Last time I chose the left for dead option, I spawned in the northern mountains of Solstheim and froze to death 100 feet away from the Skaal village. Alternate start mod and Frostfall make for one merciless duo
I personally don't know why Blackreach one is included. If someone can tell me how to get out of the alchemist's room (can't remember his name offhand) I'd be grateful. I can't even get past the black loading screen out of the door, I'm just dead before it finishes fading in.
@@jayhom5385Same here. Only way to do a Blackreach start is if you turn the difficulty down low enough to survive getting attacked by the dwarves sphere right outside and bolt for the elevator to the right. Problem is the black load screen. Enemies can hit you while the game is still loading, and you’re not invincible during that time. Makes it absolutely impossible to do that start on survival/legendary difficulty. Even the easiest setting can be rough/impossible if loading takes to long.
@@JohnDoe-dr9ffif you open the console while the game is in the black loading screen mode, the game will just freeze until it’s fully loaded! Glad that my little cheat adventures could help someone lol
Ive been using this trick forever whenever I saved before a hard opponent. You may know the feeling when you try to load a quicksave but get killed before the black loading screen is gone… opening the console helps for that too
I love Frostfall. I started in Winterhold with no money, minimal food. I could barely head out to kill some wolves and immediately froze to, well not death, but carried to the inn by some passerby.
I froze in the middle of a random battle on the road to the pale pass (in beyond Skyrim) between imperials and stormcloaks. Thought they might take me closer to my marker...but they didn't. I woke up even further away! Lol it was fun AF
You could eventually make the pilgrimage to ivarstead and climb the 7,000 steps and “meditate on the emblems” as some other hunters do. Maybe follow Kyne and be one with nature.
I would love to see a mini series of this character 😊 maybe throw in the rogue vampire element to keep him chased around the world? Regardless, I would love to see more of this!
I love the backstory. I am a man of the wild. I live off the land. I was hired as a guide by the khajit. I guided them right into a giant camp that had clear and literal signs warning of danger. Not really the best guide 😅
Very cool!! I think this has the potential to go a long way, Kyne’s blessing quest, Valdr the Hunter quest etc! Lots of Hunter/ Survivalist themed side quest to do in Skyrim!! Cheers
Still love how you roleplay your characters and create such good stories on the go, you're very creative. I've played Skyrim to death and watched plenty of videos, but the way you really get into it and create these deep and immersive characters really breathes new life into the game for me, it's like watching a new storyline in the game unfold even though it's not actually part of the original game. 😄 I should try this next time I play skyrim, improv a character, it really looks fun!
Thank you! Yeah it's super fun. It's funny all these videos I do are complete improv I didn't really think about it but other than choosing a character, nothing else is decided or planned
Speaking of the Legion. Maybe Life as a Legionnaire? There seems to be quite a few mods that really overhaul the whole Civil War that look great, could probably get a lot of content out of that! But anyway, great video!
Yesss I am HERE for this. You found such a great spot. Very interested to see more. Maybe a good goal could be to make it cozier with a tent? Can anything else be added? Maybe a goal to craft various things useful for this character? There should be a mod that lets you turn books into rolls of paper.
Omg please continue this!! I love playing as a survivalist in Skyrim. I have a wood elf that worships Jephre and all she does is hunt whatever her God wants her to. Its even more fun when you play in colder weather, where you really have make sure you have enough wood, warm clothes and sear fat (it comes in clutch against frostbite). I hope you do continue!
I'd love to see more of this if you'd like to make it into a series. At least until the character perishes from something to see how long you can go. Also excited to see more of the fisherman series. Keep up the good work
I have a Wood Elf character made just for this too! Its very much just a cabin in the woods/camping kind of playthrough. I play her as a Druid so I make pilgrimages to Eldergleam Sanctuary. Its so cool to watch and know that others play these kinds of characters too.
I had a character that made their secondary home in Eldergleam Sanctuary. They lived in the hot springs area and would move down to Eldergleam Sanctuary during storms.
