Eye opening for sure. Amazing what hidden gems remain in Skyrim after 10 years. Knew Loki was a hermit, but never knew he offered quests nor that he took in Haming from Helgen. Mind blown by these discoveries! Thank you Mike 🙌🏼

Yeah I must admit the Haming bit was new news to me until I was researching this last week. New as in I knew he was a Helgen orphan, but I didn't know he was the kid that sat on the porch and said he wanted to watch the soldiers 🤯

In the mod “Helgen Reborn”, they merge Kynne’s Sacred Trials into it. You complete the trials and the old man and his grandson are given a new house in Helgen You can get the quest of the Dibellan Sybil by just sneaking into the sacred areas of the temple, no need to have the statue theft quest

That's awesome! A very wholesome outcome 😁👍🏻 I didn't know that, I guess it shows I generally play as a goodie two shoes 🤣 no breaking in anywhere unless it's quest related haha

@@mike-thegamingdad I too try to stay in the “grey area”with some restrictions. I just hate Maven and her sons. The daughter is trying to get the mother’s approval but is ignored. There is a note in the Blackbriar mansion in Riften inside the master keyed locked room in the basement that suggests that she has put the Dark Brotherhood on you. One of the reasons that I don’t follow the Thieves Guild quest line. You are beholden to Maven as she pulls the strings from secret.
@mike-thegamingdad3 ай бұрын
@michaeltelson9798 yeah Maven is a bit of a deplorable character. I never liked her becoming the Jarl if you hand over Riften to the Empire. Although there are ways to fix that. Plus, the way she gains control of Honningbrew is unscrupulous. Sabjorn isn't exactly a saint himself, but I was never a fan of just giving her that monopoly
@michaeltelson97983 ай бұрын
@@mike-thegamingdad That’s why I use a mod to destroy the Thieves Guild and another to kick Maven out of the Jarl’s seat. I imagined outside of the game’s play to push for the Dragonborn to push for the Imperial seat. The only lore restriction would be the missing Amulet of the Kings. The Rigmor of Cyrodill mod has you eventually becoming emperor with her as your consort. Having the Dark Brotherhoodin your pocket would be a hidden Ace card.

Awesome video my man, reminds me of some of your earlier Skyrim content. I knew about some of these, but not the Skaal one for Wulf, helping Malborn escape Windhelm or Falion disappearing into the marshes at night! Top work!

superb video Mike... can't wait to get back to Skyrim...I started playing Fallout to coincide with your playthru and I've been playing that non-stop - still haven't had the chance to catch up with all your output, so lucky I didn't start playing Starfield as well 😂
