Top 10 Hardest Decisions In Skyrim
Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 08. 2023
- Being the roleplaying game that it is, Skyrim has a lot of choices. And although this does give you a lot more freedom, it can also be a double-edged sword, sometimes you can make the wrong choice, and the indecisiveness among us can often be stuck scrolling through all the possible outcomes wondering if we made the right or wrong choice.

"Never dishonor the night mother, to do so is to invoke the wrath of Sithis."
Cicero follows the five tenet's and old ways devoutly (and rightly so given the existence of Sithis and the Night mother)
And when Astrid continuously and openly disrespects the night mother she breaks one of the tenet's which is usually punishable by death, so Cicero did not break a tenet by attacking her, and in the eyes of Sithis was right in his actions.
Lucien straight up tells you that Sithis doesn't want Cicero killed, so there's also that.
@@captainwolfos And you absolutely don't say no to Lucian of all people.
"Psst... I know who you are."
-Sithis
Welp I took him out with no hesitation. I didn't like him lol.
@@captainwolfoswho the hell is Lucien?
Astrid: "Someone in this room has a contract on them."
My Dragonborn with a trail of DB assassins in his wake when they were sent after him: "NO! Really?!"
From a theory I've heard, the player is actually the person Astrid is referring to. A sort of "A life for a life" for the Dark Brotherhood to take in someone promising that has a contract on them. Honestly, it makes the situation of it not mattering which one you kill, make sense.
@@kamaradevile9978 but if you. Kill astrid she says she had the contact
Is it messed up that I've always killed all 3 people and have no idea who is supposed to have the hit on them
@anthonyjordan6715 nah I always do it
My latest build I killed the middle victim because I had a pretty fucking evil character and could relate to the other two.
"at least let me work for your love"
*me running to the riften blacksmith with his fire salt* MARRRYY MEEEEEEEEE
I can't get him to bring up marriage or get dialogue for it even if I'm wearing the amulet.
Cicero is actually not a traitor. If you have Lucian summoned when you confront Cicero. He'll say that Sithis deems Cicero in the right and does not want him killed. Without actually saying it. Lucian is indirectly telling us that Sithis wants Astrid dead. Though it also goes without saying that He wants the sanctuary purified as well. Which means all the non-essential members for the guild's survival must be killed as a result.
And that is why I always spared Cicero. I summoned Lucien as I was going through the dawnstar dbh and when he started talking I was amazed.
Never summoned him. That’s some good added detail. Just felt like Cicero is was correct either way.
Not to mention Astrid literally sends you to kill a fake emperor which almost gets you killed so yeah Cicero lives
I don't know who Lucian is but I took Cicero out without hesitation. He was so damn annoying lol
Never knew that, and I summoned him all the time when I'd have him. Must never had had him summoned when confronting Cicero. I always spare him. (Bar one playthrough I played villain. Never usually do. Just can't haha) I always liked Cicero. Never liked Astrid 😂
Bruh these thumbnails😂
Brings all the boys to the yard.
(Except me, I'm gay, I just love Skyrim)
My thoughts exactly😂
Does anyone know if: a) is modded; b) what mod is that?
@@gabmusic78 Definitely a mod. I know there are tons of sexifying mods, just check out the most popular ones.
@@gabmusic78just asking why do you want to know the mod name
Both Astrid and Cicero say it's because Astrid criticized the night mother. Astrid, from the start, is the traitor, and Cicero was justified by his actions.
He is also one of the best followers you can have.
Honestly I don’t know how (if you side with the DB) anyone could kill Cicero, he’s the one who is wanting to keep the Brotherhood and the will of the Night Mother in tact, I found it pretty easy to side with him 😂
Oh, Listener! That tickles!
Astrid probably cast a master level frenzy spell on Cicero. Framed him. That's why even HE was confused about why he lashed out
I totally agree, but I had to start the game over bc I did everything in the wrong order, and I chose to kill him this time just bc he was SO ANNOYING
The choice to kill Partysnax is easy. Tell Delphine to pound sand. I think Dephine may be my most hated character in any game. Really wish you could outright just kill her.
