Thanks for the warning💛

Bro that scared the fucking honesty put of me I was 100% scared

i may or may not have changed my pants... you don't need that info do you?

Think first before scaring M'aiq, Nate

Lmao, I had to rewind cuz I didn't remember a jump scare, so I was not sure if I had nerves of steel or alzheimer.

When Akatosh loves himself REALLY really much... =)

@@VaciliNikoMavich Hey sometimes Saturday nights get lonely.

If akatosh is Bored he breaks a Part of his Soul away once again

@@sethgonzalez5076 they're dragons in the elder scrolls universe, deal with it nerd

Akatosh went to the dragon section of build a bear workshop.

Red Films stuff beautiful 😂🙏

111 liked don't break guys

Its no secret guys, he wants to MURDER us to death, that's why

David Hill oh shit, i’m gonna have nightmares now 😖

He will murder us to death with facts and tiny details of Skyrim

Almost crashed by car bc of it!

Dont stop. I was looking for some info in comment section.

You should stop being THAT guy though Lucas. Nobody likes u

Bailey Butler thank you

lilbusta111 ah ok

Darn it just posted the same thing

That was my thought too. Either that or one of her co-workers was trying to subtly imply that she's an alcoholic lol

@@loganmiller7818 honestly, I'd both laugh and feel terribly bad for her if that was the case, seeing as it would mean her personal issues with addiction are very, very public since the game still has active players over a decade later. But funny in a sad sort of way.

But no where in the mission are we ever introduced to a character named Jessica, and we're certainly not told about her wine. But no where in the mission are we ever introduced to a character named Jessica, and we're certainly not told about her wine.

Found this: "The experience was slightly different for Jessica Finster. She started her career on the QA team, which is where she was when Skyrim was in development. Being new to the company just before they released the game of the decade must have been very daunting. Jessica Finster recalled her feelings at the time."

@engineer gaming Google searched and found an article with this quote. If you search for part of what I quoted you'll be able to find where it came from

Even better answer - in the Yokudan pantheon (and references exist in even older pantheons), when Alduin eats the world and all of existence, there are some that survive to hide away bits and pieces - the crumbs, so to speak, and hide those from Alduin until he disappears. They then use those, and some other things to make new worlds. It's mentioned in the Walkabout in the Yokudan pantheon, a quote- "Way of moving at strange angles to leave the eaten world behind." and y'know when you take something apart and put it back together, there's always a few bits left over.

we need a mod to use an elder scroll during combat to blind our enemies. but it's un-immersive to go into the menu to select the scroll. it would probably work better if it's a power that can be activated while the scroll is on your person. it would also be cool if there were more time wounds for each scroll that could give little snippets of history in historical locations that have been there since before the dragon war.

@52262, it’s definitely an interesting idea, but it’d be a bit fishy if it was all that common in the past to use an Elder Scroll to damage time in such a way that it could lead to a coherent vision. Dragon Breaks seem to usually end in chaos, which means a vision would likely just be an excuse to give people seizures. LOL But yeah, if Bethesda could find a way to make it work in lore I would be _very_ interested in more of that sort of thing, good idea.

@@mattrogers6107 you'd think there would be more time wounds through out the world. if not the blinding elder scroll in combat idea, than the time wound idea could be done. think of how the elven mirror transportation portals work. they show an mirror image of the other side of the portal. the scene doesn't need to work like the original time wound at the throat of the world.

Sounds to me like the Elder Scrolls and the Matrix share a lot in common. ... (goes invisible)

the60thLiberator 😂haha

I know I’m late but I thought no one else noticed this.

I felt the panic set in as I thought I was having a stroke.

GaryFromLiberty yooo don’t bring logic in here

Because the spell itself is rare, and mining ore is not for everyone.

@@TheDanishGuyReviews then whoever knows the spell would likely do what I would do, and just go around buying all the iron and silver ore that people are selling

The way I see it, most people can't easily learn that spell and if you're a talented mage, money is no concern, so you wouldn't need to transmute it.

Maybe it's not gold based? Maybe the imperial mint puts in some hidden spell to mark the coins? Maybe they have so many golden septims in the circulation exactly because they can transmute as much gold as they need.

