Great video! I loved the streams of this and watching the video is so fun. I hope you revisit this challenge once the randomized dungeons have been implemented. Just wanted to say that there is a weird audio glitch in the video at around 58:20, where the video makes a weird sharp noise FYI.

[@twinphalanx4465]

Prehaps a way you could impliment a randomizer for the dungeons by implementing the user's mod lists, also maybe generating some NPCs vendors and adventurers (covering the general gambit of NPCs) inside the dungeons could be fun, and maybe dropping some of the stones linked atronarch tower mage etc around the dungeons as a rotating buff system.

A custom tavern with multiple exits to choose your path would be a good upgrade.

[@Joov]

[@omakaruzumee]

Imagine a version of this like the dream/nightmare quest from Oblivion, where you have to go through 4 different areas to get out of the dream, but instead it's a dungeon run that leads to a store with 4 doorways in it! When you finish one dungeon, you end up back in the store and have to complete them all in order to unlock the next door to progress. I know that adds a lot more merchant opportunities, but the concept sounds cool to me

[@Dutchy4564]

I personally don't like oblivion but that quest beats out every quest in Skyrim apart from maybe the windhelm east empire one​@@omakaruzumee

[@sanguinepub]

@@Joov Equipment upgrades are also very fun. The game becomes less about leveling and more about equipment and the potions. So having a way to upgrade your armor and weapons by a grade would be awesome.

Candlehearth Hall in Windhelm already has four or five exterior doors so that would work really well without needing to use something custom built.

I can think of a perk for this that would be neat: A perks that increases the damage with the pickaxe and gives you a small amount of gold every time you get a kill with it, and the gold and damage buff stack for each time you take the perk. Also suggestion: They could have it so you get to pick a starting weapon and maybe you can choose a random perk.

[@lilithalicedark]

An optional starting Potion of Potions would be kinda cool to give the first few dungeons variety each playthrough. Maybe even within an optional starter chest with additional basics like a couple basic potions (Health/Stamina/Magicka), and some lockpicks.

[@Joov]

Strong agree that some sort of choice early on to give some extra variety to the initial dungeons would help out a lot.

Now lemme preface this with i have no idea if this is feasible but is there a way to have something similar to an autoexec from counter strike for classes? A script bound to a key (you could also use a potion or something of that nature if possible) that inputs console commands (i.e. setting player skills)? Thought of this because pros in CS use this exact process to set things like custom/secondary binds and force some other settings @Joov

[@ctmarine9100]

​@@Joov I think one good way to pick a class and starting items would be to have the classes have their own room connected to a starting room. That way someone enters a new instance with no way back, preventing players from grabbing extra things from the other classes. Not too sure how viable that would be from a programming perspective or level design perspective, but it seems pretty good gameplay wise.

[@ashleyneku5432]

[@92Roar]

I think this could really benefit from a couple things • A race overhaul like Aetherius so your starting character choice helps you lean into a specific playstyle as well as change out the basic kit of spells available to the player. Make it a more impactful choice over your preferred greater powers • Having all the standing stones placed at the very start so you can select one would also be a cool thematically interesting thing to do, possibly also with a mod to balance the stones (id recommend Mundus- a standing stone overhaul) • I think a lot of other comments have covered similar ideas but having a “start” room that allows you to define your build in some way for the run, such as being able to select some starting gear for a mage, warrior or thief playstyle or a selection of some perk potions • some kind of retained power/progress. I’d recommend implementing a system similar to the no death mods of Skyrim, where dying sends you back to room 1 with all your items and perk potions gone but having unlocked additional starting options based on your progress. Easiest thing I can think of would be giving the player 200 gold to start with per room they cleared in their last run, so they can start their next run swinging with a bunch of purchases at their first store. But more eccentric options exist if you’re thinking of going full throttle and having some kind of “whale bonus” sts style where you choose a selection of options which are expanded upon based on progress. But ultimately, this is a wonderfully cool mod selection and I’m glad everyone’s enjoying it as much as I was!

[@sagedamage109]

I think perk potions should have a small chance of dropping from boss chests and boss inventories

[@Joov]

I think I agree. There has to be some progression outside of the taverns and vanilla skill levelling. Bosses dropping a potion could either make or break a run, have the player make adjustments mid-run and change builds etc. We have a limited library of potions right now (about 30+) I think if that number was closer to 50+ this would fit in quite well. I've never respected devs who have to balance games more in my life lol

[@solsunman383]

@@Joov You could even theme the potions that boss's drop, so that archer bosses drop archer themed potions, two-hander bosses two-handed potions etc. If the higher level or "broken" potions could only be accessed from bosses, it would also give a high risk/reward situation for clearing the level. That would leave the merchants with quirky potions, like "Potion of Potions" and "Gambling". Potions more related to restocking than shaping the build. Of course, this would work best with randomised dungeons, or you will encounter the same type of bosses all the time, limiting the number of build-types that you can create.