Woke up to a video of this guy talking, since then I’ve watched multiple videos I feel like I was meant to wake up because DAMN I love this side of Skyrim both as a background video and to actually watch
Please make more of this, so I can watch it when I come back home at 6pm after a long tiring day. I don't have that much free time to relax while playing survival skyrim myself, so I'd love to watch more of your videos in this survival vibe
Absolutley love your content man, you clearly have a lot of passion for the game, and put in a lot of effort and work to keep putting out new videos consistently. You’re easily on of my favorite UA-camrs, and criminally underrated for how chill your vids are.
Love them keep it going. You can never do to many survival series. However, I have watched all of your stuff and the one thing your missing is Life as a Legionnaire. I started my game as you did as a beggar poor and no clothes and went from that to traveling along the road like those other guys you always see that says "Im heading to join the Imperials Army".. I became one of them. Then moved to doing ALL of the legion quests and finishing the game with Imperials winning. Being a Legate at the end I loaded the Imperial Camp mod (cant remember exact name) which gives you like a Fort of Imperials troops to command. Then Loaded Leaf's Rest and went into Retirement in Riverwood. Back to my roots. But had a few imperial guards roaming around outside my house since I was a Legate and all. But became a local hunter Then married and settled down. I've Always wanted you to do one of those. I when I did mine I thought about how you would do it the whole way.. It would be a huge series. Moving from nothing to joining. To becoming the scourge for the Imperials war machine. Then retiring and becoming a Hunter. So many thing to do in-between. Note However _ I stayed true to the Imperials and Only used Imperial Armor and weapons. Bow and Sword. Looked all over to get the Reinforced stuff also or make it.. Was super fun and very hard in the extreme cold with Frost fall and the other stuff. Had a very nice Horse which keep me company most of the way through it. At any rate great shows Love your content. (reminder) When you say your going to make everything yourself Be sure to NOT use the hunter bow you found :) But make one. its more rewarding to have to wait for what you can make. Also as a Hunter there is a Hunters Follow Cloak (green) Just outside of white run to the right I believe a ways past the Little fortress you find. There is a bear cave with a camp. You find the remains of a hunter that did not make it. And his Hunters Follow Cloak. Its a proud reward for a hunter to dawn a fellow hunters cloak and continue doing what he died for. Wasn't sure if you had ever found this.
Honestly living near a giants camp would be a great idea. Protection from wolves and such and warmth from the massive fires some if not most giant camps have some sort of shelter and it's shown giants take animal sacrifices and are very intelligent so you could probably hunt and give them meat from game and they could even accept you into there tribe although waring with rival giant tribes as a squishy human would be horrible. However they are shown to be quiet peaceful so i'm assuming tribal wars wouldn't happen.
@@JacobyWakeby something just so genuine about you and your videos!! i’ll love supporting this channel as long as you want to keep making videos. one of the only creators i can watch without feeling like its a gimmick. you’re great , man and hope you’re doing well!!
Sounds like the makin of a mini-series. Can see him doin the Companion quest line. It is very nature oriented. Or maybe saving the Gildergreen quest in Whiterun.
I recommend retrying this challenge in a less hospitable area, the hard mode would be up near winterhold. Could start by going near windhelm and then eventually going up near winterhold
The way you speak is so lovely. I could listen to you for ages. I love the raw, unedited footage, it's nice. Plus this hunter story/challenge you've made is so fun to watch!
just found your channel and i'm so happy someone plays skyrim just like i do! i have always loved installing mods and living the life of some random lore-accurate person. i remember becoming a businessman that entered skyrim for trade, setting up businesses in solitude and creating trade routes using the Landlord mod. another time i was a poor dark elf living in the grey quarter of windhelm (i was using a mod called bal ruhn that added a little apartment in the grey quarter), and my character relied on thievery to survive. for that playthrough i used dawn of skyrim which is a city overhaul that added a lot of life and culture to windhelm's grey quarter, to make it feel like it was lived in by dunmer. i love your playthroughs!
