I’ve bought it 3 times. Once for my 360, once for the ps3 (legendary edition), and again a couple days ago for my ps4 (special edition). A total of $142 and not a single regret
Same here plus one for Xbox one
Guess what you'll get to buy it again on 11-11-2021 😆
Hm pathetic only 3
What about anniversary eddition
I got it free three times. Once as a gift on Steam, the Special Edition (because I had the original), and the Anniversary Edition (because I had the Special Edition).
Am I the only one who actually reads Skyrim books for fun?
I haven't read all of them but quite a few, my favourite is Immortal Blood
We all know you only read the lusty argonian maid...
ChemicalKilljoy1 PSN am I the only one the watches Skyrim lore for fun?
@@jxgreen1985 yes I do. It's about vampires
Of course you're not :D
Fact 102 - Skyrim will be released a total of 102 times before Bethesda is done with it.
And we still won't get any new studio made dlc or content.
Skyrim: Toilet Edition
skyrim edition! Skyrim ok edition! skyrim fine edition! and so on.
LMAO. It's funny bc it's true
Lol especially with Skyrim “Very Special Edition” for Amazon Alexa. I’ve played about two hours of that old school style Skyrim RPG on Alexa and it’s just so silly that Bethesda made that. I thought it was just an E3 joke, but they definitely won some brownie points with me when I found out it was legit shortly thereafter
So dovahkiin is about 6 now, just about old enough to finally start appreciating all those video games.
darksskull I mean not really it's a t or m rated game
dueling fishboy Well, i was 8 when i first played Morrowind
dueling fishboy *When your parents didn’t let you play M-rated games or see R-rated movies until you were 17*
6 years old and playing an m rated game
@@maxschrader3884 GREAT JOB LITTLE BILLY
The reason there's so many Thief references is because one of the creative leads at Bethesda worked on the Thief series too. And both series' share mechanics.
The Wyvern fact is a bit of Misinformation. Wyverns are generally a type of dragon and can't breathe fire and have venomous tails. Considering that the dragons in Skyrim can breathe fire and lack the venomous tail, it's still more accurate to call them Dragons.
@Muriel Grothendick Wytherns don't breathe fire, they actually breathe venom. I've seen a movie about wytherns and the wytherns in that movie spit venom and had a venomous tail. In real life, all dragons are depicted having two legs and two wings
I think they were referring to the difference as it would be in D&D
@@harperthegoblin they were not though. Wyverns aren't really dragons at all, cause let's be honest here, wyverns are not dragons. Wyverns are a smaller cousin to the dragons, but are different in that they can't grow bigger than a Belgian draft horse, only a bittä longer but roughly the size of a Draft horse. Dragons are way bigger and is usually big enough to wipe out whole civilizations in mere seconds. For wyverns it takes at least 1,900 years to do just that. And wyverns can't breathe fire, ice or anything like that. Wyverns can only breathe poison and they're not as deadly as dragons. Plus, the only dragons written down in history, either by runes, textbooks or through words only have 2 legs so, that entire thing with having 4 legs are a misconsuption made by media and by early accounts of dinosaur fossils. Even the Asian dragons are almost exclusivly depicted having only 2 legs, so that's that really
i guess more scientifically “accurate” dragons have their arms attached to wings, like a song of ice and fire
Sweeeeeet roll Alabama... wait.. what?

This is the best comment so far 💀
For those wanting more info on the headless horseman, he's actually Ragnar the Red from the bard tale.
19:35 "he never got to meet the character he was based on" I think it's the other way around....
Orsimer, the Orcs, are Elves. The other Elves don't like it, but they are. Dwarves, the Dwemer, are Elves, too, as are the Falmer.
And Bretons are Half Elves with more Nedic/Atmoran in appearance.
Technically Falmer and Orsimer are corrupted mers. Not real mers.
