Skyrim, but it's an Endless Dungeon Crawl (Day 1)

[@DietJoov]

A few takeaways from our first day actually giving this a real try While this was EXTREMELY fun, and a fantastic challenge to try and push through our previous best, memorizing routes and what not.....It's a bit mind numbing repeating the initial few dungeons without variance in how they play - I also think there's an issue with acquiring perk potions being fun and strategic, but ultimately I think it's a bit too quick of a power scaling jump. This could change on another run however. I'm almost torn. It's fun knowing what dungeon comes next and planning ahead for it, but it kind of stinks retracing footsteps. We also did remove the starting debuff. Fun in concept, but for these early stages it's not obvious to the viewer and more annoying than fun. It's an interesting experiment. Certainly number 1 needed feature in my mind is the ability to randomize the dungeon order. I'm trying to think through a good checkpoint system. Inns and vendors seem like a good bet for checkpoints...what setback does the player face when that happens? Will try and answer a few of these questions then give it another shot tomorrow.

[@augustdenger8231]

Perhaps you get a debuff on death and it gets removed on a level up or you could pay to get rid of it at a checkpoint. The debuff idea is really cool but not as gamechanging as the potions so they might not be worth the effort, I can see both sides here

[@DietJoov]

@@augustdenger8231 It's a great idea! One fun thing about this experiment...it's a great lesson to all of us on how astronomically difficult game balance is. So many variables, playstyles and things to consider/try out

[@ruthlesace]

Can you randomize the enemies? That would alter the dungeons some without changing the routing. ​@@DietJoov

[@PermanentlyTemporary]

Good taste in favorite NPCs. She's a stand-up lady that just wants what's best for her people. --- Which is a bit ironic considering how much she sits and sleeps.

[@nickboon1235]

Not to backseat but you should SLOW DOWN!! Rushing is only gonna get you in more trouble😭❤️❤️

[@molecar3676]

the dragon priest didn't have enough magicka to cast any of his spells. they don't have the ai to use a melee attack, so he was unable to act in the fight. he technically wasn't "broken" as far as the coding goes, but it was honorable of you to leave him. respect.

[@Nethalythic]

The Dragon Priest most likely had the Magicka to cast the spells, but definitely did not have the skill level. NPCs need a matching skill level to actually cast a spell, and the skill level scales with actor level

[@aetherius6221]

That's hilarious, maybe hardcode a staff in inventory? Staff of flames or something for all low level DPs until they can cast it themselves

[@clobzz]

the idea of a skyrim roguelike is fucking REVOLUTIONARY, such an incredible idea and im shocked this hasnt been done sooner, i really hope this gets nice and polished and becomes a very fun and replayable experience for everyone!

[@ChaoticGoodPeasant23]

Honestly, me too. Roguelike isn't even really big like it was, you think someone would have had the idea then! Not my cup of tea, but I can understand the appeal!

[@dexll2761]

is there a complete modlist for this???

[@pcgmr-xq4zv]

uhm you said a bad word ☝️🤓

[@aetherius6221]

I can't wait for the final version as someone with 1.1k hours in the binding of Isaac and like 450+ hours in enter the gungeon

[@utryping]

lol i saw you on two different skyrim challenge channels, nice apprentice pfp btw

[@dead_buttons]

Potion idea: Adds a chef hat and a wieldable fork to your inventory. Each hit you land on a target using the fork has a 1% chance to turn the target into food. Only applies as long as you're wearing the chef hat. Name: "Potion of Hunger Strike"

[@sunniestpluto]

I'm starting to think when a bandit is getting their butt kicked and says "Never should have come here" they are actually talking about how they should have never come here.

[@BlankBlonk]

I like how this is basically just regular skyrim but you have amnesia and forget all the boring walking from dungeon to dungeon

[@NIKE-biker]

It’s so nice to have Joov and chat come up with these ideas, truly makes you wanna play Skyrim again

[@DietJoov]

This one in particular has probably had the most suggestions from chat on where we could take it. There's a lot of different mechanics to take into account, and it's been fun trying to figure out what would be best.

[@NIKE-biker]

@@DietJoov It’s quite entertaining to watch too, will definitely leave a suggestion myself once I come up with something great that fits the vibe

[@mjwtruth]

Joov is the reason I started playing Skyrim again early last year and I just got the itch to play again yesterday....except there's a mandatory update and I'm scared of it 😂

[@zefft.f4010]

@@mjwtruth Well, it's not exactly mandatory, you can still play on the older versions. In fact, I'd probably recommend you do if you want to use mods.

i dont think this man has ever seen a dolphin

I doubt a dolphin has ever seen him either, so it's fair.

watching him say "this is the run" while being able to see the timestamps is one of the great joys of being a vod channel viewer. love you joob. never change.

