Evolution of Easter Eggs in Bethesda Games (2006-2023)

[@FunWithGuru]

*In preparation for Starfield.* Bethesda are up there with Rockstar as one of the developers I've covered most on this channel. With Starfield finally out, I wanted to take a trip down memory lane and show some of my favourite easter eggs from their games. I haven't played Starfield yet, so I'm excited to see new secrets they have hiding for us! (spoiler alert: it might not be much, i checked)

[@steveraybro8769]

I’ll give you one for free, read the description of potatoes when you find one in Starfield.

[@MrCrazyduck22]

As always, fantastic editing!!!

[@spufd3110]

Check the prisoner logs when you're in the Lock in the first crimson fleet mission!

[@Venom-xd9st]

Just wondering, did you get any info for some of these Easter eggs from tksmantis?

[@FunWithGuru]

@@Venom-xd9st I've been watching his videos quite a lot recently, but I don't think I got anything here from them.

[@L3SSTH4NL33T]

Nice touch of equipping a suppressed shotgun for the No Country for Old Men easter egg. Always love the attention to detail in your videos

[@FunWithGuru]

Thank you! Someone made a mod for New Vegas which puts the weapon in the game. I couldn't get it into Fallout 3, so I downloaded a mod that lets you play F3 on New Vegas' engine.

[@ajg3733]

​@@FunWithGuruIt's so cool that you put in that much effort for something so small, really sets you apart. I also loved the ending, looking up at the stars, so so good!!

[@youtubeistrash2347]

That movie came out way later then that game

[@dumdum407]

​@@youtubeistrash2347I thought No country for old Men was 2007, f3 was 2008

[@FunWithGuru]

@@youtubeistrash2347 The movie came out in 2007. That easter egg was added in 2009 with the Point Lookout DLC.

[@herrhayden1596]

The amount of hours I’ve spent in Skyrim exploring dungeons, caverns and forests, I’ve never had the thought of looking behind a fireplace to find a carefully detailed potato Glados

[@FunWithGuru]

It's my favourite easter egg in the game and I only found it like 2 years ago. It's hard to find becuase you only access that area once in the game. You have to use console commands to go back, like I did.

[@herrhayden1596]

@@FunWithGuru How’d you even find it in the first place? That’s insane

[@OtterverseGaming]

which dungeon is it? @@FunWithGuru

[@Jkub0]

The transition from New Vegas to Skyrim with the music hit me so hard. Really brings back all the good memories I have of playing that game for the first time. Thanks for the quality videos. Your channel has always been one of my favorites.

[@FunWithGuru]

Thanks so much! I forgot how amazing the Skyrim soundtrack was. I had a hard time picking which track to use there because there are so many that made me nostalgic.

[@victorgto100]

please what soundtrack is this?@@FunWithGuru

2018 really was a “Spongebob Womp Sound Effect” year for Bethesda… Insane video as always!! Keep up the amazing work 🙌

[@FunWithGuru]

Thanks so much! I originally had Country Roads playing in that part, but it felt more appropriate to use the sound effect.

[@TheCutRat]

@@FunWithGuru very nice choice in the end, great work lmao

Had a good laugh at that one

[@Venom-xd9st]

@@FunWithGuruyou very much made the right decision 😂

[@awesomegamer7]

With the "you look nice today" door, when you open it it also triggers 3 sentry bots to come out and attack you, so it's a double reversal

[@KillerGryphyn]

A sad easter egg, and really more like a tribute to Adam Adamowicz, was the concept art room in Fallout 4's Creation Club DLC "Capital Wasteland Mercenaries", where you return to Galaxy News Radio in DC to assist the "Good Fighters" against the Talon Mercs trying to take over the radio station. While the mod is fanservice overall, there is a room within GNR that is filled with the beautiful concept artwork of Fallout 3 by Adam Adamowicz, that shows that he was THE concept artist that made Fallout 3 so special visually, along with skyrim, before passing away too soon.

[@MpBrYce]

thank you for your content over the years. I’ve been watching you since like idk, 2016, 2017. Thank you for everything you do.

