's like 'oh this has got to be just a bandit or a goblin.....OH NO!!'
The best thing is if you're high level.It's like you are the fighters guild master the arch-mage the grand champion of the arena the hero of kvach the frickin champion of cyrodiil and you walk to this place and it's like hey man mah jumpo potatoes pls fing them, best thing ever
I don't know about you, but I love quests like this! You're just wandering around going into inns for a nap and a drink. Talk to a few people and they ask you for help with something. You go out to get what they want and they come back with an award!
I think the Tears of the Savior had protental, if it had allowed you to free Garridan from his icy prison. I felt the same about Jiub in the Soul Cairn. He was a saint after all. He deserved a quest that freed him and ascend to Aetherius.
Ulysses ThePagan Unfortunately, soul-cairn is a one way.
That Ogre's teeth was 75 gold...and you just left it there!!
That's a habit that most people do lol
Fuck man I killed a bunch of them and didn't realize that haha.
@@Anastasia2048 The only annoying thing is the weight of it, I don't like carrying it
@@ardensity1175 I'm a mage and I can't carry much. Looks like I'm gonna have to buy the house in Anvil to store my shit haha.
@@Anastasia2048 Just buy the living room for frost spire and there ya go
Remember the image of the squirrel yelling "Noooooooo!" That was me when he was jumping around on the mountain with less than half his life bar.
3:16 “Oh my goodness! You found them! OHHHH! I could kiss you!”
Cantina: “Please don’t...”
I dunno.... I beg to differ! It could be a platonic kiss.....
Aw who am I fooling? Gimme some sugar kitty cat!
She totally jacked up the price of those frost salts knowing they were important to you.
It was actually kind of cool how there were text boxes describing the situation when you enter places. Sort of a throwback to text adventures.
When you thought you knew everything in oblivion after 12 years... well no because jumbo potatoes are apparently a thing
I feel the same way. I could've sworn I've done every quest in the game at least once and nope, I clearly missed something haha
Missy Anne it's one of those you stumble across like a sirens deception in anvil. Sorry it took me so long to reply. I live in Scotland and I guess your in the u.s so there is a time gap
The jumbo potatoes is one of my favorite quests lol it’s so stupid but I’ve always found it’s pointlessness entertaining. Even with oblivion gates opening around all of Tamriel you still manage to find this lady her potatoes and snack on some hearty potato bread lol
"Look at how spread out the trees are - soil is crap!" 😂😂😂😂 ded lmao
+CasualJoe haha
Think you could do a top five quests in morrowind?
I remember being about 11-12 when I first stumbled on this quest and it made me laugh my ass off cause it seemed like such a spontaneous activity.
we were doing a play at school where someone hands me they're homework(shopping list) and it just has a picture of a huge potato on it.
There's 2 kinds of gamers.
1. Those who take time and listen to every word, and read every single thing, etc
2. Those who rush thru and have no patience.
I'm a #1 kind of player.
When I read reviews on steam and someone says "but the game is too short, I finished it in 3 hours, could be longer" I know for a fact I'll finish it in at least 5 hours, because I play very slowly haha
I'm kinda surprised you didn't just spawn some Jumbo Potatoes in front of you by using the console commands.
Player.placeatme
Even if you spawned them, the jumbo potatoes are almost certainly just regular potatoes with the name “jumbo potatoes” lol
I might be one of the few people who likes the Jumbo Potato quest. It's like Monty Python were told to make a sidequest for Oblivion in thirty minutes. It's just so silly! I mean, why did a Khajiit would own half a dozen enormous potatoes? Khajiits would be carnivores! And why would an Ogre stole it? For its soup? What kind of posh Ogre is that Ogre? And how the hell did it knew the existence of some jumbo potatoes? How did an Ogre stole potatoes, anyway!? And how in the name of Akatosh did the Khajiit turned those potatoes into bread!? This is CHIM on work!
Edit: She can even SENSE those god-forsaken potatoes!
Good god, watching this makes me want to boot up Oblivion for the first time in nearly 12 years.
This made me want to play Oblivion, thanks
I like this quest a lot because of how ridiculous it's premise is
Wow.
Cat's Cradle. Didn't know a Vonnegut referemce would crop up in an Oblivion video.
Truly; Cantina is a man of culture.
Love your videos man, you got me into the elder scrolls series (have never played any before). Keep it up bro
Yeah Bethesda was lazy with making the jumbo potatoes.
Amazing video!!!
I wasn't even aware of the Potato quest, I remember having to do the end of 'Tears of the savior' over and over because the tears kept getting knocked under the rock making them inaccessible. :(
The jumbo potato quest seems like a developer test quest just for testing the quest scripts for the creation engine that they forgot to remove. Just how short and straight forward it is seems like it was meant to test a quests stages. Script 1:talking and recieving quest from npc. Stage 2: recieve location with item or enemy that has to be activited/killed. Stage 3: Return to quest giver. Stage 4: completion and recieving reward.
Though while that might be a possibility i don't think thats the case, seeing as how they probably would not have a voice actor record lines for a script testing quest. However it could be a development test quest that they later just chose to keep.
Its also possible that it is a reference /parody of the quests in Morrowind that were alot lf times pretty much like that. A quest giver would have you collect something or eliminate an enemy with no twists or turns for story telling purposes. The morag tong questline for example is just "hey kill this guy, hes in this district of this city/town". Then you go there and kill him. Or other faction quest lines where they tell you "go deliver this for me to this guy in this town/city", then you get there and the guy takes the package and goes "thank you".
I killed a random ogre it was carrying these mysterious weightless jumbo potatos, i talked with so many people especially all the greatest alchemists, but no one knew anything. I slowly gave up and forgot. After all the main quests and many more were completed. The game got old and I stopped playing for years.