24:25 first off it’s called “candlelight” and second off I actually love to use candlelight within my Skyrim playthroughs mf. Stop the candlelight slander

[@Connor_Tyler]

I feel like, what this is really missing, is giving you either, A) a random perk at the beginning, or B) a permanent way to upgrade your character upon trying again. That's really what makes Rogue-Likes work, IMO; not just the mechanical knowledge of the map, but the potential changes to the play-style every time. There should either always be a guaranteed perk potion at the beginning, meaning you know what build you might want to try for as you progress, or there should be a way to buy "upgrades" for when you start a new character, i.e. maybe each shop sells an Upgrade Bundle for increasing amounts of gold, so that you're guaranteed a certain piece of armor or weapon upon start. Like, Lucas might sell a "Steel Armor" bundle, and so you're guaranteed to get at least 2 pieces of Steel armor every run. Or Belethor might sell a "Dwarven Weapon" bundle, so you get at least 1 dwarven weapon as well.

[@theyondant6088]

Best case would be a presentation of three random potions you can choose from at the start, and you can only pick one. It's still random, but its not entirely outside of the players control.

[@Connor_Tyler]

@@theyondant6088 That works too, makes it a good gamble as well. It just needs something to change up the start, because watching him just die to the Ice Wolf over and over wasn't fun, and it certainly isn't how Rogue-likes are supposed to work.

Might be worth starting with a Safe Zone that doesn't have much except chests with specific "roles" At more complex levels you could mod them to be locked until you reach certain unique items or goals, add a meta progression element which is p common in modern games and often allows bypassing or bolstering yourself early to take bigger risks.

Getting a randomly selected standing stone at the start of a run could be a nice way to get some build variety. A random unlocked dragon shout could be cool as well, but it has the risk of being wildly too powerful at the start.

[@JackTheFoxVA]

Absolutely love this concept. I do agree that randomized dungeon placement could be huge for this. Maybe occasionally have things like Inns or skill trainers on top of the shops- not for much mechanical benefit, but could be neat for survival to sometimes get full on rest spots with more npcs. Give a small chance for a little friendly respite that mostly just provides a sudden lul. Maybe not have it count as one of the 5 dungeons- but as a separate bonus. If the high scores could be converted to some type of currency to buy progression that sticks between runs, that could go a long way to giving the 'roguelike' feel. Things like starting with certain gear, starting gold, starting at a higher level, small stat buffs or perks. could be a fun option. For perks and the like- I feel like a lot of fun stuff could be done in the same vein as the stamina warhammer concept. Maybe Spend max health to gain a damage buff, or increase your magicka cost to have one big spell do double damage. Or the inverse: weaker spells, higher magicka. Even better if these are things you could toggle on and off based on the different strategies- through something like a power. That way you can have some internal planning where you need to decide between turning off your glass canon power temporarily for more safety, or going 100% all in on it. Maybe a perk that removes your ability to wield weapons, but makes your summoned allies tankier- to force a pure mage build. Maybe a perk that lets you forage for random potion ingredients at the start of every chamber- to make an alchemy based build more possible. I think this could be a very very fun set of mods- in the same vein and popularity as those randomizers that took the modding community by storm a while back. Its such a fun concept, and I hope it takes off like that!

Skill Potion Ideas: One that makes you taller, another that makes you shorter. Potion that randomly swaps a random 2 of your bars (Health and Magicka, Health and Stamina, or Magicka and Stamina) Potion that disables one hand and makes anything the other does 3× effective. Potion that turns all other skill potions on your person into other random skill potions. Potion that just dupes the effect of the last skill potion you drank (transitive, so if you drink Potion A then five of this, it does six Potion A.)

[@highcard6296]

Love this! Some general ideas as someone who loves roguelikes and Skyrim: Being able to choose your starting equipment or build is really important to keeping the game fresh, definitely worth implementing and letting the player pick, to allow more variety from the get-go and encourage more build styles. The randomness of a roguelike is good but it likely won’t work if it’s fully random. The way Nethalythic structured it- having big boss encounters before each merchant- totally should stay that way, and then I would consider theming the enemies beforehand somehow- area 1 is all bandits, 2 is draugr, 3 is dwemer, something like that- and the pool of dungeons it can randomly draw upon is based around those enemy or level themes. Other than that, just keep balancing it and adding new stuff! This is on track to be one of the coolest mods out there, I’m definitely interested in seeing where it’s going.