[@DeathnoteBB]

Dude easter eggs are insanely popular

[@Gyrbae]

What kind of a comment is that, there are huge amount of channels dedicated to uncover easter eggs, this being one of them.

[@Aldderan]

This channel nearly has a million subscribers, of course they're popular.

[@MpBrYce]

Most gamers play the game to “game”. They don’t constantly replay it to find little secrets. A million seems like a lot but there are hundreds of millions of players. Just because you guys go searching for Easter eggs doesn’t mean that EVERYONE searches for Easter eggs. That’s all I meant. My bad boys.

[@thematiasmadness7010]

Bro no offense but we aren’t that special there’s 829k people subscribed to this channel we aren’t exactly a minority

[@pax1913]

The editing in this video was gorgeus, congratulations. The audio edit, cropping I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire, to introduce Fallout 3, already made me smile and leave a like, then I got so glad to see all the comments praising your work from long-time subs. KZbin nailed it with this recommendation!

[@FunWithGuru]

Thanks so much! I was pretty happy with how this one turned out. 😊💙

[@charredolive]

7:27 is a personal favorite. The story goes that the dev working on that section of the game was a Duke graduate, so he named the character Tarhiel, a play on the mascot of Duke's rival UNC. Growing up in NC you'd know just how big that rivalry is.

[@iragremka]

Oh that ending was a nice teaser of what's to come.. can't wait to see what Starfield has to offer in terms of Easter Eggs! Goodluck, Guru!

[@rust3871]

i LOVE how you look at the stars and the starfield theme begins to play, such a smart addition to this masterpiece.

[@furry_killer6928]

“Give me that sweetroll from old lady Palmer” *pulls out shotgun* 😂

[@Robin1996ify]

Love that Ron the Narrator not only named after his VA, but also has his eyepatch placement like Slade's (Ron Pearlman voiced him in Teen Titans)

[@osmaine2755]

Excellent video, no talking, clear, with references, good editing, 10/10

[@Azel7777]

The cut at the end while the MC is looking at the sky full of stars is just beautifully directed, hats of to you guru! Been a fan of your since around 2012 always been nice to see your content growing up

[@Breadelvis]

It's so rare to see a really well made video , calm , relaxing , and interesting. Its some of the best editing I've seen in a while

[@FunWithGuru]

thank you so much!

[@bellboy7809]

The looking up at the stars was a *really* cool way to end the video. Well done

[@RooksTheHobo]

Excellent editing!! I loved that Starfield tease at the end, looking forward to seeing your videos on it!

[@MrPotatosquid]

1:30 Such a clever transition from Anakin's charred corpse to "I Don't Want to set the World on Fire". Very fitting 👌.

[@elystel5856]

No need to watch the full video to tell it is going to be another one of your hundreds of masterpieces; I know you've been told the same thousands of times, but you're one of the very best content creators on this platform.

[@FunWithGuru]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@gouinp4669]

I simply love the way you’re doing the transitions between games everytime, with music and stuff, editing at it’s finest !!

[@TheDJkarsy]

Yooo, you've got good music taste! I'm not talking about the songs you featured from the games radio either. The other tracks you used to edit this outside the games are class. And you use Aphex Twin in your latest RDR2 video... What a man you are haha.

[@kellex4857]

You are an artist. Nice touch by the end looking at the starts, with Starfield theme, foreshadowing your videos for it. 10/10

[@moviefact1]

What fantastic sound editing in this video! Many great small details that lift the quality of the whole video.

[@oldredsrise]

Dude, this is some of the best editing I've seen on youtube. It might actually be the best. Great video.

[@braytastic]

Your videos bring me a calm that is nearly unmatched. Something about the energy man, its a lil hippy dippy but I truly do wanna say thank you for the effort you put into these, never fails to be just a damn pleasant experience.

[@FunWithGuru]

I'm so glad my videos can do that for you! Thank you for the support! 😊💙

[@ThaGrime]

Great editing style. Really loved the vid.

[@FunWithGuru]

thank you!

[@xtropiikz7595]

Ending the video with the Starfield theme slowly starting to play as you look up at the stars was a nice touch!