I came back for nostalgia, saw the potatoes in my inventory and remembered. This time i was determined to solve the mystery. With 200+ speed (Thank Thalos for restoration) i searched high and low. I asked everyone "Have you lost some potatos?" "What?" and i was gone faster than the wind. When i finally found that damn khajit after hours of searching I screamed YUUUSH! Easily the best quest of the entire game for me
11:15-11:32 this whole segment upset me…
That poor horse.😢😢😢
ah yes the most rich and thought provoking of all of the quests
I liked the quest. It is not epic one way or another, but it gives the place a lifelike feel. Unimportant people with little problems that are huge to them! And you can help out. That is emotionally satisfying.
I sense a great potato in the force.
Don't mind me just having an existential crisis as I realized oblivion is 15 years old
watched your videos while Oblivion was installing, ready to dive in!
Amazing location for alchemy ingredients. Thanks Mason!
this video went from jumbo potatoes to existential despair trapped in the unholy void really fucking quick
The quest that you need to get 5 West Weald Bear Teeths is also very bad
If you go back to S’drasa before you go to the cave. He will give you some special potions to guard you against the cold.
It’s my favorite quest because of how funny it was but the ogre caught me by surprise
I liked the Garridan’s Tears quest. I think I did that before even doing that town’s recommendation quest.
Your the greatest youtuber you are the king
Aidee Perez- Medina. Of oblivion.
Fun fact, potatoes can grow in most soil.
“Give them some sun...” Is she trying to poison people?!
“Frost salts make you resist fire which doesn’t make any sense”...what lol 😂
Love the intro feels like I had a stroke
Oblivion is literally gold compared to how shitty Skyrim is. I don’t remember any fun quests from Skyrim
Dylan I agree Skyrim is definitely missing something.
I enjoyed Skyrim when I didn't know the game and didn't fast travel or use the map. After I became a werewolf and woke up near riften I got lost, ended up in a mining prison and found sheogorath after drinking with a stranger in the pub. 10/10 would do again. But it is the only fun way to play the game really
im pretty sure i remember that potatoe bread quest, but freakin hilarious to see it again... elderscrolls is pure gold sometimes
Ok guys, see that subscribe line? Let's turn that K into an M
The Jumbo Potato quest was just funny as hell lol
It’s not that it’s bad, it’s that it’s so short and simple. I think they could’ve made an interesting or even a funny quest about a thief. But we got this.
why are you jumping every were 🤣🤣🤣 you making me want to play this again
It took me 3 days to kill my first Ogre when I was an Oblivion noob.
I personally love that quest jumbo potatoes
What also makes the Tears of the saviour quest kinda sucky is that Garridans quest didn’t make much sense because in the elder scrolls lore mages are capable of creating water with magic (as you can read in the in game book disaster at loneth) so it was kinda pointless him looking for the ewer in the first place
19:22 *"Ooohhf."*
Just did this last night. Ogre was dead when i found him. Good quest
Knights of the Nine is my favorite series of quests and storyline.
This quest is the best quest, if you don't like it then you're something else.
These vids are amazing but the way he is so negative to almost any NPC😂
1:57 Eh, those potatoes could grow there. Potatoes could grow in Ireland considering their soil is utter garbage, they could grow them, until you know
old comment, i'm not expecting a reply, but for the benefit of anyone else reading: this comment is factually completely wrong. ireland's soil(s) have historically been very good (and the famine had less to do with poor soil-although intensive farming does lead to soil degradation-than it did with fungal infection and indifference (or "mismanagement")) by the government in westminster)
@@fawnieee i think it's just a case of wanting to appear clever on the internet. of course, nobody knows you on the internet, so it's not as if you're getting any social cachet… but equally, nobody knows you on the internet, so you're not likely to lose anything if someone points out your bullshit.
"better to be silent and thought a fool, than speak and remove all doubt"
You really cooked it with your words at the start there mate
Subbed.
You forgot the nirnroot quest! Man I wish I had a copy of oblivion to play!
That quest is the worst quest in the series.
It said you can buy potato bread for 25 gold.
JUMBO POTATOES
What class is your character just curious ^.^? Like what skills have you chosen to major!
11:31 Step-rider help!
Pretty sure the tears would melt if they were anywhere out of the freezing zone :D
I was just about to make that S'drassa quest. lol
This is my favorite quest
When i saw where the jumbo potato quest was i loaded up the game and did it before watching... i was so disappointed lol it should have been an epic journey searching for jumbo potatoes but it was just 2 seconds into the forest, kill and ogre then return :(
Poor Horse...
3:25 for some reason the cat person looks and sounds like Whoopi Goldberg from Star Trek: The Next Generation. LOL
The only thing more valuable than gold is cocaine
can you do the quest: a rat problem? :D
I thought it read right there that potato bread would cost 25 each.
S'drassa is general greaves
Soil? More like... Bad... Yeah...
hell yea
I found the jumbo potatoes in Skyrim. 🤣🤣
Try stealing it from her after finishing it

Quests in Oblivion: *fInD mY pOtAtOeS*
I have to admit I never did a whole lot of side quests when I played Oblivion. Given how terribly Bethesda programs their games, it's a good thing I didn't after all. In any case, if you think the way locations are set up in Oblivion with some questions are illogical, boy are you gonna love the way Skyrim does it. We're talking about impossibly large glades and caverns and whatnot that just don't appear anywhere in the main world, but are somehow in the depths of caves and whatnot. And it doesn't matter how much you noclip. It's still not gonna make an ounce of since. Like I said, Bethesda can't program for shit -- but the way they plan out the locations don't make much sense either.
Dunno id kinda kiss a khajiit
OWO
w
I cant see shit
