Yes, ty for addressing the night of tears. I constantly see comments talking about Nords being racist against elves. Well gee, I can't imagine where that came from. People see thru their own lens, because I don't see very many comments about how dark elves have enslaved the Argonians and the Khajiit.
Lmao the way you guys talked about em the companions sound like boethiah worshippers. They really are a daedric cult
Has Ysgramor heard of the high elves?
good day to you boys!
Do you need to get the legendary?
Scott, why do you have a karen hair cut? lmao
You guys didnt really delve into the dude that started all the not only nords companions which i think is a cool story
I dislike Ysgramor because he is genocidal maniac. A group of snow elves destroy his settelment and he decides to wipe out the whole race. People hate the Thalmor for being racist but they are only trying to take over a portion of the world instead of wiping out its inhabitants.
that is true they're the only faction that needed it like the dawnguard vs the vampires
Loving the podcast, guys! Would you consider doing an episode on vampires?
The "honorable" Companions: The highest ranking members are werewolves who drank their brethrens blood after their forebears made a pact with some witches. They will "settle" any dispute in your favor if you give them money, basically like the mafia. If you can make a claim that someone is a bandit or a witch they will kill almost anyone, and anyone in proximity to that person, without proof or investigation.
The "evil" Silver Hand: The guys who for some reason don't like the Companions.
Me: The lvl 70 dragon soul sucking Nord who two-shot Alduin, saved the world twice, took down the dark brotherhood and journeyed to Sovngarde and back. But who then for some reason decided to join the Companions over the Silver Hand and now enjoys being called a "whelp".
I wish there was a game set during the time of Ysgramor.
Last time i was early Youtube comments were still creative……
keep calling it the night of tears, and i will keep calling it the night of cheers.
fuck all the human nords, elves had to protect what belonged to them.
this story always triggers the hell out of me .. you know what .. i'm dropping this at 2:13 every time the night cheers is mentioned, for me the elves are on the right, and humans are the wrong. night of cheers where the elves regained what was taken from them from the invading occupying cursed human nords race!
and for me the night of cheers will always be a pride! to have. death to the nords.
whole lotta slander
whole lotta slander
The Silver Hand are a bunch of Bandits and Criminals. Ysgramor might have tolerated the Bosmer and respected their hunting/Green Pact. Also the Silver Hand could have wanted to kill all the Companions and claim the Skyforge but didn't want to have to deal with the guards. I say all hail Talos and Ysgramor and the Companions. Nothing wrong with being a Werewolf either.
Additionally with the Skyforge it has power more ancient then Ysgramor and the Companions. Including with the Underforge there is that stone basin and totem pedestals. So what does that mean? Perhaps the Werewolves are deeper lore then you think. Boethiah is one of the most evil Daedra and I say the Companions are quite honorable. Also all the Circle and the drunk treat you quite decent. Additionally Aela is one of the best characters and I respect her strength/accepting of Lycanthropy. As well as her pragmatism. What's more is I like your guys content in many ways however, I disagree with sooooo many of your opinions about things.
b hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
you can kinda join the forsworn, they have conviction o'plenty
I definitely think Kodlak accepted being a werewolf in a time when he didnt think about the afterlife. Which is interesting to see as I think its Farkas, is also at an age where he doesn't think about the afterlife and opposes the cure. I'd like to think Farkas is probably Similar to how Kodlak was.
If the snow elves put Sarthal to the torch because of the eye of magnus, why didn't they take the eye with them.
Question has drew always been with fudgemuppet
Scott's highlights looking fresh as hell, and if those aren't highlights then I'm jealous
Hey fudgemuppet I know you probably dint review mods but when I use the orinatior mod on xbox where it expands the perk trees I run into the issue where Nords get free level up and that they just need to do 1 thing in every skill to get to to level 16 skill which could level them up far to fast which I think is overpowered. They could easily get to 4 or 5 by barely doing anything.