Yeah, the fact that we weren't allowed to kill her like we could with Larrius in Morrowind was a bad decision.
More hated than Nazeem? Don't think so...😂
@@georgehfnm9623 Nazeem is just annoying unlike Delphine that acts like she can tell the Dragonborn what to do.
@@georgehfnm9623no really Nazeem is stupid and haughty and mocking, but Delphine acts like your her subordinate despite the prophecy telling that you are the chosen one to lead, and actively wants you to kill a good dragon who at the end of this game has probably saved more people over his long life killed less than you cause honestly who has killed more by the end, and finally while you defeated aldwin you had to talk to your mountain dwelling dragon buddy in the first place to learn how to do it. Delphine even admits he was necessary but now he is not so kill him cause he is a dragon. So Nazeem most annoying Delphine most hated.
You can kill her(and Esbern). They lose their essential status after the main quest is done and over with. Just take a quick trip to Sky Haven and they should be there.
I always spare Cicero because he is needed to maintain the night mother's body. Paarthanax was the reason we were freed from the rule of dragons and he helped us defeat Alduin.
I ended Cicero with no hesitation 😅
He's a good follower, too. I always spare him because he gets around the follower limit. If you you already have a follower when you see him again, he'll still join, and you have two followers. Put him in some dragonscale armor and he's pretty tough to beat.
Sadias remains in the hall of the dead is a bug because her npc is removed from the game. Also, the clairvoyance spell will just point to whichever victim is nearest. Fun fact, the only person in the room who definitely has a contract is the Dragonborn.
Lets assume we start the game and immediately do the Dark Brotherhood questline How did he have definitely a contract on him? Is it because of Grelod?
You can refund your skill points from a tree with one of the black books, Waking Dreams, for the cost of a dragon soul.
I believe many of us hoped that Karliah was optional as a spouse. Always liked her voice.
She had a cool design but her voice was the most insufferable voice in the game imo
The ultimate milf is Carlotta Valentia.
She already is devoted to the dead former chief of thieves guild
purple eyes too.
Yes! 😍
I always used to pick Saadia because you got 2 free additional guards at the Whiterun gate for those pesky nighttime vampire attacks.
"Aaand because she is cool, right?" Riiight..?"))))
I haven't had one of those in ages. At least not on PC.
I thought that was a bug. Lol those dudes are still standing there.
If you kill Saadia infront of Kematu he will be pissed, implying that he genuinely wanted to take her back for judgement. And his story about her selling out information to the thalmor match up with them being at war with one another
They could want to take Saadia back for any number of reasons, certainly not all of them honourable. Even the worst tyrannies have courts, though there's no justice to be found inside of them. From my point of view the Alik'r troop looking for her are thugs. They walk around harassing random people, like the bloody Thalmor themselves, and they are living in a bandit cave, in jolly understanding with the original residents. Saadia is suspicious, yes, but she's just a single person who doesn't seem to possess much, working as a waitress. If she was a traitor, you'd think she was living a leisurely life, relying on the riches the high treason got her. I find it easier to side with the underdog.
@@herrakaarmeShe claims to be wanted for speaking out against the Thalmor, but Hammerfell actually managed to drive them out. The place would be a safe haven for her if her story were true.
I do actually leave both dead in the Forsworn Conspiracy. Side with Madanach as you leave the jail, and let them kill Thonar Silver Blood, but then kill Madanach and his crew as you all attempt to flee the city. The guards actually aren’t hostile to you by default so just make sure you don’t hit one in the carnage and you can decapitate the Forsworn leadership as they make their big break
I side with madnoach till he gives me the armor then I kill him before he exits the mine to the city then when you exit to the city thonar is waiting for you and you get his ring so you can get both rewards
I did the opposite. I blasted the group with a wide range calm spell and casually led the Forsworn out of Markarth with no bloodshed
One may take over Drudach Redoubt after siding with Madenach. Then it is up to Dovahkiin what this portion of the Reachmen undertakes.