[@tobyriver7962]

Him getting cooked by the pillar puzzle is so funny

[@Andiandru]

I agree with the idea that the "main" channel should be called "Diet Joov" and the VOD channel "Full course Joov'

[@cowabanger]

buffet joov

[@matt-thorn]

It would be really cool to have all the gauldur dungeons in such an order that you could reassemble the amulet.

[@khangasOozaki]

Joov: "I'm not an idiot chat" Me: I'll take that bet.

[@Sirfinchyyy]

Bruh, he makes a living from playing games... Its pure genious.

[@khangasOozaki]

@@Sirfinchyyybruh, he literally said he wasn't and idiot to chat, and I thought to myself 'in a few minutes he is going to die to something and say"i'm an idiot" to himself' which is effectively what happened.

[@Ron_Jambo_]

​@@SirfinchyyyNah, not really. I wish you could see the world as us adults do

I remember G$, Imagine your parents walked in right when olivia munn ate a mustard covered hotdog in one bite.

[@AssassinNao]

2:48:16 dude when you were fishing and talking it was actually making me relaxed and tired lol

[@SnowGoosePower]

Since the dragon priest is only level two, and is not carrying a dragon priest, staff, the dragon priest does not have enough Magica to cast the normal dragon Priest spells, so therefore, can’t even attack at level two.

[@wafflenaught9151]

2000+ hrs of Skyrim and I've only just now found your content. I watched the majority of your backlog and love the content!

[@MrTheQuestioner]

I'm so glad I stayed at Embershard Mine! It was quite the relaxing experience

[@wowownow5]

If this ever gets randomized (which would probably take forever seeing how long door ramdomizer takes) a true new gamemode is born

[@BigBlackChevy03]

when joovs vanity got him a mammoth tusk up the bum for trying to finesse a catch with a soulgem. bittersweet though, that run had good bones

[@superscatboy]

Potion of gambling is the best mod potion I've ever seen, I love that effect so much.

[@Shroomlet]

I’m watching this immediately after finishing all the vods for the one inventory slot challenge, and I keep getting confused that you’re picking up multiple items

[@invis_hood]

Your vids made me get SE and am currently downloading some mods :D Great to see a bunch of great challenge runs on Skyrim

[@MahoganytownXD]

Has there ever been a cooler rock? Geodude

[@ruthlesace]

Is there a chest behind that skeleton in bleak falls? Right before you fight the wounded frostbite spider. There's one base game, underneath the webs that are behind the skeleton just when arvel starts talking to you to save him.

[@PineappleZach666]

There is

[@ruthlesace]

@PineappleZach666 trying to point out of for him without saying, go lot that randomized chest behind the skeleton you've missed. It could have solved some of your early problems.

[@BlakeBelladonna06]

Love you vids! They help me get school done on my days off.

[@craniumfuel7296]

For the matter of an off-hand torch build, you could take inspiration from Guild Wars 2, where a torch is used as a off hand Support weapon, buffs and debuffs, Perk gives you a flame spitter type effect but consumes an ale, wine, or mead from your inventory, or setting enemies on fire with the torch gives them a fear debuff, things like that

[@twinphalanx4465]

Custom Vendors fallows, standing stones, placed loot like ore veins etc

[@kaliek5281]

2:40:00 ish (while Joov is fishing)...the Outward music is so good. While that game didnt really stick with me too much its music sure as hell did.

[@Telemachus2814]

Love your work. I have had a thought that might be controversial and I'm certainly _not_ trying to tell you how to run your channels... this is just my brain being my brain: Why is the regular Joov channel not called "Diet Joov" or "Joov Light" when it's the abridged content and this channel not called "Joov Full-Flavor"? Again, just my brain braining not me trying to tell you how to run your channels or anything. ADHD/Tism brain does what it wants.

[@breannap8585]

Bro I had the same thought

[@renniiroo]

less work goes into the VOD channel!! there forth being Diet joov! whilst joov has a lot of work being put into the flavor and idea!!! 💕💕 this is how i make my adhd/tism brain be okay with it

[@TheRevan1337]

Also, we're literally runescape dungeoneering with this fishing episode :P

[@hostile_prof]

Would at least the endless dungeon mod theoretically even be possible to run on PlayStation since your just changing how the cells connect to each other?