[@the_real_Kurt_Yarish]

I'm willing to bet that the Lincoln head Brahmin being in Fallout:NV was a mistake. That Brahmin model is from Fallout 3 and was used for a quest wherein a caravan returns the head to the monument. Since the two games share an engine and many assets, it's likely that a developer accidentally placed down the wrong Brahmin model in that location. It wouldn't be the only time such a thing occured with Fallout: NV.

[@roorsworch5998]

I love your attention to details at 3:25, just for this easter egg, you took a shotty with a silencer to be accurate!

[@LifelessTooth]

Also fun fact - the Constellation logo in Starfield is based on the alternate Fallout history's version of NASA's logo (called the USSA) as seen in the astronaut suit in Fallout 3's Mothership Zeta, as well as in Fallout 76

[@FunWithGuru]

I just looked it up and that's a really interesting theory! I believe people looked into it and it seems more likely it was influenced by a NASA patch from 1988. I really hope there's a USSA reference in Starfield though!

[@dinzler6600]

I love you, your quality of videos is unmatched. Excellent from beginning to end as always.

[@FunWithGuru]

thank you so much!

[@robertlucas2617]

That transition from New Vegas to Skyrim was really good.

[@EyebrowBandit]

11:57 I know it's 76, but is no one gonna point out how strangely timed that nuke warning went off?

[@shadowbeats115]

All of the transitions into the newer games were just immaculate. I love seeing your work put into the games I enjoyed when I was younger, thank you for preserving those memories for me

[@BoMwarriorVlog]

1:29 😅 That transition was genius. Well done! 👏👏

[@Volehead]

It just me hit me that it’s been a decade and some change since I first found you! I love the nostalgia I always get from your channels. I first watched the Skyrim Easter eggs from 11 years ago. Loved every bit of this channel.

[@calebschaeferrr]

Most of the reason I make these videos is the fun I have editing them, so I'm really glad it shows! 😊

Any of you guys remember Guru’s old channels? PS3 GuruKid, GuruKidHD or even the music channel he experimented with Affinitie like 11 years ago lol. If you see this Guru, been subbed through it all since I made my KZbin account. Hope you’re doing well mate and thank you for all the content over the years. Much love

[@corvusabaddon]

This video was super nostalgic for me. Very comforting. Thx for the vid Guru

[@RiViN_0]

the look at the starts in the end was so amazing, like GURU telling us "now we go to vast open stars (in preparation for starfield)"

[@lyonsdwyer5373]

Love to see some these references. Also gotta love the herobrine detail in the background of your minecraft clip

[@satanpotato8927]

Fantastic editing and music choices once again Guru 👏 on God I'll be making sure I comment this on every video you post 😂 keep it up man!

[@notaseven]

I love the way you make your transitions and show the content the easter egg is based off (and also that end 👌), it makes the video really immersive !

[@FunWithGuru]

Thanks very much! 😊

[@shadow.-.]

Never realised " War never changes " quote was in Fallout: New Vegas! Guru keeps showing people new stuff even after these years.

[@joemarsden68]

How did you not realize that? Lmao

[@Sbomb16]

The "You look nice today!" easter egg in Fallout 4 spawns a pretty tough sentry bot when you open the door, which is arguably a bigger f*ck you than the previous one in Fallout 3

[@nickkohlmann]

This video is really well made!

[@Pottzy]

The fact you downloaded a mod to get the exact shotgun from no country for old men just to showcase a reference to the movie is awesome

[@HangOnThereSlick]

Bro when he pulled out the shotgun on butch had me dying 😂

The look into the stars at the end was a great touch, im keeping a lookout for starfield easter eggs. I hope we can find some soon :)

I almost forgot how awesome your videos are

[@TheApacheNinja]

I cannot wait to see the video you make about easter eggs in Starfield! Great video as always!