[@-kestrellius-3]

An idea for a checkpointing system that preserves the value of learning a static dungeon order while avoiding excessive repetition: You have a single checkpoint, which is always at the end of a dungeon. Whenever you complete the next dungeon without ever dropping below 75% health, the checkpoint advances to the end of that dungeon. However, the checkpoint only advances one dungeon at a time. So, if you have a sequence of dungeons A, B, C, and the checkpoint is at the end of dungeon A, and you go through dungeon B while taking lots of damage, but then clear dungeon C perfectly without going below 75%, the checkpoint does *not* then advance to the end of dungeon C. You'd have to clear B without excessive damage, at which point it'd advance to the end of B, and then do the same with C, and then it'd advance again. The idea is, you can't get a checkpoint just by messily blundering ahead, but once you've demonstrated that you can get through a dungeon "perfectly", it's considered conquered and you never have to do it again. (My original thought was that you had to get through hitless, but I suspect that would promote excessively cautious/unfun gameplay. This way, it's fine to do things like take hits that you comfortably block.)

Don’t take this the wrong way, Joov, but I get super excited when you drop a video because I always end up taking the best naps halfway through your videos. It usually takes a few watches before I make it through without falling asleep. I don’t even know why they put me to sleep; it’s entertaining stuff. They’re not even quiet most of the time. You just make me sleep real good, Joov.

[@slimey0957]

if i had a nickel for every time halldir turns out to be the endboss of a video,i would have two

[@kgraves119]

Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice…

[@sagedamage109]

I think that the starting dungeon should be the same (maybe not Bleak Falls Barrow? It's kinda long and everyone has done it a bunch) and each subsequent dungeon is random

[@spacepiratekobold5112]

Ideas 1. Add the lootbox mod and have the players respawn with a single lootbox to open on death instead of nothing. This gives them possibly something to use and makes every death a different experience. 2. As others have said a custom tavern area as the merchant area with exits that go to different themed paths. 3. Per Section Random Rules. Each time going to the next set of dungeons a random buff/debuff will be applied to the player or enemies for that section. 4. Challenges per Interior. Upon entering an area have the player given a challenge notification to have them try to play a certain way, changing each time they enter the interior. Completing it would reward with a additional loot chest. (does not apply to super short areas)

love the use of borderlands music! great video as always

[@ArkayeCh]

You know you've made a pretty damn good Roguelike if the only things that truly kill you are your own recklessness and arrogance (that soul gem trap hitting him was PEAK).

[@carlosriverasostre200]

I was in the middle of day drinking, this video came in the right time.

[@DiscardatRandom]

I was drinking and driving and this popped up on my recommended

[@johneywangers1425]

i love your videos man there is some reason when a steamer edits multiple vods to a coherent youtube episode just feels good

[@mkiii]

5:02 the borderlands 2 higher level enemy music caught me off guard

[@Sloan6686]

Im fairly sure it’s just souther shelf combat music

[@Guile_The_Exile]

48:55 and the moment right after took me TF out lmfao. This is my first video of yours! Glad I found ya!

[@enduthat]

Ok new run idea: Fallout 4, but as a collector. Collecting unique weapons, power armor, followers and put it all at a settlement. Really enjoyed watching you build up your base in the Far Harbor videos, would love to see more of that. Cheers!

The “CHILLS” reference had me rolling 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 so good hahah I love when KZbinrs collaborate too funny

one of the most mindblowing modded skyrim game experiences wow cant wait for part 2

[@sagedamage109]

Been waiting for this ever since I heard of it. There's actually a mod like this for Oblivion that's been around for awhile, yet none for Skyrim until now

[@rabbitguy337]

PatrixianTV

[@SimplyTom18]

I’ve never laughed out loud harder at a Joov or any other KZbin video in my life, this is priceless. 😂

[@sagedamage109]

Maybe the final dungeon after 100 rooms is Skaldafin? That way you can fight Alduin as the final boss

[@jcbuk2us]

A joov video a day keeps the depression away, keep doing gods work brother🫡

[@carmenreeves2411]

This was awesome! And nice touch having Hades’s and Legend of Zelda Spirit Tracks music, absolute great music 😁

[@BlaineLMN]

This idea is fucking genius. Thank you to all involved for bringing this into existence.

[@Muscimologram]

Skyrim mods will never cease to amaze me, this is genuinely crazy

[@Loromir17]

Finally, the Oblivion Dungeon Overhaul brought to Skyrim!

[@src6339]

So there you are playing skyrim Dungeon Crawl and suddenly you find yourself in New Reno. 🤔

[@kruksog]

Your improved editing skills are really bringing the content to a new level.

[@keithhuckfield7783]

Joov has unlocked gaming in the nineties. If you want the full Mega Drive experience, the loot should be the same every time. It needs to be as repetitive as possible.