@@stoneolson5708 WHAT, I need to try this my self. If it works then thank you very much kind sir.
lol, picked the lock to go talk to Madanach, I turned into a werewolf, ate Madanach at his desk, took his key and slipped out. without the prisoners knowing
Saadia's remains appearing in the Hall of the Dead is likely just the game detecting that she's left the game world and triggering the default response because the programmers didn't think to include an exception for her. Why would the Alik'r take her away, kill her, and then return her body to Whiterun?
My honest assumption is she got snippy with them just like she gets snippy with everyone else and OOps...I've always believed that Kematu was always gonna take her back but her mouth got her killed
She is in the body recycle room (using console command to access) her actual death is the only way to get the urn in the Hall of the Dead.
Because Saadia is right. Although I think a lot of people take her out of context. Knowing that the Dominion doesn't control Hammerfell, I took her use of the term "agents" to mean that Kematu and his men were mercenaries the Aldmeri hired to kill Saadia to silence her posing as Hammerfell soldiers looking to extradite her.
About 4 months ago my daughter introduced me to this game that she has been playing for over a year. I am now hooked and love your content helping me to dive deeper into understanding the game.
There's no point wanting to be a certain class. We all become tank warriors one way or another.
killing or sparing Party Snaxx was never a hard choice for me, every play through I spare him
Dragon fights are so common anyways so it's not like you need the quests from the Blades and there's also the fact that literally nobody knows who the Blades even are. Why rebuild a forgotten group that hasn't done anything useful in forever?
Delphine seems to forget that Parthanax was the teacher of Tiber Septim and she has swore to protect the Dragonborn
@@coltonwilkie241because they fight for the protection of Skyrim? And obviously they are important if the thalmor wants the remnants destroyed
@KDB349 The Companions, Stormcloaks, Imperials and the main character of the game also fight for Skyrim. The Blades are pretty much worthless. They're just 2 old people. One of them is extremely bitter and full of herself and the other is on the brink of death due to his age and has nearly lost his mind. The Thalmor are just wasting their time hunting them down because they're both useless.
I had an uhh interesting encounter with paarthinax (sorry if I spelled his name wrong) : I went to "kill" him, he was talking and I attacked him. He continued talking as he flew off and I got the objective checked off for killing him despite me LITERALLY SEEING HIM FLY OFF, he got to live, got to keep working with the blades and got to continue ignoring the old grandpas. I see this as an absolute winwin
HOW, TELL ME HOW YOU DID THIS GLITCH PLS I WANT TO CONTINUE MAIN QUEST BUT I WILL NOT KILL MY BOY PARTYSNAX (delphine can go to hell)
@@gagapoopy im not sure exactly but i have a theory: i got the kill parthanaax quest from delphine but i didnt even mention it to parthanaax, waited till after i killed alduin at the end and when parthanaax was giving his speech before flying off...i attacked him and it counted as me "killing" him but yet he flew off still alive and got off scot free with the blades. At least thats my theory
Thing about paarthurnax is that he is well aware what dragons have done and he himself wouldn't mind being killed. He knows he can never atone for his deeds during Alduin's reign of terror so he spends remainder of his incredibly long lifespan in solitude away from everything and teaches graybeards thumm.
3:58 He also shares the name he has, Fultheim, with a Blade hiding in Nightgate Inn, who has special AI if you walk into the inn wearing Thalmor gear. Also, the clairvoyance spell points to a random target per playthrough.
5:49 There's also the respec system after finishing the Dragonborn DLC.
1. Marry Lydia. She's your first Housecarl and can be with you on your journey practically from the beginning
2. Spare Cicero, because he actually RESPECTS you as the Listener and respects the Tenets.
3. Ralof. Hadvar and the Imperials JUST tried to chop your head off for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, so it makes more sense from a roleplay perspective to follow Ralof.
4. Killing all 3 prisoners makes the most sense from a roleplaying perspective. Why risk making the wrong choice?
5. ALWAYS SPARE PARTYSNAX, WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?! Screw Delphine and the Blades in general.