[@codyglenn7231]

Joov, in Bleak Falls Barrow, in the room before the guy with the golden claw and the giant spider, there is a skeleton that you regularly check, but right next to the skeleton, under the spider webs, there is a chest that I've never seen you check :)

[@blueskirt5842]

Very nice mod! Altho it seems to be tailored to your very playstyle, favoring the action-y melee, or archer characters, to the detriment of sorcerer or crafting characters. My suggestion would be, instead of having an ordinary store every five levels, why not repurpose the upgraded Ragged Flagon so each of the four merchants offer something different (have one blacksmith, one alchemist, one court mage, and one general store). Tonilia could offer curiosities (items/spells/materials exclusive to the Dawnguard/Dragonborn DLC, maybe even unique items and artifacts). And lastly, in addition to the innkeeper, cooking pot, and bed already present, maybe throw in a full set of crafting tables plus a smelter. And every five dungeon floors, you get to visit the Flagon once again to re-equip before the next set of floors. The adventure might even start there, giving mage characters a chance to purchase spells that aren't Flames or Healing.

[@adrianorizza5601]

Joov can we get a modlist for this? Please

[@Sirfinchyyy]

Only Joov would do a rogue-like skyrim vid that envolves fishing.😂

[@vibin576]

Why do you never get the hidden chest in Bleak Falls Burrow right before the spider?

[@mickeymouse7152]

That was the BEST ending I’ve ever seen! 6:11:25

1:10:13 me, casual diet joov watcher, munching on some popcorn: WHATTEHELL IS THIS that's truly some crasy ass skill tree though. i've only played skyre and that one already has a lot of perks to invest in, and whatever mod this is: what even is that restoration tree 😮

This could be fun with fallout 3 with the subways and tunnels... Infinite interior generation like trapped underground and stuff... With survival mods for food and water and sleep... Hardest difficulty with darker shaders would be spoopy and fun in my opinion

[@SleepyKurisu]

Finally was able to catch up with this series after not being able to keep up with the last Skyrim challenge at all Hopefully I can catch the next stream to tell this man to slow the heck down 🤣 My guy was drunk in potion power and missed out on 3 whole dungeons worth of loot and paid the price for rushing through all of them I'd also like to propose the rule of every 2 merchants you get a check point so the beginner dungeons don't get boring and repetitive and also adding more dungeons between merchants because the 4 before Lucas we're good but the 3 after before belethor and the potion guy felt too little especially if they weren't big dungeons

[@masteromeat]

me, 3 hours in: "Wait, who is this guy?"

[@cheers_midirs4227]

Sit back, relax and crack open an ice cold can of Diet Joov

The Magic decks that you got were commander decks with are a 100 card singleton format that is why you got more cards then you thought you would.

42:40 there is a chest behind the breakable webs right behind the skeleton

[@arbiter877]

the music at 2:48:30 ish is used in a rpg game called outward and i think if you ever want to play a non bethesda rpg it would be an amazing choice

[@Asterfuzz]

where can i find the full modlist for this?

[@Kryptnyt]

You can cut down Arvel without killing the giant spider if you ever wanna try that. It can't chase you down the hallway

[@PineappleZach666]

I know I'm 2 weeks late but what this needs is a random starter item/perk or something. Something to spice up the run.

[@madmasseur6422]

48:20 he admits it out loud finally

[@Kavukamari]

is using the number keys for favorites a vanilla feature? i notice joov usually goes into the favorites menu but im wondering if he would like using the number keys to switch back to flames or his sword sometimes

[@jaysonjohnson9461]

So I had watched this before but the edited version, anyways one of the perk potions should totally increase attack speed if you're holding 2 weapons

[@Raukenn]

What if you can "buy" checkpoints at the trading spots, for like 200 gold or maybe more, or an equipped item you've been using.

[@JGMedooii]

At 40:19 someone in chat asked "KFC or Popeyes?" So me being Australian I started thinking about KFC. And there i was in lala land imagining a KFC burger that has gravy in it. In my mind I could taste it and sure enough It was a pleasant thought. Anyway not even 4 seconds passed by and I encountered an ad, but not just any ad. A KFC ad. And in front of my tired, dry and stinging eyes was a burger. But not just any burger. A FUCKING GRAVY BURGER. My mind shut down trying to comprehend what the fuck just happened to me. I don't even know how to feel about this. - FYI i have never seen this ad or even known of a gravy burger being a thing. Never even had the thought of gravy in a burger before.. Shit just doesn't make sense.

[@DangerousGazes]

Tip! You're using precision right? It doesn't apply to draugr but there is a different version/addon called precision creatures that makes it work with draugr, trolls, warewolfs etc.

[@woofleonions]

This does remind me... you should try out the Dungeons Revisited series of mods at some point. It makes dungeons like Bleak Falls Barrow and Embershard Mine a lot less repetitive.
