      actually the one with astrid killing her in the shack was intended as a choice, notice how she says well done when you kill her, she was the intended target who had the contract on her head.

      i have been playing FO4 quite a bit but i noticed something, in skyrim all NPC's have follower dialogue regardless what NPC you use, when forced with mods or via console they all have generic follower dialogue, but in FO4 they have none of that, they pretty much go silent as there was no dialogue recorded for that kind of thing in this game, so you can't even properly play with an NPC that you want because they just go mute and they also don't reuse their other dialogue.
      it's so weird that bethesda offered that in their skyrim game but just didn't offer that kind of thing in FO4 as if the player would ever want that, in skyrim i can make any NPC my follower and they either have the generic follower dialogue or they reuse their dialogue and say the same shit over and over lol.
      they just made skyrim better in that way i guess. it's kind of a inconsignificant detail but it matters because sometimes the player just wants to have some player choice in the way the game is played, like having kellogg as a follower or something.

    Elder Scrolls can only be read properly at a specific time and place by a specific person, they are quite literally fixed to destiny. To someone that is not ever meant to read it, it blinds them (usually), but the Dragonborn just gets flashbanged since he still has to be able to read later

    • @TheFinagle
      @TheFinagle Рік тому +101

      This is the same for when you use elderscrolls in Oblivion (Which I think you can only do at quest events, but concept still applies) The player shouldn't be able to safely read or use them at all, but the scroll recognizes the hero's path your on and will not hurt you permanently because you have a destiny to fulfill - one that is foretold by the elderscrolls themselves.

    • @SecretData001

      @ГеоргийКириллов-э5ж Рік тому +53

      One of the books you can read in-game titled something like "The effects of Elder Scrolls" touches on that. It says that people go blind from reading them without special preparations, but if they do not understand what an Elder Scroll is or what it's used for, that effect is significantly reduced (they get flashed like dragonborn does). So, getting blinded is for the nerds.

    • @TheFinagle
      @TheFinagle Рік тому +30

      @@SecretData001 Oblivion had the lore of people going blind but you never got to open one yourself, only watch NPC's open them at specific story moments. The game blocked you when you tried - probably partially because the special effects were harder to pull off then.

      I suppose, in a very simplified way of saying it, he inherits from a base NPC class, which provides the most basic NPC behaviour - and with some of his own things like "Too slow!", he just keeps doing what he knows, and nothing more.

      But sometimes he does it pretty often. I wouldn't call it soft-breaking either, but he does definitly have a chance to take like 4 to 5 souls one after another making you feel like dragon fighting isn't really worth it. Also, depending on how far in you are, dragon fights might not be that common yet. It happened to me in my first playthrough, I fought deagon after dragon and he just stole every frickin' soul. I definitly thought the game was broken. Little did I know I had just bad luck, but that still sucked majorly.

    • @nickyliu8762
      @nickyliu8762 Рік тому +4

      Yep, happened to me too on my first playthrough. It was still very early in the game. I couldn't progress the story, because I had no dragon souls. I killed over 20 dragons and he took over 20 of them. I got one dragon soul out of 20, because I thought that time the game glitched and Miraak was supposed to get them all. So I had to kill that mf Miraak severely underleveled and defeat him Dark Souls style. I just thought, the game was very, very badly designed.

    • @Baalslegion07
      @Baalslegion07 Рік тому

      @@nickyliu8762 Yeah, this just sucks. I think that they intended people to meet him much later, but the nature if the game does allow you to meet him way too early, making the fame a living hell unless you play through his storyline. I mean, if you start it and get to the point at which you meet him, you will have to struggle mich more. Then, if you dont his cultist assail you as a random encounter and they aren't exactly weak. So you either have to deal with frequent battles or have to basicly go through the entire DLC to not have to suffer through endless dragon fights ending with Miraak taking your souls.
      So in a way, the game is badly designed. Yes, the chance of him stealing the soul might be low, but it still happens a lot and can soft-block you for a good part of the game. An the quest is called Dragonborn so new players will of course think its patt of the main quest, especially with how long it is! If you just get a full edition with all DLCs, you probably wont have the knowledge of all the DLCs and what they do.
      And for me the worst part is the horribly glitchy final fight afainst Miraak, where he can basicly just turn invincible, by staying in his ethereal for forever. It is tricky and annoying to get around this bug and it happens quite often. So initially you think thats how it is supposed to be and dont realize its bugged, making you run around the arena, until you see that it's bugged.

      The bug occurs if you pretty much reduce his HP below the _hard coded_ amount he'll heal by with his dragon soul... so the game gets stuck in a loop of him "healing X hp" but can never reach the "full HP" which ends the animation. This happens when you're pretty powerful and can 100 to 0 his health bar in 30 seconds.

    I always took the fork in the museum to be a kind of joke. Like, it used to be a joke that so and so was so great and so amazing he could eat soup with a fork. Then as people repeated that and made other people laugh, some people didn't get the joke and repeated it as though it were true. And then eventually it became common knowledge to be a true thing about the god, that he actually ate soup with a fork.
    So there's two levels of funny there. See what I mean? Two separate jokes.