6. I typically play two handed heavy, with a minor focus in magic for range and healing.
7. Kematu. Saadia is EXTREMELY shady and her story doesn't make sense.
8. Silverbloods. The Forsworn are horrible. Though I typically just avoid the storyline all together.
9. Nords. I don't appreciate people being forced from their home, and the Reiklings are basically goblins.
10. I could literally spend an hour in character creation.
In "friends like these" is also option to kill more than one, or all of them.
And for me and my assassin part, it makes sense. If you kill only one, then what happens with the rest? You let them go? Just like that? It´s potential danger.
I've never found it hard to decide to kill Cicero. It's also very easy to spare Party Snax from being killed by the Blades.
Yeah to me it's not even a choice. "Hey we need you to kill the person who helped you save the world, he was born the wrong species and needs to die because...vague references to past crimes we can't really prove."
"Who am I kidding? You are just going to become a stealth archer anyway". Bro that's a personal attack. 😂😂
others have mentioned why cicero is the right choice to follow. but you missed two choices in other matters. when killing for astrid, you can just take the easy way and kill all three. better safe than sorry. (also every other combination works, too.) and when siding with the foresworn to get the armor, you can slaughter them right after leaving the mine and get full benefits with the silverborn afterwards. i play a killer, so i kill. except for parturnax and cicero. i have my principles.
I made the mistake of killing partysnax to bolster the blades but meh it wasn’t worth it. Sooo I downloaded the resurrect spell mod and revived partysnax lol now I can dragon hunt and still get my blessing from him and chill up in the throat of the world with our boi 👌
I like "paarthurnax dilemma" mod for it. You can shut Delphine up, what is always satisfying, and have good relationship with both fractions
@@unnamellie didn’t know about that one! Is it available for ps4? That’s what I’m stuck on unfortunately lol
Partysnax
@@fij715ah yes, my boy partysnax. He's got the best snacks of all parties, hence his name.
@@Mustang-fu6on He be a flying partysnek
Sadia having her remains go to the hall of the dead acully makes sense because why would a kingdom want to keep remains of a traitor
At number 6 you can reallocate ur points in the skill trees by playing the miraak dlc and siding the hermous mora and he'll let u
I side with the stormcloaks and Ralof every time, not because I see it as right but because I see it as canonical and good for roleplay. Think about it, you’re about to be wrongfully executed by the empire and you have the opportunity to escape. The Dovahkiin would be more trusting to a fellow prisoner about to be executed alongside them than the man who, even if somewhat against it, didn’t even somewhat think about letting you live.
Can't believe I didn't see # 10 coming. It genuinely is the most important decision of the game.
I love this channel
hentai monster
For "friends like these" I don't think that clairvoyance spell matters, it could just be due to the place you were when the quest started.
For my part to the question "who is the right target ?", i think that the answer is all 3 of them.
I don't think that Astrid would have taken the time to seek and capture 2 persons with a story would that justifie having a contract on them.
Also notice that if you kill one target you can't free the others and won't see Astrid do it.
I think that when you leave, she just kill them all.
After all Nazir gives you 3 conteacts in the same time, so it would not be surprising.
And remember that the aim of this is not to find the good one but to see if you are able to kill someone on command.
One murderhobo character didn't even wait for her to finish talking. Killed all three, got called an overachiever.
You can actually return to the shack and free them. moneys on fultheim though through a case of mistaken identity
@@halflife2fun Well, it seems you can return but not free them.
The fact that they are still here is just a bug. I was not aware of this as I play with the unofficial patch.
@@jpcofferip5325 seems I was misremembering, you are able to free them once you killed Astrid in the abandoned shack
"Theres planty of fishes in the sea"
-Shows mamal
Actually, using Clairvoyance during the quest where you have to choose who to kill for Astrid will just point to a random one of the three. For you it was the Khajiit, apparently.