[@Perun_1]

FINALLY ACTUALLY GOOD VIDEO AFTER 8 MONTHS. I really missed these videos

[@bmoxley16]

Potion where your health is set to 1 but all attacks only have a 1/10 chance to actually hit you call it "gamble your life away"

[@RichardVSmall]

You should make it so each tavern/save point has 3 doors to progress which are easier, the same or harder in difficulty, the harder dungeons having better loot and exp but greater risk of dying and respawning at the last save point suffering some sort of penalty like losing your exp progress to the next level, losing your gold, some of your inventory items etc. So there would effectively be a web of dungeons fanning out where one side is easier and the other harder. If you feel like you can't manage a harder or the same difficulty as the last due to not being leveled or geared enough, or due to penalties from dying on a previous attempt, you can try some easier dungeons to build yourself back up but with lower value loot and exp rewards. Or maybe you only just managed the previous dungeon so go through the middle door for one of the same difficulty.

[@linkatronic]

This mod is amazing! Thanks for putting this together and hope to see it continue to develop down the road!

[@Adcium]

23:20 the amount of nostalgia that just shot through me holy hell. I love castle crashers.

[@westfords]

I'm really digging the longer videos

[@GingaNinjaSupreme]

Not sure how possible this would be, but maybe adding the ability to unlock certain things via challenges to be added into the level list later kind of like how in Risk of Rain 2 and Vampire Survivors whenever you do certain things it unlocks certain items for future runs. Another could be that every certain amount levels/dungeons you get a "permanent perk" that will be applied through all runs such as in Hades with the upgrade mirror or Vampire Survivors with using money to buy small but permanent buffs. Finally (just thinking this from reading others and some things that exist in some other games) is the ability to choose your path but more specifically have the ability to choose a more difficult next room/boss for double rewards or something like that. Love this idea and it gets the brain flowing, also typing this with little sleep so I probably rambled more than needed lol.

[@Ryder42]

7:57 I approve of the Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb, music choice, yes I'm a normal person that remembers the background music from a game I've not played in 17 years :)

[@portlanddude7146]

You and Jabo should have a 1v1 for three days to see who can get the furthest

[@joshkitto3943]

Definitely need a whole series or three of this

[@Jonjon13Jonjon13]

gotta be honest, that ghost "self-announcing" the fatality that he just did was so badass.

[@empressbloom]

23:10 THAT MUSIC. I was having this play in the background as well i drew when i heard it. ONE THA CASTLE CRASHERS SONGS it like 16ys old now but it will not be forgotten.

[@MicroWhoa]

Loved the outward music, great game with a great soundtrack itself. Keep up the hard work my guy.

[@Zigothywastaken]

Jabo's Juice(Other potions related to Skyrim/Fallout streamers): Your character model height is divided by a factor of 2. Potion of Pet Leeching- Frostbite spider or other summoned creature that gains stats from the enemies it kills. Potion of Fallout: Fallout Music Starts playing Potion Idea: Fate's Hands, every x minutes, a random potion effect is added. You can no longer consume potion. Potion Idea: Luck of the Dice, the next potion you consume has its effect increased by x amount(you could also have this stack which would be funny) Potion of Thornmail- When taking dmg, deal 1/x of your armor to your attacker Potion of Gun- You have a gun, with 9 bullets, it one-shots any enemy but alerts all enemies to your presence.

[@heavenly2k]

This is incredible, can't wait til you get 1m subs

[@sulanoji]

the actual video subject is way more interesting then the title implied. (at least to me) when I read the title I was just: "so what", and avoided it. but then it kept getting suggested (after I watched the recent Spiff Skyrim video) so I thought: "eeeeeh, fuck it, it's a Joov video I'll probably enjoy it" and I don't regret it. I love the idea and the effort put into this, we're moving, we're grooving, we're Jooving ! B)

[@heirofaniu]

I really like this as a proof of concept, once the mod matures a bit I'd be glad to download and play with it. Two things I'd like to suggest is increasing the number of ring slots and adding a starting hub. In Skyrim you can only equip one ring by default but in Oblivion and Morrowind you could equip two; a left ring and a right ring. I think allowing the player to equip more than one ring (I think allowing ten would be a little excessive although it would make sense) would really open up some utility especially since Skyrim characters have so few equipment slots. As far as a starting hub goes use something like Candlehearth Hall as a starting area since it has (if I remember correctly) four or five doors leading to the outside and this would allow you to pick up some perks and equipment to get your build started initially if you gave the player some starting gold before allowing for four or five different starting dungeons for them to choose to start their run. This would also work really well with randomized dungeon orders since it effectively allows you to run multiple seeds per start. Third thing to suggest actually: No more leveling, you gain everything through perks and equipment to really sell that roguelike aspect.

[@Raineistrans]

19:25 this soul gem catch is one of the best things ive ever seen in skyrim