"corrupted mers", which is to say... Mers. Dunmer are also corrupted and Bosmer aren't exactly Altmer-pure, either. I get your meaning, but that doesn't change their essential nature or heritage.
Then neither are Dunmer. But they ARE Mer.
Heather Atkinson Hell, then the Orcs/Goblins from LotR are fucking elves too. Because they were the OG corrupted elves.
pretty sure number 58 is wrong. If I remember correctly, this is a reference of Morrowind as one of the questions asked when it was building your stats is that when you were a kid a bully tried to steal your sweet roll on your birthday, what do you do. The same situation was then added into Fallout 3
So much editing. I don't think your subscribers realize nor appreciate the work and the info you put on your videos. Excellent Job btw.
Its kinda eye rape tbh.
Aidan Moloney how?
klyzn Yeah, everyone thinks videos take as long to make as they are long, a lot of work goes into these videos
Do you stand still at evry detail that makes up the world?
Though it's not the work and time per se that makes something good. In this case we should rather focus on bringing some dynamic to the mix. This high tempo with no milisecond to breathe, process, appreciate or think could be used as torture.
I was just listening to the Skyrim soundtrack when I noticed my subscription alerted me this video. The Divines are clearly with me today!
Fenix Minerva subscribe me bro 😃
BLESSINGS OF AKATOSH UPON YOU!
blessings of the 8 upon you
Talos is with you.
By the Nine!!
Orsimer, Dwemer and Falmer are technically elves too while Bretons are an elf/man hybrid. Also, when talking about Bretons, you forgot to mention arguably the most famous nationality of Celts irl, the Scottish.
No. Orsimer are pig children. And they worship a turd.
If you think Skyrim is one of the best games ever made... 👇🏻
Cory Pedigo I think cyberpunk 2077 is about to blow it clean out of the water, but never the less, Skyrim is a great game
Still never gonna compete with DOOM
Botw
Eh I way prefer skyrim
Actually it's the 11'th best game ever made. Appropriate, see 11-11-11.
I like how skyrim is set 200 years after oblivion, in skyrim you can find Neloth in solsteim just as you can find him in morrowind. Is morrowind after the events in oblivion? That doesnt even make sense since jiub dies in kvatch and he is clearly alive in morrowind... is Neloth 300+??
Vicodyn haha okay, thanks
I’m pretty sure jib must have been killed or something because dark elves can live for around 400 years I believe
I know this was three years ago but stilllol
I know this is an old comment, but yes, not only does Oblivion happen after Morrowind, but Dunmer can live for a much longer period of time than humans. If I remember correctly, Jiub was killed in Kvatch shortly before the player arrives. Neolth clearly did not get killed in combat.
@@elderscrollsnerd390 damn, neloth an old ass man then
102: there was another elf race living underground, the Dwemer, what means something like Lower or Deeper Elves - most races, including the other elves, misunderstood them as dwarves. Fun-fact 103: there are no dwarves on Nirn at all.
There's also a couple more elf races.
Talos literally ascended. He achieved a state of mind called CHIM that allowed him to basically become Neo after understanding that the universe was a dream.
Oooo, a Skyrim facts video. This gets a like
Insayion 8 subscribe me bro 😃
@Choco Lovers Subs don't mean shit

Drake Martin serana is the best companion
Wyvern - noun a winged two-legged DRAGON
i just happen to pick up Skyrim again a few hours ago. it's a sign!
I like how the music is lowered for the facts involving people who passed away. Respect.
I've always enjoyed watching random fact-videos and never even given a shizzle for who the narrator was or their channel in general.. until I found you that is, i've completely fallen in love with your dad jokes, geekery and happy spirit, tbh I don't even care about half the topics you pick, I just enjoy watching your videos no matter the content
Thanks ever so much! I'm not even a Dad yet - imagine how much worse they will be when I am!
Same, tbh
rugrats search for reptar was quite the game. When i was 9yo i was hellbent on beating it. took my bout 6months. Then you get to play as reptar in the last level (SPOILERS). Decent game for ps1 at least
Harder game than Skyrim. I have most the Rugrats games.