To find any of the loot and GTFO. Unless, you know, one can utilize *_Waterbreathing._* Even still, one can easily get lost when trying to GTFO, lolz

But you have to take them from Mercer's corpse

Except, you only get it from the corpse

I always play as an Argonian anyway

@@brandontaylor6677 it’s likely they didn’t plan that part out until after they made the assets for the eyes

That's because you do.

@@bo-berry1048 Lol alright, I was just about to pull up an old save to find out

I think what he meant is these are the only encounters you interact with them. In those two examples they just hang around with their dicks out no?

Mr. RU-vid pretty much. We don’t see any real behavior from them other than in a bandit mage dungeon function.

@@beboppapadopoulos4158 Yeah I understand that, but he did say you literally never see them again. So, I guess my technical assholeness must have activated lol

Theres probably a mod somewhere out there that renames that shit to Jessica's Period "wine".

Meanwhile in game: No merchant has enough gold for the damn things

I have them playing while I play Skyrim

Ahhaa same!!

I’m cramming info like it’s for some imaginary, all-important test, and play it like it’s my JOB…being on medical leave and not having a fully functioning body has not been helpful to my ability to be a productive human being. LOL

It had to be stolen by Butch. Tunnel Snakes Rule!

Jessica stole it

Many the Courier or Braith.

People's lives are getting hard, and politics have nothing to do with it? Oh goodie.

It´s Skyrims version of Mysterious Sock Eater.

Underrated comment I think the same :0

Yes!!

A name like Jessica would probably never be used as a name in Nirn anyway. Just doesn't fit in. I definitely agree: probably an employee.

Just Cidia perhaps one of the crew was a True Blood fan?

Just what I was thinking!

Actually. The Elder Scrolls are simultaneously archives of the past, present, and future. “The scrolls contain records of all past and future events, but they cannot be read without a severe price-madness, blindness, even death. Many believe they were created by the Aedra, but why or when is unknown” - Protector Arfire

@@sebastiansmith7336 Well it's a good thing nobody knows what these McGuffins really are, because I like my idea better.

Kazuma - kun I guess it comes down to which one is actually proven to right with the lore.

@@Kazuma11290 i like your idea as well. I’m not a philosopher (if they’re responsible for determining the nature of reality itself), but I believe that reality itself is alive, and can be harmed, or even broken. It would explain “glitches in the matrix” that some people experience, along with potentially “paranormal” events, places like the Bermuda Triangle, and maybe even certain events in various religions, that couldn’t actually happen without divine intervention, such as the conception of Jesus in Christianity, along with his godlike powers. It should be noted that I’m an atheist, but I do believe that reality is a higher power; one that ultimately doesn’t care for the troubles of those existing within its bounds (because i also believe there may be other realities outside our own, where things are drastically different (as an example, in our reality, The Elder Scrolls universe is just a series of video games and books, but in a different reality, existing parallel to ours, we live inside the universe of the Elder Scrolls, and the various NPCs in the games in our reality, are actually us in this parallel reality. Effectively, you could literally be Ulfric in this parallel reality, while I may be just a random bandit hiding out in Embershard Mine, and Nate may actually be Hermeus Mora)).

@@blademaster2390 Pretty sure that's your own personal religion, not atheism, but okay.

Booo

Hey you! Those scrolls of yours almost killed me.

Kharjo does not like you trying to fight my friend j'zargo

This comment should have a heart on it. Come on nate

I wish you could marry J'zargo in skyrim

how did you get to tamriel? i must know

@@tvangelist obviously she teleported. Didn't you know she's a God?

@@jacobalexander4498 no i didn't know that, as a god myself i have no knowledge of her

You lost your wine too?

@@NyxMareux n-no

Plugging in some Final Fantasy lore, huh? (I approve)

Because that's scripted, it's meant to happen

Its meant to happen after the greybeards and you go to a city, which a lot of people do right after the greybeards.

Yeah, what Isaac said ^

Breaks the immersion imho... Right after you went to the greybeards, you are still an unknown slob for the majority of the province, and are far from being a threat to Miraak's plans... That's why I prefer to delay the DLC questlines with mods... Edit for typo.