[@vitu__ugo]

The amount of detail you put in to your editing, is really something incredible, that whole segment from 1:30 to 1:40 gave me literal goosebumps, astonishing work my dude, keep up, extra points for Obi Wan's "You were my brother Anakin.... i loved you" line and Minecraft's lava crackle sound

[@Galaxthicc]

I can't believe you did the E3 movement between 3:29 to 3:34 . Smooth

[@caiovasconceloslara5627]

3:37 someone knows what song is playing in the back ground? I fell like i heard it before... Pls help =)

[@ajayyy6223]

That would be The Caretaker - Everywhere at the End of Time. Hope this helps!

[@ellisbkennedy652]

Okay the ink spots playing over "YOU WERE MY BROTHER ANAKIN, I LOVED YOU" was not what i thought i needed to see but i definitely was

[@Lord_Moose]

Okay I hate to be that one guy but, "let me guess someone stole your sweet roll" is a reference to Fallout 3, "The Jerk tried to steal my sweet roll" is not a reference to Skyrim it's the other way around. Furthermore Fallout New Vegas was released October 19th 2010 not 2009.

[@FunWithGuru]

The New Vegas part was a mistake, but I wasn't saying the Sweetroll line was a Skyrim reference. I was just using the best known example of the 'stolen sweetroll' joke.

[@matthicksxx]

8:16 You hid Herobrine in there! You always put so much into these videos

[@friedlegs7411]

The editing is so smooth 👌

[@nickkohlmann]

The last one was amazing.

[@still_guns]

New Vegas released in 2010 Guru.

[@FunWithGuru]

My bad! I was editing a Left 4 Dead video simultaneously with this. I think I confused New Vegas's release with L4D2 because L4D2 came out in 2009.

[@ReddFourBirds]

One of the first references in the series I caught was in New Vegas. However, it wasn't the Indiana Jones reference. It was the Star Wars 1977 release, where Uncle Owen and his wife got burned to death. I found it right inside of Nipton, and had to look it up to make sure I wasn't crazy! Needless to say it was that and the Holy Hand Grenades (from Monty Python and the Holy Grail) in the basement of a building in Camp Searchlight.

[@ncrranger6984]

There is always a certain sadness to your videos…it makes me feel good in a way.

[@benarchyuk837]

I love the ending. The look up to the stars and the Starfield theme begins

[@FlamRackett]

The amount if hours I put into NV and Skyrim, didnt know the Ulysses or Glados. Awesome vid

oblivion has to be the most nostalgic game for me i was born in 95 and played this at peak gaming age and its forever got a place in my heart!! i tried playing this a year or 2 ago and just couldnt bare it as it hasnt aged that well, defo just one of those games you leave and forever hold good memories

[@snowfree6602]

The transition from new Vegas to Skyrim was so naughty

[@B2theProphet]

This video made me realize it’s almost been a decade since FO4 came out, which means we’re slowly closing in on two decades since FO3 and FONV

[@lordchanka3682]

All of these transitions are perfect

[@DouglasA96]

Realising that next month, Fallout 4 will be 8 years old shocked me! I can remember everything building up to that game, from the reveal, E3, any videos or info, I was consuming it. And despite it's flaws, I still really enjoyed it. Just can't believe it's been 8 years though!

[@nastylittlehobbitses4799]

I dont know if you were aware, but 76 has another great easter egg: a house that is a reference to the Monster Factory youtube series by the McElroy brothers. Specifically, their play-through of Fallout 4. (I highly recommend watching it, its an absolute riot)

[@hatchet3188]

Love that you looked up to the stars at the end, cant wait for your starfield video. Also very nice transition boowomp into F76

[@The_Archer-he2ft]

I like the dramatic look to the sky at the end, though personnaly think it needs to have the dude falling edited in just for that funny ending

[@EMBEEAY]

Nobodies talking about Gurus Starfield reference at the very end? Possibly even a hint for future video? Just me? Ok.

[@scrithen2836]

I swear games look better when guru shows them, like that second fallout 3 gameplay clip looked like a game 6 years newer

[@DarrenHoussein]

I began playing Bethesda games since TES Oblivion on Xbox 360 and I love them all (besides Fallout 76 but still enjoyed it quite a bit) but just hearing Skyrims music sends me back and fills me with nostalgia and peaceful joy. Im loving Starfield at the moment but i'm still very much excited for TES VI.