"You're just going to become a stealth archer anyway"
DON'T CALL ME OUT LIKE THAT, BRUH!!! 😂😂😂
The one thing that never changes for me, is that my character ends up kinda evil. Being a Vampire is cool especially with the DLC and mods + Serana feeling like the most real character in the game. While so many of the NPC are such total dicks that i don't really feel too bad about going on a murderours blood sucking kill spree.
0:04 The man talks about a double edge sword while showing a dude with a katana: that's my kinda humour =D
Number 5 ? I see no choice here. Only endless conversation with with dragon big bro about our little age gap
6:20 You can reset perks after completing Dragonborn DLC
Or do the sensible thing and get to level 252 so your perk choices are irrelevant.
Just get it legendary after level 100.
I have watched several videos from this channel by now, and the guard at the end is becoming ever more convincing. Maybe I am a milk drinker. Maybe I should subscribe.
You can easily paralyse Cicero during the quest A Cure for Madness and pickpocket his clothes off of him and let him live. He'll spawn a new set anyway.
You forgot to mention the cannibals quest, where we have to make the decision to kill and eat brother Verulus or spare him and kill the cannibals. I advise everyone who does this quest to save the game before making the final decision! Try the two alternative endings. In my case, I liked Eola so much as a follower that I became... a cannibal!
Later on in the main quest line, you can come across notes in the Thalmor Embassy that bring into question Ulfric doing what he is of his own free will.
No the dossier doesn't bring whether Ulfric is doing what he's doing of his own free will into question. And I can explain why easily enough.
With just two points.
1. He's referred to as an "uncooperative assat". Meaning that he's 1 not doing what the Thalmor want him to do. And 2 doing what the Thalmor doesn't want him to do.
This is proven by the fact that the same dossier says that the Thalmor want the civil war to continue as long as possible. While Ulfric, should you join the Stormcloaks, actively uses you to end the civil war as quickly as possible.
He may have been cooperative, as the dossier says, before the Markarth Incident, when he was arrested, but afterwards the dossier clearly says that he'd become uncooperative. And that had been years before the time the game starts.
2. The dossier is located in the Thalmor Embassy. They had zero reason to believe the dossier would be stolen and read. And given the details contained within they had reason to want to keep it hidden from the Empire and Stormcloaks too.
The point being, there is no reason for the dossier to be an attempt to deceive the reader.
Thus any attempt to paint Ulfric in a good or bad light using the dossier is simply a reinterpretation of what was meant by the games creatures as a dispassionate summary of a person to keep an eye on. Full stop.
I nearly always marry Muiri in the base game. Attractive, a woman not to be crossed, and she’s got some economic chops.
Other than her Lydia is a good choice. She could raise kids all while being damn tough in a fight.
Incidentally you can also marry her in a non DB playthrough by killing Boethela so Muiri takes over the shop, then invest in the shop to make her like you. Slap an Amulet of Mara on that ass and you're set.
I always chose Mjoll, hell I even gifted her Volundruung after the wedding.She's a capable fighter with a soft side.
sylgia #1
Fratpack for the win...
@@adamb89I almost considered joining the DB again just for her, thanks!
I only joined them once because i wanted the achievement
The stealth archer call IS uncalled for. Leave me alone.
Great vid btw!
Well, not rebuilding the Blades is not my fault, that falls upon those who cannot compromise. Party Snacks has had plenty of time to turn back, and dragons don't really work like that iirc. They are not capricious, they do not merely change on a whim.
I will thu'um it from every mountain, every hillside!!
Watching fall damage videos is like free therapy 👍
I always base my decision on who to follow by what enemies have better loot to sell since it’s not an actual commitment
I love this channel please make more skyrim videos
As I understand it from what I've seen others say, the clairvoyance spell points at whoever's closest to you at the time of casting?
I could be mistaken though; it's not like I've ever tried that trick myself, so far.