Owen Buhler I get them literally as soon as I return to whiterun after slaying the first dragon without fail lol

Only Nate knows.......and Nate isn't talking.

@@dans.7002 because hes dead

Google.

@@Futurepatho if you could google anything there he wouldn't put that on youtube maybe he gets some help from comments, friends or just finds these things himself

he prob sold his soul to good Ole Hermy 🤔

I usually get attacked by them once, maybe twice if I ignore them for a month or two

Same

I thought you were supposed to be attacked once a playthrough because it starts the quest. I think. Also, I love the spelling of your name! :)

i got my only encounter at lvl 8 in riften then i finished the whols main quest and a bunch of factions and only after i went to solthtiem but only ever got the encounter once

I get ambushed by them once per playthrough, in the first settlement I go to after being acknowledged as the Dragonborn by the Greybeards. I thought that was a specifically scripted event to happen at that time. Besides that, I have only ever, to my memory, been ambushed one other time by them, in the Reach. EDIT: Aside from at the Temple of Miraak and at the stones where the people are zombified on Solstheim, of course. That's not really ambushing, though, I think.

I mean, it's not inaccurate. Given that it's given people in the elder scrolls a migraine probably to try to understand them

🤣🤣

"Well, they can... but not English or... whatever language they speak in Tamriel. Idk im just a dude with a following on the internet"

Does she fuq?

0.o indeed

@@MrMoose-bl7jv : D

Yesss, how curious that bit

Isnt there a falmer body under the eye. I could've sworn there was one. Maybe it was near it.

Theres also dead falmer so that mystery seems somewhat easy to theorize.

I’m doing something similar. Except I’ve only been ambushed once. And I’ve to most of the 9 holds a lot, just one singular encounter. In Whiterun. And I put the Cultist’s bodies in the water by Dragonsreach •-•

Did they get stronger?

So your telling me if i drop them on the floor and shoot them with sunhallowed arrows with auriels bow the betrayers get their vision back? No that doesnt follow the lore at all

Where do they mention that you need to use the bow on the eyes, they were using it as a comparison.

What if the eyes are soul gems and filled with the souls of the dwemer? 🤔 and are called "eyes" due to the irony of the dwemer taking the eyesight of the snow elves. And just can't use the "soul gems" due to them being a "1 way road" and locking them in?

Before the Special edition was releases you could literaly pick up Skyrim and the DLC for less than $10 on Steam sale, and after SSE was released the original with no DLC was removed from Steam (which was the last place that sold it). So yes, it would be more difficult to get the vanilla game with no DLC than the game with all of its DLC

Haha, I literally just got the special edition last month. Was playing the vanilla version for so long without feeling like I was missing anything!

@@KennyMcWilliam *Todd Howard would like to know your location*

Sadly I do not

@Matthew Boyce usually I'd be like "Woah! Over 100 hours?! Nice" but we are all cursed by todd to keep coming back no matter what

Wally Wallace I remember doing that too but I think it might just be from the unofficial patch lol

@@zoeystar7841 Unofficial patch? Do you get those on Xbox 360? Because I've ran into cultists inside the temple on console and PC

Yeah I ran into them too on xbox 360 and xbox one

I hope y’all recognize the sarcasm cause Nate has a tendency of giving inaccurate information

Dozens of times ran into cultists on ps3, and ps4. Plus one of the stones have cultists at it, if I remember clearly.

How, heys it nate going? Here guys

@@BL4NK.F4C3 thought I was having a stroke

hey Kate, lets play 'Hide the Sweetroll".

@@OP-xi1hv What the

@@OP-xi1hv bruh, what?

Been scrolling a while and this was the o n l y comment i saw saying this heckin

I was seriously concerned that it “must be my imagination “ as I play these videos while doing other things and heard it twice.

at around 11:24 he says "dissect and decipher" at the same time

I deeply believe that more of Skyrim should be impacted by what you're wearing. For example, you can dress in Dark Brotherhood garb and no one questions you as you go through the city. You can walk right up to the Jarl! And the Dawnguard doesn't react to you wearing Vampire armor, either.

well the cultist dont know what mirakk look like

@@onlymordecai5731 but then why does the armor resemble him?

