The irony of Iskall hating rain and also not building a roof

[@FTLnovaKid]

😂

[@jjwang7597]

Lol it’s to remind him of how much he hates it

[@seanrath6043]

True true

[@CrankyPants1020]

Funny story that might make iskall cry, I got a treasure chest scroll in my very first treasure room on my first play through, but I didn’t know they were rare so I smelted it down for the soul shards

[@Solokhal]

💀 was it worth it?

[@SnyperMK2000JclL]

XD lol. To be fair, besides for decoration or bragging to friends... uhmm all the chest scrolls are useless beyond a handful of random inscriptions... and Soul Shards are always of high value. Lol, I'd have flexed hard even in a solo world... but I have sharded many many Treasure Scrolls and an abundance of wooden scrolls on a multiplayer world with my buddy, after 1 or 2 for odds n ends and decoration they more valuable as Soul Shards lol...

[@plantcraftie4141]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@killerbee.13]

@@SnyperMK2000JclL Some of the chest scrolls increase the capacity of the chest, so they're not totally useless

[@tricmagic]

2:45 "If things are pressable you have to press them." Such a Grian thing to say.

[@SilverTao]

iskall talking about people watching in 2x speed while watching in 2x speed was hilarious lol

[@JacksonOwex]

You know he gets less money for that right(or at least last I had heard)?! They don't track video time watched but how much ACTUAL time you are watching someone. So at higher speeds you watch less ACTUAL time and at slower speeds you watch MORE actual times! Pretty sure there are at least a few channels that have tried to abuse that by making videos where they talk SUPER, SUPER fast so people have to slow it down to actually understand what they are saying!

[@dawiddulian2403]

​​@@JacksonOwexoh damn, that's why some creators are talking so unnaturally fast? Well, the more you know

[@monatae9725]

​@@JacksonOwex I'd never heard of that before. That's pretty lame of KZbin. I don't have enough free time to watch all the VH content at normal speed ☹️

[@plantcraftie4141]

I did that with college lectures.. but not with relaxing videos??

[@Yamaelp]

@@monatae9725 too much VH/hermit to watch a normal speed. but usually go for 1.5. Then you do a vault and say: Why is it so slow lol

[@FallenReborn]

Iskall joking about "Listening on mute" and he forgets that closed captioning and people that're hearing impaired exist lol.

[@ayyycortana7196]

He meant without subtitles just for the gameplay. I used to watch ESO quests often without commentary to fall asleep.

[@atadamtp]

Wait till he finds out that you can auto- generate CC... so yes, someone could respond to his question while having the sound muted

[@Heymistamista]

Iskall and Stress collectively playing with one brain cell

[@Vulcan2405]

I love how when I check the Armory on the vaulthunters website it shows Ethos name above Iskall. Makes it seem like Etho won the race to level 100 lol

[@bitblit]

26:35 Me: "I like to watch the videos on mute..." Iskall: "No you don't, so shut up!" Me: 😳

[@XenophonSoulis]

I often do the half video thing (watching the other half the next day, or maybe the whole video again), but not the double-speed. Except one professor from my university during Covid, because hearing him in 1.5x speed is like watching any other person in normal speed.

[@brainthegame4754]

Who would have known what I needed is to hear Iskall and Stress harmonize. Great musical! You should call it "IskallMonster's Melodies"

[@dawiddulian2403]

Stresskall's Monstrous Music

[@savannanaturegal]

I actually do watch let’s play videos on mute quite often when I have migraines which is at least once a week, luckily today I don’t have one so I could hear this hilarious story from iskall lmao

[@icetothemac]

15:59 Never heard stress swear that hard before xD

[@chriswilliams1627]

love it when the filter drops

[@JacksonOwex]

I don't think that's swear, it's a British English thing so I can't really say. Anyway, I am fairly sure she said "muck it up" not... well, you know! You can hear her a bit better in her video from today than you can here!

[@icetothemac]

I wasnt entirely sure on that either thank you@@JacksonOwex

[@grassberries]

​@JacksonOwex nah she said f it's far too noticeable when compared to when she said muck before

[@samsam21amb]

I replayed that section a few times because I didn't know if she swore or not. She definitely did.