500 is quite large for a war band, especially if they're inspired by the Norse,
Couldn't the companions use the thum to bend reality? If so explains how they got the ship to whiterun area
Y’all just need to have about approx. ~1 more convo before recording these podcasts. I just feel as tho I’m lacking the intensity of your scripted vids boys, idk 🤷♀️
Just hit me that i really have been watching this channel throughout my life for 5 years
Yunno they could always repair parts of the Hall as time went on, right? Doesn't have to be magic that's keeping the Hall in good health, I mean there's missing planks here and there in the roof 😂
Is your guy's podcast on Spotify ??
Omg guys you're almost to 1 mil. I'm so proud, been watching since some of the first builds you did, I found you through MxR that's how long ago
Except Farkas. Farkas is the broest of bros.
Funny that you mention Jesus, because I’ve always thought of the Companions and and the Harbingers as the Israelites and their kings. It doesn’t parallel exactly, but it’s kinda cool.
love you guys
The Silver Hand being offshoots of the Companions makes sense. I think they are filled with non-Nords because they were made out to be a pretty generic faction. I enjoy Skyrim a lot (mainly thanks to mods to be honest) but one of my biggest gripes with it is the fact that the Silver Hand vs Companion questline is so shallow. :/ I would have loved to become an epic warewolf hunter.
The Companions are a bunch of stupid, fake fucks. For what we know the Silverhand might be the good guys honestly.
While I’m sitting bored at work this is what I imagine my last three brain cells are doing. I swear I just discuss the elder scrolls with myself.
Companions are definitely lacking in TES5. We have a lot of overhauls for the mages guild but no one has ever done it for the companions and their questline. I too feel like the Silver Hand is a splintered faction from the companions originally. They should of been a joinable faction or atleast a resolution to change the direction of the companions back to the old ways. We won't see a companions again in TES6, we may get one in ESO when Whiterun is released. If we get the Druadach Mountains in TES6, maybe there could be a companion npc out there doing a quest.
Have you ever wondered whether or not werewolves can lick themselves the same way dogs do? Just imagine those Companion Staff Meetings.
Itfeels good to watch because it feels like I'm in a discussion abut the lore. I don't have a lot of friends that play any RPGs so I don't get to talk to anyone about it.
Ysgramor is not a dragon, he's a nord in Sovngarde
Nice
I like to think the rot is a side effect of him rejecting being a werewolf or that it's a curse from hircine to keep him from freeing his soul, and or the souls of others from his hunt.
I was disappointed by the Companions and Silverhand storyline tbh an organization of werewolf hunters should be more akin to the dawnguard not a ragtag bandit group :/ I once read a really good FanFiction once about a former companion member who was comparable and a close friend to Kodlak in age, skill and honor and found out the circle are werewolves felt betrayed because family except his youngest son were killed by a werewolf years ago and founded the silverhand with his son and another badass companion member who disliked each other a lot but looked past it to destroy the inner circle it'd make a great mod. Too bad Silverhand isn't Dawnguard esque organization who you have the chance to join before you became a werewolf and kill the inner circle but the Companions stay intact because no more werewolf leaders so their beef with them is ended
Hey fudge an idea just dawned on me. They have the loremasters library on ESO website where we learn a good amount of lore from all different type of things in the game . You ever think of covering these in future videos even take polls see if ppl want to watch that? I just think it would be a cool idea to help illustrate these stories.
This live is a GREAT MATERIAL for the mod I'm working on about the SILVER HAND. I'll incorporate a lot of this on my questline!!!
You guys should do an Easter egg episode
What about a class build where you wear heavy armor with spellbreaker shield, and you use magic in your right hand and do a lot of shield bashes and magic blasts and only pull out a mace when your magicka runs low. This is my favorite play style and I feel like no one ever tries it but you will have fun
It's been a while, but I'd like to beg again that you guys do an RP playthrough of a bethesda title. Any of your characters, and game, I would watch the hell out of that.
