Skyrim: The Randomiser - Door Than Meets The Eye

Skyrim returns with a randomiser mod, which naturally means utter chaos, as I desperately try to find a way to escape the game's tutorial, and make a horrifying discovery about Ralof...

If anyone's wondering what a "Sload" is in The Elder Scrolls, think Jabba the Hutt but with more necromancy. So "Dainty Sload" is kind of a playful oxymoron.

2:45 I believe it does actually count as a door but was purposefully left out of the randomizer to avoid that exact issue.

[@nessesaryschoolthing]

Jon barely recognizes the guy and he's already talking about inserting something into him, dear oh flipping dear

[@fuzzyfuzzyfungus]

That's not just a dwemer ruin, that's one of the fiddly DLC dwemer ruins with the extra architectural complications and backtracking, if I'm remembering correctly. edit: in general Jon seemed to get a lot of expansion locations vs. basegame. Solstheim dwemer ruins, Dawnguard vampire castle.

[@nessesaryschoolthing]

You can tell because the dead lady down there was dressed like a Skaal from Solstheim.

[@Ser_Salty]

I was wondering why I didn't recognize it, because I played Skyrim *a lot* and that's a very unique dwemer ruin, but I guess I just haven't played the DLCs as much.

[@inductivegrunt94]

This is basically Skyrim if Sheogorath had full control. I love this already, this is going to be so amazing if you continue this all the way through to the end of the main story and possibly beyond.

[@MarquisSmith]

I'm not sure if I should be embarrassed or proud that I recognised every location. I shudder to think how many hours I've put into Skyrim.

[@Foxtrot369]

Gotta feel sorry for the people inside the Temple of Kynareth, their only two doors lead to a Dwemer puzzle-room on Solstheim & a slum-house in Windhelm's Grey Quarter respectively. Neither of which make for good options if you want to step _"outside"_ for a break.

[@LoreRevolution]

The mod creator mentioned they had to replace doors with their own versions to make the mod work. That's what happened when you were clipping inside the mountain and why there was a mysterious portal outside the starting cave. They have asked players to report where the doors clip into the scenery, so they can fix it. [edit] If I had to guess, the quest markers not updating has to do with the doors all being replaced with the mod's own doors, too.

[@seanmcloughlin5983]

Anyone else disappointed only the doors are randomized, because the random clothes and enemies were always hilarious

[@AgentofChaos315]

You learn something new everyday, apparently there are an odd number of doors in Skyrim

[@kendallchaos]

I’m curious how that works, in theory every door has 2 sides so it should be even

[@ShadoShade]

@KendallChaos While every normal "door" would have a counterpart, there's undoubtedly some doors which may not have a counterpart, like a pitfall loading screen. If you go back up the same "door," there's no actual door. Or perhaps a magic one way portal?

I am more familiar with Skyrim than I am with my own mother and even though I don’t remember the name the instant Jon exited the tutorial and came out in the Dwemer ruin I had PTSD flashbacks of getting stuck for an hour on the puzzle there while doing the Aetherium quest

[@SkaterBlades]

I thought that dungeon was in the dragonborn dlc and was part of the unmarked quest to get the breath of nchuak

It's not part of the Aetherium quest. He's in one of the Solstheim ruins which, ironically, has Jon's least favourite puzzle in the entire game in

If you could find the Clairvoyance spell it might be able to show you the way to your current objective. Not sure if it would work with the randomizer, but if it did the spell would be actually useful for once.