[@Solokhal]

''Im a wizard stress'' ahhh stress is 7ft tall man with a majestic beard :) 39:15

[@dawiddulian2403]

Lmao

[@melmac15]

28:00 I feel called out. 😂😂 yeah, I’ll listen to a bit of a vault while going to sleep, then rewatch what I’ve missed later. And yeah it’s a 9-10min sleep timer😅🤣

[@jwhitely7]

I was really hoping that everyone would hit 100 with a week to spare so they could keep running vaults until they get the gear that they wanted and perfect their build but life happens

[@plantcraftie4141]

I don't think that was ever the plan tbh

[@tankbg1311]

at 16:00 did Stress really said ''dont f#ck it up''?? whaat

[@damm7123]

yes

[@JacksonOwex]

She did NOT, she said "MUCK". It's a British thing I believe, at the very least I don't hear it in that context in America. Only usage of the word "muck" I know of is when someone is "mucking stalls" which I believe means they are cleaning the poop out so the animals have a clean area!

@@JacksonOwex if you slow it down to 0.25x speed, you can hear the f.

[@supermarinespitfire3760]

Iskall you don't have to call us toilet watchers out man, there's nothing to do in there

[@ClanticDM]

Idea: change the crystal anvil sound to some type of infusion sound? Are you smackin the crystal modifiers on with a hammer?

[@incorrectdigit]

I’ve known people who turn on captions on some videos and let them play silently while they’re doing things, or for situations where they need to listen like watching kids at home. I also think average watch time being about half a video makes sense just because it’s balancing the people that watch the video, and those that click it decide it’s not for them or they don’t want to watch, or that thing I do sometimes where I’ll click like 6 videos and only end up watching 4 and so almost 0 + full/almost full = half

[@nyx0211]

38:55 so proud of Iskall suppressing his gambling tendencies and not potentially ruining his new hat xD

[@rocknrage8663]

These two together is too heckin cute!

[@SnyperMK2000JclL]

Remind Stress that water and being on a downward decent from a jump will make you dash downwards rather than the direction you are facing. On the upward acent of a jump, dash goes that same direction. "Falling" has screwed my dash so many times and it took ages to realize why my dash was "failing" like Stress says.

[@icarus2627]

Round 24:00 when Iskall was telling the joke, I misheard him and thought he said that 10 years later, he was introducing an Iskall that couldn’t be muted or shut down.. so I paused the video and said yes I can just you watch 😅😂

[@dagi3003]

I am the opposite of "muting person". I often play your vods and not watching, but listening when doing someting, just because I love your voice

[@user-bm5zm1hz2b]

I watch these as ASMR, before I go to bed (but not on mute). ✨This is usually so chill and destressing

[@binyominmartin3308]

Stress got the treasure scroll from your vault because of the doll

[@Tay-el2fg]

everyones gonna love the update when it FINALLY COMES OUT

[@fasterpet]

What do you think about adding in Power Leveling as a feature? Once you get to lvl 100, the experience you would have gotten is split among the party members you shared a vault with? Or add a trinket that shares your experience (like a plunderer's pearl trinket?)

[@navehkamai4888]

I'm pretty sure that's what the dolls are

[@plantcraftie4141]

You can do that with dolls. And when you run WITH them, you could do the braziers when the other loot and give them your burgers. I think there are enough options by now.

[@Jameslongstrider]

Quite the opposite of putting the video on mute. I like hearing Iskall speak. I'm not a fan of the grind of the vaults, but I am a fan of Iskall's energy.

[@Haplo-san]

25:55 I do that iskall, but conditionally. For example, let's say I am listening a podcast or some content that doesn't require my eyes to consume but only my ears; while I am listening one thing, if I am not gaming already, I 'sometimes' open another content for my eyes only, which are mostly craft and art contents like precision machining, wood turning, glass blowing etc. and I watch those muted. Sometimes I do watch in 2x speed. Actually I mostly watch my contents in 2x speed if not info heavy like PBS Space Time. It is like one stone two bird situation, consuming two content together. I also do exact opposite most of times. Your vodskall content for example, is primarily not for my eyes to consume because I know what you are doing, it is repetitive and sound cues are enough for me to understand what situation you are in even if I am not looking, so it is like listening a sports match over the radio. But I am not consuming your content for minecraft content or your vault runs, but I do consume your content for your chitchatting over many things. While I am playing a game alone in the dark, your and other hermit's voices gives me company. You are my second monitor content, for that I like your content. Sometimes your videos accumulates on my browser tabs until my next gaming session, and I consume them one by one. When there is none left, I look for another second monitor content to keep me a company. I was playing PoE when you have asked the question; I have paused playing, paused the video and typed my answer. I felt like I was a subject of the question since I do that sometimes, but I guess I wanted to be heard too. Now I am going back to the game. I rarely comment so I also want to add, thank you for being our content food and also be our friendly voice to listen when we are alone.

