    @xDarnelx Před 2 měsíci +4

    The "Whispering Claw" martial art style has also been referred to as the "Whispering Fang" style, specifically by Arnbjorn in the Dark Brotherhood quest "Sanctuary"
    Here's the quote:
    "I am not adorable, it was not funny, and he wasn't a merchant. He was a Khajiit monk, a master of the Whispering Fang style. But now he's dead... and I have a new loincloth."
    It's possible that it has more than one name but I think it's more likely that Arnbjorn was mistaken or he misspoke.

    • @cjmarion6350
      @cjmarion6350 Před 9 dny

      it could also be a unique subdiscipline of whispering claw, perhaps a more direct style based off the same original martial art

  • @hitomisalazar4073
    @hitomisalazar4073 Před 28 dny +1

    The funny thing about the "Overconfidence due to the blessings of the gods and their Rose" bit for me is I thought it was a reference to Arena. In Arena you could go to temples to get blessings (from Gods not really mentioned now like Seth). Now the funny thing about that is because Arena used the old school Daggerfall/Morrowind style To Hit Chances, what a blessing did was make you more likely to hit. Sounds nice. And it stacked (so you could get like 50 blessings and have automatic hits all the time for example). But due to a bug or something, Blessings were universal. So while YOU as the player got an increased chance to hit... so did literally everyone else you were in combat with.
    So I thought it was a subtle callback to that, where Blessings were basically a trap and players experienced that thing. "Ha ha, I'm blessed, I'm going to be OP now!" and finding out that despite their full suits of Ebony Armor and what not, every monster they ran into easily ripped through it as well.

    1:18:48 It's called a Psaltery:) it's an instrument similar to a zither except it's held instead of laid on one's lap or a table. Not to be mistaken for a lyre, also a smaller harp like instrument, but it's hard to due to the psaltery being very distinctly shaped lol
    [Edit] so I got curious where they're from causing me to do some searching and apparently the consensus is no one knows for sure, which is a fairly common story for instruments even slightly less popular, even the most wildly popular instruments can have vague pasts. At best we have a "somewhere in ancient middle eastern areas, maybe Greece more specifically due to the name being greek but Idk man" mostly because the lack of documentation for instruments usually leads to people having to go "uhh well this instrument might be a prototype or evolved form of this instrument, lets put it'd history like this"

    I believe I have a good idea for another great war speculation video that could be in the background of the next elder scrolls, or better, become the forefront. So, either the Aldmeri get attack by the sea elves or the imperials attacked by the Akaviri. When this happens, what would the other side do, attack and take advantage or defend Tamriel together? Akaviri is more obviously a serious threat but you could speculate the sea elves have a more dangerous agenda, probably influenced by a Daedra. I think this would be cool and if u do to please think about it as a video

    It's kind of a shame that the newer games don't use these holidays outside of ESO, Rose, and Blades. I get why they don't. From what I understand most people really disliked in Daggerfall the fact that you could only summon a Daedric Prince one particular day every year (and you might get trolled by Sheogorath instead). Because then it means things like a Daedric Artifact isn't available on demand but actually requires knowledge and timing (and hoping you avoid like the 10% chance of Sheogorath trolling).
    So it seems they threw that out, and with it, all the Holidays as well. Which is kind of a shame since they don't do seasons so Holidays could be a way to actually suggest the passing of time and give your journey a little more color, you know?
    It's like Gary Gygax famously said, "Strict and accurate tracking of time is the most important aspect of D&D". And the Elder Scrolls ever since Arena has always wanted to be D&D like.
    The use of Time as a factor to things creates some of the best dynamic scenarios. If you find out something like in "Blood on the Ice" in Skyrim the Butcher's Necromantic Rituals takes place every full moon of Masser instead of "soon! Tonight even!" as the quest actually does... it forces you to take notice of things you might not have considered. Like astronomy, or what time of month it actually is. You might miss it because you wanted to go adventuring rather than waiting around, letting more bodies be taken through your negligence.
    Little things. Having a reason to look up at the sky instead of "I heard a dragon" for instance. Paying attention to what village you're in and the opportunities it might give like discounted weaponry or "All Crimes are Forgiven, no Halt! from the guards" or something. It can provide adventure hooks like if there's this holiday rumored about a Dragon eating kids.. does that mean there was a dragon near that village? Is there a ruin you can find with it? Has it already been looted? Hell can you use your Illusion Magic to create the Dragon's Return to terrorize people?
    There's a lot of things that open up when you treat the calendar as though it actually exists, instead of every day the same as every other.

    This is almost 30 or more years of Elder Scrolls development and lore meaning this universe had time to flesh itself out. Newer franchises have a long time to go while inherited ones had a similar amount of time.
    In attraction and sex appeal, people who were pudgy was considered sexy until corsets were introduced and now we consider athletically built as sexy.

    42:28 the Elvish God of Death is very similar to the Egyptian God Thoth, who's also a associated with Scribes, death, knowledge, and history. Its His role to judge the souls (or Ba) in the afterlife by speaking the truth & tell those who passed away about either their sins or pure attentions in life. Also the Egyptians will erase the names, records, and memories of a love one if they did a sinful or malicious acts against the Gods & the people of Egypt (or Kemet to the Egyptians) while the Pharaohs will become their own Gods in the afterlife after their deaths.

This is a big issue plaguing smaller channels for over 3 years now and youtube hasn’t done squat about it