1. Depends on Character.
2. Spare Cicero, just to someone take care of the corps.
3. Ralof, though I use Alternative Start.
4. All 3- Wait I can see the ACTUAL target? ...Whoopsie...? Well no witnesses.
5. Spare Paarthunax, ALWAYS. ...And maybe shout Delphine off the cliff.
6. Depends on Character, but I favor Shadowblade, using Invis and Dagger to assassinate EVERYTHING.
7. Tend to sell Saadia out.
8. At first help Forsworn, and backstab them at exit.
9. Depends on Mood... Usually ending Rieklings.
10. Depends on Mood.
Based decisions
Really awesome videos nice
I love your thumbnails
luv the vids man
You can also reset skills by completeing Dragon DLC. The reward of Waking Dreams allows returning skill points without reseting your skill points for a dragon soul
For those that don't know, cicero got his funny hat, and his funny clothes, from his final contract. Right before he was keeper all the others in the cheydinhal sanctuary were discussing who it should be as keeper since their listener a few days prior, got burned alive by mage fire in front of cicero, because of this they had to revive the old ways and put a keeper in place to survive, they ultimately chose cicero. They gave him one last contract and it happened to be a jester, that laughed as he died. Its funny how this goes full circle, as when you become the listener, and you have the choice to kill him, he laughs as he dies just the way I'm sure the original jester did. Just some lore for ya guys I found it cool. You can read about cicero in his journals theres a total of 4, the first one hes a sane man just looking for a home, and as you read further he slowly becomes more and more, cicero.
7:08 About the urn: it’s theorized that the urn’s appearance is NOT apart of the quest, but rather a byproduct of this being a Bethesda game. When a Whiterun (named) citizen dies their urn appears in the catacombs, so when Nadia “dies” during the quest the game never removes her from Whiterun and assumes she died.
bro 😂 istg i was watching this video while doing the serana quest on my new character u said number one and i said "who to marry" out loud right before u said it 😂😂😂
6:15 false information perk points CAN be reset at the end of one of the black books for one dragon soul/perk tree
Maybe only after you defeat Miraak
Looking at the thumbnail I was like “wait, I just played that mission yesterday and I don’t remember there being choices”
Lucien Lachance also mentions that Sithis does not want Ciceros death.
#6 is spot on. We're going to be a stealth archer anyways.
what mod are you using to make the characters so clean and cool?
1 - marry, marry anyone that can fight, jzargo is strong.
2 - spare cicero, he was in the right and even sithis doesnt
want him killed.
3 - imperials, the thalmor "let ulfric go" they want chaos
and war so they can come through and claim skyrim when
the war ends.
4 - kill all 3 and join the brotherhood, maximum loot and lvls.
5 - spare him, download the mod that lets you tell her off.
6 - stealth archer
7 - kill saadia
8 - forsworn
9 - tough one since having small followers is fun and amusing,
but i pick nords.
10 - create any character for whatever buffs you need,
put on a helmet and never look at it again.
The Reiklings have some weird random chance of assisting you in combat Im pretty sure and I remember on the Xbox it somehow triggered when I was fighting a damn giant outside of Whiterun which was hilarious
When it comes to Kematu and Saadia, I don't think we should be making any decision. This is a job for a Jarl. There should be hard evidence before you can decide who to kill or punish. The Redgaurds weren't ready to share any details and would show no proof but at the same time Kematu wanted to talk instead of fighting. That makes you believe in Kematu and his side of the story. We are not supposed to know what's happening in Hammerfell to make this decision. So in reality you are just killing some one with no proof. Although all evidence point towards saadia and the fact that she had to leave her country to be safe make her a criminal, if she wasn't a criminal the he would have been safe in her own country, she is a noble after all, she would be protected.
Never knew about the clairvoyance trick all these years 😮
I used to play Nord and Orc. Orc because if you go shaved bald (mod) and no beard and choose the last war paint in dark red or black you look like a demon from hell. And you have the berserker rage.
But lately I've gone Argonian. For stealth characters but also crazy things like a muscle dude Heavy armor 2-hand Archer hybrid. With time and playing with the face/eye colouring you can make cool Argonians.
Bro your thumbnail is about to ask me is i want to do the skyrim shuffle
These thumbnails go hard
Although the real reason Saadia's urn shows up is only because the game registers her as "missing = dead", I think an alternative thought would be that the Alik'r deliberately faked her death by placing an urn in the Hall of the Dead to cover their tracks in Skyrim and that they actually brought her back to Hammerfell.
