  • This channel is still really small. I'm trying to grow and improve as we go so I appreciate anyone who watches the video and I really appreciate all constructive feedback.
    This video was recorded before I just got myself a capture card so the quality isn't as good as future videos will be.
    Thanks for watching!
    Embark on an epic Skyrim Ultimate Ironman Challenge, where survival is an art and every victory is hard-earned. Inspired by Joov, watch as we navigate Skyrim under the most harrowing conditions: Expert difficulty, no fast travel, and a life sustained by the wilderness itself. From crafting our first weapons in Riverwood to facing the unknown dangers lurking in Bleak Falls Burrow every day is a testament to skill, strategy, and perseverance.

    2:05 - We've gone back and forth a few times but usually I've settled on...if it's craftable it's not lootable...so potions we stick to making along with smithed bars BUT to each their own with however they want to take this on!
    This was great to watch. So fun to see other strategies. LINE ON MAP + MINING MONTAGE HAD ME HYPED

    Every time i play survival mode, i always finish Mirak first. Bend Will is the best shout in the game. Telling a dragon to gtfo anytime or riding him to fast travel wherever you want is just so good. The questline is also pretty quick.

    Considering that a lot of enemies don't have armor and the critical damage is bugged the best choice if your making your own weapons is axes as the bleeding effect should work on enemies (i forget if its like the absorb health enchantment that doesn't work on dwemer robots)

    i think its way easy in skyrim to get things with crafting done then the other way around
    no crafting no npc trading, except from dialog purase aka housing, horses and quest related
    only living from things u kill and earn by paying the blood price
    btw no spells legandary survial "only cooking allowed"
    also thier are easy ways aournd this like "ring of namira" Vampire Were'wuff' heart feast marrage and get 1 free cooked meal per day
    ahhhh Skyrim so many options for exploits..... but crafting is to easy .... sorry

    • @DSQ_Jake
      @DSQ_Jake  6 месяцев назад

      I’m gonna push back on this a bit. Assuming you don’t do any exploits intentionally which I am not of course.(defeats the purpose of a challenge run) What makes this challenge difficult is that as you level up the enemies get stronger and you have to balance your skills around crafting and practical skills (one handed, block, heavy armor, etc.) What this ends up meaning is that as we go, we will get stronger slowly and the world will get more dangerous faster because of what we have to focus on crafting. If that makes sense? Appreciate the comment and thank you for watching