Yes, loved the episode, this is really entertain, since I've only been working, and haven't gone to the wilds or even played and explored skyrim lately. It's really chill and gives me that felling or calmness and wonder. Have you thought about henet(forgot how to write the name 😅)? Maybe that mood that adds the ranger cabins in each hold could be use for some story telling. Maybe the vampire or some memesis killed camila as revenge, and now he walks the wilds of skyrim, a lone ranger, hunting any danger and being the savior of the forest.
nice to find your channel :) watched about a minute of this and i was like that's such a good idea. i don't like using mods but made a survival build where i don't buy or sell anything. so i went straight to the dark brotherhood storyline so i could get a horse that doesn't just wander off and/or get me arrested. watching the rest of your vid now a few days later. thanks for the inspiration.
I did a survival play through recently on an island from a mod very aptly named “The Island”. It was quite fun and I’d recommend it to anyone who’d want to experience a cute little survival island with a simple goal. I played through it with no survival mod due to my mod list not yet being made for them, but it was still quite hard.
I think a little bit of trading should be acceptable. Most woodsman still traded for specialty items they couldn’t make for themselves, ie anything made of metal like cookware or diet staples like salt or grains.
Maybe do a survival/live off land starting on floating ice or island up north and you can only walk and swim, not run/sprint, ie you don't run in snow or lose your footing. Should be challenging enough I think. Moving will slow so you'll need to plan your moves.
Hey JW, I’m glad I came across your channel today. I’ve been a Skyrim fan for the longest time but I haven’t played in years. So in saying that, this was a very fun video to watch. I thoroughly enjoyed the survivalist style you did here. And yes, I have Subscribed. I can’t wait to see what else content I can delve into. Thank you for posting fun videos. Cheers!
I love that bit about Skyrim with Terraforming Mechanics... if only because it made me smile and remember playing Arena. Where two of the spells you could learn was to delete terrain and create terrain. Heck in an interview it was even Todd Howard's favorite ability in the game as he found it a must have for dealing with some of the more labyrinthine dungeons. Just "poof, wall no longer exists. Locked door? I think you mean open gaping hole in the wall next to the door!". I really hope the next game includes some ability like that. Not that I'm holding my breath. I figure it's a 0% chance. But it'd be cool if you could get spells to just like create rock walls out of the ground or demolish walls of buildings or flood areas or freeze lakes, maybe even just like grow a tree instantly, and such. Just the novelty of that sort of thing coming back would like a fire in me. Granted I also just want the ability to climb vertical surfaces again. Don't even need levitation but if I could legit climb mountains or get over walls and on roofs without glitching terrain or taking a designated path, that'd be nice.
Hey Jacoby, compared to some of the other series that are unfinished. a new take on Life as a bard would be welcome as you seemed unsatisfied with the fetch quests at the college and other mods at the time.
A couple of things: 1. I may be wrong but I think you might need to equip the hunting knife for it to actually work. Again, I could be wrong 2. You got that Horker meat from the guy who died from that tree. The lucky somethingsomething person with the dibela statue 3. How is it that just you playing the game without much editing is more interesting than basically every other youtuber I watch?
You should try the Chanterelle mod. It goes well with Hunterborn and Frostfall. You start out with nothing but your loincloth. In a completely different map. You can get a saber cat mount and everything. A great mod pack for a Let's Survive Skyrim series. The music with Chanterelle mod is good also.
I encourage to look up stuff about Chanterelle mod. It is an even more savage world. With natives and Forsworn. You can build your own camp site.... anywhere and recruit natives to your cause. You got to check it out, Jacoby.
You see those big elk looking skeletons hanging around Forsworn camps? In Chanterelle they come to life. Called Dramans. They are scary powerful. I think you will thoroughly enjoy Chanterelle. It is a survival mod. Hardcore af. It even has Minotaurs and Centaurs
Don't know how familiar you are with Ark Survival Evolved but the mods in it comes with books and how tos. Which you have to read to progress. Because Chanterelle took Skyrim's Havoc engine and made a completely different game. From those working on Skywind. And some that did Beyond Skyrim Bruma. A whole new feel. A whole new world. 100 different varieties of enemies. Including different varieties of giants. Some say you meet a dwarf but I won't spoil that. Definitely something to look into to. I've been wanting to see you do a Let's Survive Skyrim series. The details are par none. From time growing out your hair and beard and having to shave to working chopping wood and growing your muscles. It's really good stuff man.