Number 62: he says i live again because he is a character from a previous elder scrolls game
So it's 3 references in one. Army of Darkness. A different game. And another Elder Scrolls Game. (Oblivion I think?)
I never knew Skyrim was THIS good until I watched this video!
Bloxed subscribe me bro 😃
Ok!
You can tell he's never played an elder scrolls game by how he pronounces names/ races
Yep you can
Eh who cares. Personally I think he did a great job with pronunciations and just the whole video in general. I’ve got almost 1600 hours in morrowind and Skyrim (combined, not each). For me, I can tell that Sam made this video for the fans, not necessarily bc he plays Skyrim. Who knows though, I think he probably would’ve played it at some point, but maybe never got into it like some of us do.
Dubstep 4 Dayz lol
Well, some people who have played Street fighter all their lives still pronounce Ryu’s name wrong... it’s re-you (re as in reunion), not rye-you
What would be very interesting if you did a video about Skyrim DLCs there is Alot you can cover with and from my option is one of the best of the DLCs
Us Skyrim nerds appreciate the hard work you put into this video! You definitely deserve even more subscribers. That being said, I subbed! Cheers m8
The skyrim book about the vampire hunter was actually really good.
The dwarves dont use gold for their armor, tools, and construction, they use a special form of bronze alloy
4:44 the dwemer don't use gold, they use a special copper or something.
Tip for the Ebony Warrior: Craft Daedric Armor and a Daedric Sword for Lydia (or any Follower) and use her to keep him busy!
there are 2 star wars references, the hoth ice cave and lydia keeps saying "I have a bad feeling about this"
Wyvern is a type of dragon.Just take a 4 legged dragon, take away it's front legs and boom you have a wyvern. I don't understand how people can be that dumb.
Re. 56, you misspoke: Erik had a character based on him, not the other way around.
the Rugrats game was actually really fun when I was little lol
Speaking of the clear skies shout, one time I was just standing in the courtyard of High Hrothgar and waiting for everyone else to join me and teach me whirlwind sprint and Wulfgar walked up to me and shouted Lok, knocked me over, and then continued walking to his spot like he didn't just do that. The others had arrived outside just after he shouted at me, so all they saw was me picking myself back up. Aside from hearing the bones of a skeleton creaking near Greta after I fetch the amulet she wanted, that was one of the weirdest things that happened to me in Skyrim.
OMG 2 facts after the headless horseman I found him while being a werewolf. This is also the second time I've seen him Edit: Has he ever flown for anyone else?
Omega most likely just a glitch
I found him too the first time i became a werewolf
🤬
Hey man, great video! There were a lot of interesting facts. I was wondering if you were planning on doing a video one day that has jokes that are funny.
Skyrim Exposed. 15:00. #42. Wow so we aren't the "Dragonborn", we are the "Wyvernborn"? This is all very confusing. I will have to now go murder the elders for misleading me for years into thinking I was a dragon when I was really just a lame wyvern. Time to get all 26 different versions of skyrim I have and get to work.
God, I loved this game. I played through it with new characters more times than I should probably admit, lol.
"Technically dragons have 4 legs..." Maybe look into sources older than the 1980s to find details about the mythological creatures of various cultures. The oldest mention of dragons described multi-headed creatures with up to a dozen legs, both with and without wings. The oldest references I can find concerning "wyverns" doesn't even include wings, only calling them great reptilian beasts with venom that could kill a god.
Who else is binge watching facts videos while in quarantine? Oh, just me
101 facts on assassin's Creed
Rogue Guardian he did that
Hindsight is 20/20 lol
But a Wyvern is a type of dragon.
AH I LOVE THIS GAME!!!! It's one of the few games I can play over and over and not get bored of it!!!
Birdie Southwood amen brother
There's more to the "fishy stick" easter eggs all around the game. Google is your friend.
