Welcome to Let's Play The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim! http://i.imgur.com/mp08XRL.webm Hi, I'm UZworm and I've only ever played one The Elder Scrolls game, and that's Skyrim. Even though I have been told many times that Oblivion or Morrowind are better games, I stick to my guns because I am: 1. Too broke to buy new video games, 2. A person who knows what he likes, a list that comprises only about 6 video games, and 3. A person who really loves Skyrim independent of anything else. That's right. Its faults aside, Skyrim is one of my favorite games, and I've spent more hours in it than anyone probably ever should. (We don't want to hear about the games I've spent more on. ((They are mostly Football Manager games.))) Also, it's rare that I play a game I'm not one of the worst players in the world at, so that's refreshing! (Note: This does not mean I am great at Skyrim. I am merely not terrible at Skyrim.) I have been in a coma for the past 7 years; what is Skyrim? Skyrim is the fifth installment of The Elder Scrolls series. It was originally released in 2011 to solid reception thanks to its open-world gameplay, though I've noticed that the general opinion of it has soured a bit in the past few years among people I know. Maybe it's just me. In the game you play as the Dragonborn, imbued with the blood of a dragon and the powers of The Voice that come with it. You must use those powers to save the world from the evil "World-Eater" Dragon, Alduin. Or, alternatively, you can tell the main quest to go gently caress itself and just gently caress around building a house or raiding random caves and keeps. Kill old ladies, get drunk, who gives a gently caress? It's open world! In October of this year, they're releasing a remastered version of it. If this LP is still going on by then, perhaps we'll be among the first to see the magic of the ~new snow shaders~ and ~volumetric god rays~! What's the plan for this LP? I plan on doing a straight run-through of the main quest of the game -- you know, that thing that you never completed despite playing 200 hours of the game yourself -- and then following it up with some other fun stuff. That might be mods, side-quests decided by whoever decides those things, perhaps murdering every single inhabitant of Skyrim... sky's the limit! I might do the Dawnguard or Solstheim quests after just to keep things moderately on track before it devolves into utter chaos, but that's for time to decide. Let's murder us a dragon or two first! What horrifying mods are you using? None at the start. This will change after I've done the Main Quest, most likely, especially since I haven't really used many mods before even though I've played so much Skyrim. I'll be just as surprised as you are at some of that poo poo. Shut up, Chitlin. Who will be joining you? The UZworm Zone holds many people, but the main crew is generally some mix of Highwang, Iron Chitlin, ElTipejoLoco, Killeremcee, Risen, TorpidTypist and Festivore joining me for my adventures. Who is our intrepid Dragonborn? I held a few Twitter polls to determine this! Based on those I was going to be a Khajiit Wizard until it was pointed out to me that plenty of Skyrim LPs end up with the person being a wizard, and also that magic in Skyrim is annoying as hell. So I kept the Furry vote (oy) and went with the second most popular option, Kitty Warrior. Meet Mr. Puffles. He is a very good kitty. Later on in the LP, we're also introduced to Mr. Puffles' more competent sister, Ms. Puffles. She's also a very good kitty. Spoilers? Yeah, general spoilers are okay in this thread; I'm not going to learn anything I don't already know about the game and I'm fairly sure everyone in my co-commentary pool except for Loco has played it too. Try to keep on basic track with where the LP is going, but don't worry about going a bit off-topic. Update schedule? Do you KNOW me? No, but seriously though, I'll be shooting to update this at least once a week sometime near the weekend. Twice a week if I'm feeling saucy! Play your accord- Stop with the goddamn Lady Gaga! NEVER. Why does the first video of the series look like pickled dog poo poo? I'm an idiot who doesn't know how recording software works! The graphical quality of the videos improves immensely after the initial two videos. The quality of the commentary I can't promise anything on, of course.