Good video. Idea: make your way to Riften (do something in that area and make your way to Solitude (pass Markath too) see how it goes. Maybe extend the trip back through the marshes east of Solitude and through Dawnstar back to Windhelm. There you got your series :D
I can empathize with needing to find a good place to set up camp. Needs to be at least relatively level, well away from a road, outside a settlement (obviously) - although I've set up campsites near settlements and that's all right. I like to trade, though. Might as well profit from the random things I find in the wilds of Skyrim, eh?
Try Surviving up north. It's way tougher when you're freezing to death. Also try upping the difficulty. So that every wolf is dangerous and a Troll is deadly
Personally I think it would be even cooler if you didn't even use bows, weapons, and armor of any kind unless you make them yourself. Also I do think realistic damage is an absolute must for a live off the land survival playthrough.
Yesss another episode to watch before bed and get me ready for another week at work hope theres many more to come
Have a great week!
definitely the vibe
real bro
😂I swear I be thinking 😢same thing
Yeah dude i work On a boat so watching this after a hard day of work is really relaxing
Last time I chose the left for dead option, I spawned in the northern mountains of Solstheim and froze to death 100 feet away from the Skaal village. Alternate start mod and Frostfall make for one merciless duo
Yeah woke up on an island on Solstheim left for dead, froze to death like 10 feet from mainland shore
I personally don't know why Blackreach one is included. If someone can tell me how to get out of the alchemist's room (can't remember his name offhand) I'd be grateful. I can't even get past the black loading screen out of the door, I'm just dead before it finishes fading in.

I froze in the middle of a random battle on the road to the pale pass (in beyond Skyrim) between imperials and stormcloaks. Thought they might take me closer to my marker...but they didn't. I woke up even further away! Lol it was fun AF

took 12 minutes, an entire day, for you to walk away from the START.
It's his editing quality that's preventing his channel from surging.
I developed anxiety from him talking about all the challenges he's facing while he's wasting so much precious time.
Maybe become a nomadic hunter/hurder. When it starts snowing you have to pack up and seek warmer climes. Great as always 👍
Minutes in, and I'm hooked. Quality as usual, mate
Thank you!
I really like this episode! Keep it going, please!
I would love to see a mini series of this character 😊 maybe throw in the rogue vampire element to keep him chased around the world? Regardless, I would love to see more of this!
I love the backstory.
I am a man of the wild. I live off the land. I was hired as a guide by the khajit. I guided them right into a giant camp that had clear and literal signs warning of danger.
Not really the best guide 😅
Good but my adhd cant handle first 5 minutes because its just talk :D
Very cool!! I think this has the potential to go a long way, Kyne’s blessing quest, Valdr the Hunter quest etc! Lots of Hunter/ Survivalist themed side quest to do in Skyrim!! Cheers
Maybe take 2 or 3 episodes to see where Balgarr's adventures in the wild take him and then start a new series around his new life ventures
You standing back proudly looking at the fire/campsite immediately followed by the in-game “the fire leaves you feeling inspired” text was so perfect

It's really chill and gives me that felling or calmness and wonder.
Have you thought about henet(forgot how to write the name 😅)? Maybe that mood that adds the ranger cabins in each hold could be use for some story telling. Maybe the vampire or some memesis killed camila as revenge, and now he walks the wilds of skyrim, a lone ranger, hunting any danger and being the savior of the forest.
Thank you! Yeah I've got a few ideas for Henneth
nice to find your channel :)
watched about a minute of this and i was like that's such a good idea. i don't like using mods but made a survival build where i don't buy or sell anything. so i went straight to the dark brotherhood storyline so i could get a horse that doesn't just wander off and/or get me arrested. watching the rest of your vid now a few days later. thanks for the inspiration.
We want more..!
Also, go camping on every mountain peak..!
