11:50 Okay but watching Meridia's pathetic little beacon roll down a hill while she angrily yells at you has the same energy as a little kid trying to punch you while you hold them back with one hand.
Oblivion portals opened everywhere you can even find broken ones hidden around Skyrim if you look hard enough. Cyrodili got hit the hardest cause it's where the Emperor and Amulet of Kings were
Ulfric asking the man who slayed him, in complete humility knowing that the war he started contributed in part to his fate, for help because he's "weary and lost" was powerful for a quick easter egg line. I've seen him there before, but never thought to stop and talk. Man..
Oooh! So fun fact, if you kill Sybille stentor for being a vampiric witch, the Elf dude who tells you not to ask questions becomes the new court mage, and thanks you for killing her.
Mmm makes me wonder if he wasnt wagging his tongue cuz he sucks at politics. He was hoping to pique some nosy adventurer's interest that could potentially get rid of her on account of being "an unholy vampire in the midst of Skyrim's Royal Court"
Also what’s funny is when you get far enough in the companion quest where Farkas and Vilkas become non essential you can make either one follow you, attack the other brother, then they’ll kill each other
I wish there was a vampire wave system for when you use blood cursed arrows on the sun. The roads should be less safe, unnamed and random leveled vampires should “come out of hiding” and be more prevalent. And maybe even stumbling across Bandit camps fighting one of their own who’s turned
@@harmonicaman4782 yeah but I wish it would’ve been turned up to 11, almost a naxi zombie wave-like encounter of vampires specifically for the sun blot
Pretty sure the mod was called Dawnbroken or something like that . had zombies, vampires, the whole nine. I combined it with a couple other mods that improved vampire abilities, and a mod that let you control and create more undead and such.
I think the astrid thing is because she has negative health, so that if you heal her she'll go up to 0 and die, but if you damage her, the game will see she has 0 health or less and immediately die from the health damage as well
This is because when you first meet her it’s supposed to trigger the night mother dialogue and the quest to kill the entire brotherhood IF you choose to kill her and not the bound up others but even after the first meeting with Astrid is still allows it to happen. It doesn’t lock you out from still doing it
I personally think she's flagged as undead by the game that way players can't use healing spells to res her and mess up the storyline. Healing spells work in the opposite way for anything tagged as undead, actually dealing damage (really fun way to train, btw). I figure it's a clever and simple workaround for those extra curious players who might think to try and ruin the moment by healing her. Note that I don't have any proof, that's just the programmer in my head lol
Regarding the mission with Frost, you can actually inform Maven of Sibbi's plans and she'll tell you to go along with their little scheme. After completing the quest, you may come across a random encounter where Letrush gets killed by sellswords hired by Maven. If you choose to keep Frost (regardless of whether Maven knows about the plot or not), Letrush will send hired goons after you for reneging on the deal.
You can actually witness the hired hands attempt to kill Letrush, if you can save him there's dialog with him of moving far away and going on the run. I don't know if he actuallly does it or not but I've never seen him since that conversation.
Okay, colour me impressed - I never knew about skill related dialogue when meeting farengar for the first time, and I know A LOT about the game - I've spent hours of UESP

@@Justadonkey and she betrayed her Dark Brotherhood family. But even so, she understood how misguided she was at the end and accepted whatever punishment Sithis had in store for her. In my mind, Astrid doesn’t deserve eternity in the Soul Cairn
Just the other day I attacked some Thalmor who were escorting a prisoner. An entire party of Stormcloak soldiers walked right through the fight and refused to help. Afterward I figured out they didn't like me because I was wearing legionnaire armor. (I was not an actual member of either faction at the time.)
Lmao... Interesting how they actually recorded those lines from Meridia is you dropped the beacon. xD I mean, in the vanilla game it cannot be dropped as it's marked as a quest item. Say whatever you want about the final release of many Bethesda games... But they do add a lot of extra, sometimes unnecessary things, to the games for your immersion too.
Normally you can't ask Jenassa about the kids because her voice actress doesn't have any voice lines recorded for it. A few other spouses have the same issue. This guy was using a mod that restores that functionality but uses voice lines from a different NPC. I think there is a newer mod that does the same thing but uses AI to make the voice more consistent.
12:31 Imma be entirely honest…I never knew that was even a possibility. How the HECK did you drop the beacon? I always was made to keep it in my inventory!
The audio que on the stormcloak thing was so cool. If I experienced that naturally in game id be petrified, espescially since I didn't know it was a thing.
Honestly having so many little details like this, especially ones that reflect your accomplishments in game just makes the game feel so much more immersive and interesting. So many of these lines you might never get to hear in a single playthrough.
You can talk to Maven before stealing Frost, she will tell you to continue with the plan, that she will make Letrush pay for it later (they are lovers)
If you become the guild master of the thieves guild and join the dark brotherhood Delvin will have a different dialogue once Astrid sends you to him to check the elder Counsel amulet delvin will say "You're making friends all over" implying that your not just their guild master You're also an assassin for the Dark Brotherhood.

I like this format without narration. Actually keeps my attention to the screen more instead of getting distracted.
Brynolf calling me a thief when i had never stolen anything and earned all my coin was almost offensive first playthrough until i realized who he was.
I once trespassed into one of the farms around Whiterun while the Stormcloaks raided it. I immediately failed the siege quest and was accused of fleeing my post
"the sky is all wrong" sounds like its from doctor who just kind of has that "are you my mummy" or "who turned off the lights" vibe
Not also Brynjolf has unique dialogue/lines about Sibbi's plans, but Delvin Mallory as well.
Maven, too. In fact, as I recall, that quest goes very differently if you tell her about Sibbi's deal with Letrush.
Youre telling me all I have to do is read alvas diary and instead of trying to kill me she’ll SKIP TOWN?!
I feel bad for Ulfric. Such a zealot in life, but sad and lost once he has a moment to reflect.