[@Ampevedyc91]

the sound of silence

[@gusruck8573]

i do the opposite of playing on mute, i play the audio without watching the gameplay lol. it’s like a podcast for me

[@tobynstarr]

I actually watch these runs with other hermits in the background while doing housework more as like a podcast 😅

[@jayz244]

definitely watched part of this video while sitting in the quiet room

[@YatarashiNhwa]

i actually do the opposite of the "mute" thing, LoL, i play the video then i go do stuff like dishes, games, drawings etc, it's like a podcast, and a pretty good one. XD

[@justcallmeness]

Same here. I mostly just listen!

[@BrianMcAvoy13]

I do the near opposite of muting the video. Normally, I'm doing multiple things and will have your Vods on as background noise😅

[@lanaharris6338]

All jokes aside, I think Iskall is, or easily good be, great at singing. He has such a lovely voice, speaking and singing.

[@plantcraftie4141]

He fr should make an Iskall song in collaboration with Jono

I’ve not heard another person who preferred Disturbed’s cover of the Sound of Silence. Glad to see you’re a fellow fan @Iskall

[@justcallmeness]

As much as I love the Simon and Garfunkel original, there's just so much more emotion in the Disturbed cover and I think it's a fantastic interpretation!

[@Nimssoft]

Hey iskall, I finally started to Play your Modpack and im really enjoying myself, you did really great and im excited for the coming braishers(dont know how to write it xD) after 2 years of following your dev. I finally got me a new PC after 8years (tbh Just for playing vault hunters :D) I got a question regarding the Challenge room which has the compressed Blocks, seeing a few different streamers (including yourself) i noticed that this Challenge room is almost skipped everytime. My question is If this room gets an rework or If some other thing ist planned with that room. My thought about this room was the following, Well it was intended as a quick ressource gathering room for the bulk items (for the Altar) but i think you mentioned that the recipes got quite buffed (lowered in the amount, right?) So to discribe it in your words ist feels (as Viewer) quite wierd, Like the purpose of the room is missing. Kind regards One of your VODskall dyllen PS: i know my Name ist kinda cringe xD

[@JacksonOwex]

I believe "braziers" is the correct spelling for them, if it's not that it's some word at least because YT isn't showing me the red squiggle of doom!

[@carenfreund1027]

The pickup upgrade is turned off on your bag with the fruit.

[@CheaterSama]

I do sometimes watch half an episode, to resume watching later, depending on a few different factors like toilet break in between and then forgetting what I have done, or realizing it’s time to go to work, or just needing to go to sleep, or deciding to make some food or stuff XD I never thought of it affecting the algorithm or so XD Interesting XD

[@Borrowedtime89]

Can say I occasionally watch videos on mute, but only videos with captions (even just auto generated). I’m 96% hearing impaired, so I get listening fatigue because it’s harder for my brain to understand people talking than hearing people, so sometimes it’s nice to just sit quietly with the volume turned off and just watch and read the captions

[@ravenclawnatsfan]

I’m the opposite in a way that I often will just listen to videos but not watch them while doing work

[@officialbailey6029]

I don't usually put the video on mute but I'll put it on in the background and just listen to you talk as background noise while I'm doing something else 😂

[@JacksonOwex]

This is what I do MOST of the time, or I'm reading and making comments while it's playing! I don't actually "watch" too many YT videos! I do now have a second monitor so I guess I actually watch a LITTLE more than I used to!

[@cassie8569]

For the question asked, i’m currently watching this on mute with subtitles as my partner is asleep, i don’t want to move to get my headphones to avoid waking him so im literally reading and watching 😅

[@TDead69]

28:05 I can confirm i watch these videos on the loo 😂😂

[@qtsonlyKat]

I do watch things on mute when I'm in bed about to fall asleep, though mostly on twitch because there's been way too many times where I've been woken up by the streamer hosting someone whos loud

[@FuzzballRenakitty]

We heard that f-bomb! :D Love to see it

[@JacksonOwex]

We did NOT, she said "Muck"!!!