Hmmm, that is a pretty cool idea
Please do more, I'm curious where this will take you

It was quite fun and I’d recommend it to anyone who’d want to experience a cute little survival island with a simple goal. I played through it with no survival mod due to my mod list not yet being made for them, but it was still quite hard.
I've seen that mod, looks cool
I think a little bit of trading should be acceptable. Most woodsman still traded for specialty items they couldn’t make for themselves, ie anything made of metal like cookware or diet staples like salt or grains.
I hope to see more of this, I love the hunter survivalist playstyle, so this as a series would suit me well.
Maybe do a survival/live off land starting on floating ice or island up north and you can only walk and swim, not run/sprint, ie you don't run in snow or lose your footing. Should be challenging enough I think. Moving will slow so you'll need to plan your moves.

How dare you accuse that, Giant! They are a peaceful nomadic group of people.
Good video. Idea: make your way to Riften (do something in that area and make your way to Solitude (pass Markath too) see how it goes. Maybe extend the trip back through the marshes east of Solitude and through Dawnstar back to Windhelm. There you got your series :D
Cool ideas, long travel will for sure be part of this character
@@JacobyWakeby can only imagine a journey through The Reach ;)
I can empathize with needing to find a good place to set up camp. Needs to be at least relatively level, well away from a road, outside a settlement (obviously) - although I've set up campsites near settlements and that's all right. I like to trade, though. Might as well profit from the random things I find in the wilds of Skyrim, eh?
More episodes of this guy for sure
Keep them coming, love the series vids.
The mighty hunter needs to take a trophy mammoth.
I have been wanting a full on survival series to hold me over til I have another pc
Duuude! I’ve been waiting for new content, thank you for posting
You could try and get all the treasure map’s completed or you could do “Skyrim life as a treasure hunter”
I’m looking forward to watching more of the argonian fisherman series.
Omg yes! You're a legend! I was so stoked seeing you'd uploaded! This cheered up my morning, thank you!!
More pls! I enjoyed it
Now this is how survival was meant to be played
Would love to see this hunter character more.😊
well snap that cart rlly got destroyed
i would love a life as a summoner series. i think the progression would be very satisfying and i know that theres a lot of good summoner mods
I would love to see some more episodes, especially since it can be pretty harsh in the northern parts of Skyrim
I'm so glad to see you! Yes!! Finally, something decent!
Rock on, Jake!
This was the GOAT (Greatest of all Tamriel)
Love this more more
Try Surviving up north. It's way tougher when you're freezing to death. Also try upping the difficulty. So that every wolf is dangerous and a Troll is deadly
New here enjoying all the content fantastic editing 👏 for the algorithm
For what it's worth, I enjoy this kind of content. Thank you for the effort you put into this.
Amazing video brother.
Please keep the series up loved it!
Balgaar needs a villain arc!!!
Hey Jacoby, maybe make transition this to a caveman mod. You can find a mod where you design a cave in that little glade you found.
please do another episode this was awesome
I wouldn’t mind this being a series
Talos Christ, ive never seen a MF'er talk more and do less in one video
As a Skyrim veteran with 2k hours this was very refreshing
would love to see more of this
Another entertaining episode! Keep them coming!
p.s. Loving the LotR references too! 😊
Pick a city at the other end of the map. Then for story you have to inform your carriage driver's family/friends what befell them.
I would love to see a whole series
I really like this idea!
Great video idea.
Thanks!
0:37 not totally random, I've had the same start location when I used that option
Certainly a good choice of game for hardcore. Best of Luck bud.
Legend has it hes still saying “living off the land”
would be nice to set up a small lean-to or shack eventually :)
either way, loving this playthrough so far!
Yeah liking the shack idea
Love the longer content especially with a more open ended character
I'd love to see an ultra modded full story playthrough
Lets up the challenge try beating the main questline with only living off the land
Personally I think it would be even cooler if you didn't even use bows, weapons, and armor of any kind unless you make them yourself. Also I do think realistic damage is an absolute must for a live off the land survival playthrough.