Fun fact if you bring the ghost assassin's that used to be in the dark brotherhood they tell you that sithis says thats its not time to kill ciecaro
I've never played as a stealth archer lol 😂 I might do that sometime though
It would be interesting to see...of people who go with Ralof, how many then go on to side with the empire?
In the abandoned shack the one who trully has a contract is in fact the dragonborn. Dark brotherhood already tried to assasinate dragonborn according to contract that Maven placed on our heads, but we defeated the assasin which in Astrid eye's made us worthy of joining the dark brotherhood.
well hello
Kill or spare partysnax isn't a difficult decision, it's a easy one.
no. It shows that Skyrim fails to be an RPG. it removes player freedom. What if someone has a reason to kill him? People like you will call them a monster for it since you dont understand why and will just bitch at them over it.
@@MLPDethDealr32 this is were you are wrong, I killed him.
bro knows what hes doing with the thumbnails 💀💀
On my 1st playthy lvl 11. Im kinda a axe and shield (inittially mace) archer, mage of conjuration/distruction play style. Using whatever best suits the situation. But i hope mixing it up doesnt come to bite me in the rear later.
When I chose build I normally mix a warrior with either a archer or mage for fighting dragons only and use my swords to take out anyone on the ground
Hey milk drinker! any way you can share the mods you are using? specifically, the mods to make all npc's just look better/prettier. and also the mod at 00:56 of this video please.
I always side with Saadia. That way there are always a couple of Redguards at the gate of Whiterun, which act as a useful first line of defence against vampire attacks, and might end up saving valuable NPC's like Adrianne or Ulfberth.
I've never wanted to screenshot a thumbnail before
I always chose stormcloacks ulfric has the thum too so it is cool if both ulfric and the dragonborn uses there thuum on the imperials.
I cant find a comment on it, but the Saadia one is, I think, a game mechanic where if someone from Whiterun de-spawns forever, then they automatically get a burial urn. It doesn't necessarily mean they died, just an edge case of an if/then in the games code. At least that was an explanation I heard once.
Dunno if anyone else said this but if you have whatever dlc that let’s you kill miraak at the very end you can trade 1 dragon soul to reset a skill tree even if it’s not maxed out
I always spare cicero. After the questline, he's a follower markes essential
I used to always kill Cicero until my most recent playthrough. Instead of immediately going to take care of Cicero this time I had got side tracked with another quest. During that quest I summoned the spectral assasin to help fight. One the gift was one he started talking. And during that he said that the dread father didn't want you to kill Cicero, so I didn't.
Try an Arcane Stealth Archer. Spells like bound bow, muffle, invisibility and paralyze make it really fun to play. Plus no need for carry weight on bows and you don’t need to horde arrows
Married Aela, because she is great with a bow for accurate long range attacks, which are harder for me to pull off in similar fashion...especially against dragons.
I side with Saadia because even if the Ala'kir are right, they still perform an extrajudicial execution. It would be a far easier decision to make if you could marry her though. I tend to go with Aela of Mjoll the Lioness as a wife. Mjoll is basically Batman and working your way up to lead the Thieves' Guild gives the marriage a little more spice. As for Aela, she's only a furry when she wants to transform and considering Serana isn't marryable without a bit of cheating (vampires and werewolves, I like to live dangerously) A character voiced by the legendary Claudia Christian is the next best thing. I play console Skyrim, so Serana as a wife is out of the question for me anyway.
I DESPISE Aela, because her vindictive anger is what got Kodlak killed.
Dang it they got me again with the thumbnail! 😂
3:24 Astrid was my first choice (with no knowledge of the consequences). When I wanted to join the Dark Brotherhood, I picked all three at once.
When it came to choosing your build in Skyrim I unintentionally always kept becoming a battlemage. Even when I tried doing things like archery and stealth kills
I'm deliberately playing a "no magic" run now. No alteration protective skins, no healing...zip. It's challenging