Just slightly off...

ZeroSeriesMMX winner

Stop

Looks like the game It's...infinite.

Zoey wym

@@iwatchyoutube9484 he repeats the same sentence twice

@@onglogman he repeats it once, so he says it twice. He repeats it once, so he says it twice.

He consumed some of Jessica's wine, so he's a bit hazy

Thank God someone else found this

Wait what!?!? I havent noticed that since 2011

I doubt it is, that city isnt connected to the thalmor at all

Spies

They also say Morthal was named after the ancient nord hero Morihaus, but if you know anything about Morihaus, you know he has nothing to do with the nords. The same goes for Tiber Septim, sometimes called "Talos of Atmora," but all the history about Tiber Septim says he was a breton born in High Rock. Now _that_ is cultural appropriation.

Considering that Morthal is stuck in a swamp in the middle of nowhere i have my doubts

Yessir that's a gigachad move

🤔 This one?

This one is confused, I think he had too much skooma...

m,moth

Of course he knows more than he lets on. He is secretly Hermeaus Mora.

@@DCBiscuit Yes, but the mindf*cked version of it.

So that means he's to blame for Fallout 76 *_angry mob forms_*

Talk the dog, walk the rock

@@RangerTheCEOofsx Rock the dog, walk the talk?

That's what I thought, too. The Falmer of old countered the poison they were fed and secretly kept a magical sight.

Last time you came this early.....What!? I need to know. Life would be meaningless, if I don't know the answer.

@@victoriabryer4710 There's a joke in there somewhere, good luck.

@@victoriabryer4710 ucc

I wish I could go back to when I didn't read this joke

Basically yeah. If you dont know about the whole falmer/dwemer thing that happened you may need to read up on some lore my friend.

At the time they built the statue, they probably weren't fully blinded as when they were first held captive as Snow Elves the fungi apparently only fully blinded some of the elves and was apparently meant to just make them visually impaired?? The statue could have been built not only for rebellion because the Snow elves realised they were mutating and wanted something to prove they weren't just disfigured slaves which is kind of sad if you think abt it

Morag Bal wishes he was Nate 😳✌️

That’s such a cool theory! You deserve more likes!

It just thought oh a weird notion.... Maybe Snow Elf eyes had a hypnotic property? There's this big mystery about why the dwarves forced them to eat a fungus that made them all go blind... maybe it was because the dwarves were scared that they'd be hypnotized into becoming the servants of the snow elves otherwise? Or maybe the dwarves disappeared because they went mad from staring at Snow Elf eyes? Maybe those strange gems were made from the magic that used to exist in the actual fleshy eyes of the Snow Elves before the entire race went blind.

@@marhawkman303 wrong comment bud

@@owenroherty397 heh, still though, that's the main thing I wondered about here. I'd just never connected those two dots before.

@@marhawkman303 who knows. Its an interesting theory. But i am still inclined to the notion that the dwemer as a race were just dicks.

@@marhawkman303 Honestly I like this theory so much more than the whole thing of it just being symbolism that their eyes were the first mutation etc??? It also could prove the early Falmer's intellectual state because of how they reflected that effect with the strange mineral used to craft the eyes bro I think you might be onto something

Me: (Laughs in Thieves' Guild Master)

@@AmyraCarter if you choose to play as a ne'er-do-well, that's you.

@@SuperLumianaire ... I dunno; it pays better and pays off better to be a thief than to be an assassin.

@@AmyraCarter if you play smart, you will never really hurt for money save for the very beginning. I've had well over a million gold and didn't work for either of the guilds of ill repute.

@@SuperLumianaire ... Ah, but you see, it's more about honing skill than it is about money. Of course, redistribution of wealth (from the too wealthy to those in need) is always for the better of everyone else. So, yes, Brynjolf and Mercer read me wrong; I dabble in both honest and dishonest work. Enchant a stolen axe and make it more valuable, then fence it. Dirty. Smith some armor from stolen assets, enchant, and sell. Clean because the game engine can't keep track of stolen assets once converted by a creation system. 🤣