THREAD PARTICIPATION AND VOTES FrozenCherry gives our friend the Pretty Cool Gem an artist's touch! Lizard Wizard shows a rendition of Mr. Puffles' first meeting with a Frost Troll. ultrabindu gives a succinct shot of our encounter with our least favorite bard. Greenfinger finally fulfills that first request from Video 1 or 2 or whatever it was. Fish Noise documents Mr. Puffles' many dislikes (though he does take coffee with his bread). Silversatyr screenshots my usual contributions to battles. Ultrabindu shows us the most popular breakfast choice of Nords everywhere. Look man, I just really love the new Lady Gaga album, okay? Ultrabindu adds another of Mr. Puffles' classic albums into the mix. Ultrabindu finally found the Orc Fuckin' book for Chitlin! Our commentary would be far improved with John Madden, as Ultrabindu knows. The Your True Love Test proves what Star Man and the rest of the thread already knew. Ultrabindu is fine with the King of Blood, none of that overpriced hipster "craft blood" poo poo coming out of Valenwood. Current Vote going in the thread None Previous votes Imperials defeated the Stormcloaks to win Mr. Puffles' loyalty! Marcurio took down three other potential partners to win the right to be by Mr. Puffles' side during his adventures! Because we're nice people all of a sudden, we decided to not kill Paarthurnax! Windstad Manor was chosen as the homestead for Mr. Puffles' Skyrim living! I can't believe Cicero is loving dead. UZworm fucked around with this message at 03:58 on Nov 11, 2017 |

Oh, neat! Personally I would've liked to see you use SPERG (in short it's a perk overhaul that makes perks much more interesting) but I'll be keeping an eye on this for sure.

Skyrim bored me even faster than Oblivion did back in the day, and I can't remember who the Imperials or the Stormcloaks are to save my life, but I can vote, so I vote Imperials, because.

I say Stormcloaks just so you can make everyone really uncomfortable when one shouts 'skyrim is for the nords' and you add 'Khajiit too!' Then they just fall silent and give each other awkward looks. Someone in the background coughs.

Catsworth posted:I don't care who you join, just give my back! You'll pry them from Mr. Puffles' cold dead claws! Also to answer the questions about mods I'll probably be turning on some of the more "make the game suck less" type mods when the main quest is done. I'm going through like the game was meant to be played until then!

Going to vote Imperials because I like Hadvar slightly more than Ralof (even if you picked the latter) and because Ulfric is such a tool that I can't vote for him even as a joke. Besides, the Empire has put Colonel Tigh in charge.

Ulfric can go jump off a cliff....with lava at the bottom. I'll support my Imperial bros till the end of time. Also Hadvar is so so much better. Tempted to load my SPERG punchcat for a while, but nah, got too many games I'm in the middle of playing. mauman fucked around with this message at 06:15 on Aug 7, 2016 |

I think you should go Imperial. But if you go stormcloak, can you rant about making Skyrim great again, and other word substituted Trump rants?

Imperial because Death to the stormcloaks! Also good to see that you are playing the best race in the elder scrolls. Please stay neutral during the main quest though so that we get to see Season Unending. Man Whore fucked around with this message at 07:21 on Aug 7, 2016 |

I always thought it made no sense to join the Imperials when they were going to execute even though they knew you were innocent. On the other hand, Stormcloaks make no sense for non-Nords. Imperial it is, then. Incidentally, some guy made a couple of opera arias based on the Skyrim opening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVSQ7DDx2Yw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XnIPobxkzU

Imperials Seeing how the natives, and the Storcloack sympatizers in particular, abuse and mistreat the Kajiit and the rest of the nonhumans, there is no other option.

What a friendly looking cat! The Stormcloaks have been much nicer so far. Clearly, Mr Puffles should go with them until he encounters sufficient new information to make him reconsider that decision.

I enjoy the unique video quality approach you're bringing to the table here Also I never managed to finish skyrim because I always end up burning out on it because there is so much stuff that distracts you from the main quest. Anyway, Stormcloak it is

UPDATE Episode 2: Mr. Puffles Climbs a Hill (Featuring Killeremcee, Highwang, Loco) In this video I prove that I am not only bad at landing hits on the biggest possible target we've seen so far, but also bad at pronouncing words! We talk about how much Mr. Puffles resembles some beloved cartoon felines. Also, some bandits die. To answer the questions earlier, I'm trying to figure out why the quality got absolutely shredded in the first video -- not only did it not upload in 720p, but the quality drop from recording to YouTube was incredible, far more than I anticipated -- and hopefully that should be shored up a bit more by video 3. (By the way, Imperials are currently leading Stormcloaks 15 to 9!)

Definitely go Stormcloak. One day, when Ulfric Stormcloak pats Mr. Puffles on the back, looks him in the eyes, and says "you're one of the good ones", that's all the vindication our proud kitty warrior will ever need.