[@FuzzballRenakitty]

[@crschwall]

26:40 the auto generated captions do pretty good.

[@FlorianKast]

Oh man... Iskall-Videos in 2x speed is really exhausting... I have trouble keeping up with his talking speed on normal speed ;-D

[@benjaminpopien5148]

Iskall has a point: Champignons are Fun-Guys🤷🏼‍♀️

[@koogco]

Iskall, if you dash while in the air (and not using elytra) the dash is along your current trajectory instead of where you are pointing the camera, so if someone drops off a block right before they dash the dash is just into the ground and it feels like it "failed". So that is probably what happens to Stress.

[@miniciominiciominicio]

You should let her know on her own channel! She posted this vault on Stressmonster101 Extra. It's called "BRAZIERS WIV ISKALL" xD

[@miniciominiciominicio]

My bad, Stress' POV is called "Iskall n Me"

[@CDRNFreeRunner]

While watching 90% of youtube videos in 2x speed, I feel called out xD

[@phannadethhc]

The funny thing is that I am watching the video in 2 time speed right now 🤣🤣

[@mickus85]

3:09 “what is this thing?” I think it’s Stress’s angel wings. She needs it to enter creative mode.

[@laartje24]

Oops, I always watch these in parts (normal speed). Didn't know that didn't count as a full watch. At least know I enjoy all of it, beginning to end.

[@Nysteria]

I watch art streams on mute while working on other stuff. I can't have a lot of audio distracting me while I work, so I just put those on the side.

[@stefan9864]

I kinda watch your videos in full xD you are the youtuber i watch while eating ;)

[@NicholasReaves]

Iskall not realizing that people can use CC to watch videos on mute and still get context to what's being said lol

I usually just pause the video when I need to focus on something

[@gabrielaugusto3931]

Iskall, have you been running architect vault with ornate modifiers? It'd be nice to see one run, since it'd help hermits that do hit lvl 100.

[@arrow_awsome]

25:15 my brother does this actually! at least when we were younger (idk if he still does) he would watch zelda lets plays with the sound off. still dont know why he did that but there are peeps who do this

[@elliottoland]

Iskall knows disturbed?!?! iskall not only plays video games for a living, but also designs video games, plays Magic, and i guess listens to some metal. And he is a funny swedish man. I like him better every week

[@greganderson6371]

Now I wonder if he’s listened to Sabaton. They’re Swedish too.

[@JacksonOwex]

For a second I didn't know if he actually DID know Disturbed until I heard him say "The way Disturbed sings it...", I thought he might have known it from Simon and Garfunkel original version.

[@Ombby]

I actually thought Disturbed was the more well-known one? 😂 Especially when it comes to Sound of Silence. The original is great, but Disturbed's version is heart-breakingly beautiful, and always plays on the radio.

[@libertyordeath7877]

So iskall I enjoy commentary over minecraft but when watching video for FPS games I will usually mute them and just watch the video itself. It is a difference between types of games for me. That and I mute most computer based tutorial/fixing videos just watching the screen to see what exactly the person is doing instead of their explanation on why they are doing it, I try to figure out the why myself.

[@cookies1488]

@26:48 i actually do this sometimes because my head will be hurting so I read the captions.

It would be cool if you opened all the relic booster packs right at the end (maybe on vodskall) just to see what you get from them (I know you arent using relics) Unless you have already gotten rid of them

[@Masakiyomi]

28:00 I myself often launch a few of your videos to add them to bookmarks and watch them later, and sometimes I watch the first 6-ish minutes and I decide "ok let's leave that one for when I'm taking a bath so I have something to watch", or I'm getting asked to help in a game, so I guess if YT considers the same person clicking 2 or 3 times as separate views with their own watchtimes my average but would 30-50% even tho I watch them in their fullest, lol

[@cianhanson1595]

I don’t watch on mute but I do the opposite sometimes, I just listen to videos/vods in the background if I’m cooking or something

[@Guzzo1028]

I do mute some wood turners and watch the videos, because their voice hits me wrong, but their work is amazing. Also who would want to mute @iskall85? He has the best puns. He is very puny.