Dovahkiin is actually a badass name considering what it means in Dovahzul and the fact that Dovahzul actually works as a language unlike some artificial languages
I think you can get away with a strange name if it's "Dovahkin Kellermyer"
Dragon is old Greek for serpent and wyvern is old English for viper, which means both means snake. Wyverns are just a type of dragon
I've waited many moons for this video from 101 facts
it has almost become a tradition, or right of passage into the teenage years, for the kids in my family to have played skyrim. Both of my bros have played it, my cousins have played it, my nephews, and just last Christmas I bought the game and gifted it to my two youngest cousins so they could experience the glitches for themselves.
4:43 they don't use gold, it's a special alloy they created which is why it's referred to as "dwarven metal" 7:08 no wonder they're all the same 27:16 that chest isn't even unique, all the merchants have them, some of them are accessible without cheats
Holy cow, I literally just turned on Skyrim and saw this while scrolling through my subscription feed!
the headless horseman is actually a reference to Ragnar the red who was a boast full warrior from roricstead who had his head decapitated by a lass in the bannered mare at whiterum. There is a song about this sung by the bards in-game
21:52 No she doesn't. That line doesn't even exist within the game files.
4:30 You brushed over the fact that it’s at NUMBER 11 on that list
This is the best 101 facts channel
Question and I need answers I love Skyrim I've beat it and played it and love the weapons but I was thinking of playing oblivion should I wait and get the switch lite to play Skyrim?
wyerns are dragons just like a labrador is a dog its a breed of dragons
Sean Bouwman when the terminology wyerns is used I think of a more serpent like creature. Sorta like terraria. What about You?
Sean Bouwman nyesss zaric quote
Dragon 4 Paw/legs/Arms and 2 wings Wyvern 2 Paw/legs And 2 wings. One use magic to create ita fire/elements. The other use its own internal organs to create the elements.
a dragon is dragon dosent matter what it haves or does
No they're different creatures. At least outside of the game. I mean, Bethesda create the lore of their own game so those wyverns are called dragons in that world. Just like those orc looking things are elves in that world.
I’ve bought the og game, legendary edition, special edition, and anniversary edition and would by every iteration of this game if they continue revamping it
I've actually had a couple times where I became a werewolf and developed vampirism.
Dwarves (Dwemer) don't use gold. They've treated an alloy (probably some variant of bronze or copper) with the powers of Tonal Architecture, so time has no effect on it.
Fun fact the definition for wyvern is a two legged dragon.
A certain quest gets your dragon born drunk..... thanks for telling us what that quest was
The kids are just marked as essential, meaning unkillable. So nothing was disabled or removed, they're just protected. You don't need mods to make them killable either, just open the console and flag them as non-essential. This can be done to any NPC that is essential as many NPCs are flagged as such to avoid breaking major quests and the like.
Thanks! I learned a lot from this video.
Wyverns still belong to the draconian family and are therefore still dragons.
21:01 liking that what we do in the shadows reference
27:15 #81 is wrong. The chest in Dawnstar is not every item youve sold. Its the merchant's current stock which replenishes every certain amount of in game hours.
That was awesome!! Thank you Sam!
Orsimer are technically elves as well...
Jackalack313 M So are Dunmer...
Yes.
Ugly elves
Dog of Wisdom Mer = Elf
Skyrim was number 11 on the top games sold 🤔🤔🤔
happy birthday skyrim
The White Gold Concordat doesn't actually give the Thalmor the rights to detain and kill Talos Worshippers. The Empire was supposed to the ones to suppress Talos Worship but they don't suppress it, in Skyrim Alvarr & Hadvar from Riverwood mention that prior to the Stormcloak rebellion everyone in Skyrim still worshipped Talos and also had private shrines of Talos in thier homes and the Empire didn't do anything to stop them. After the Markath incident and Ulfric beginning his rebellion, the Thalmor took it upon themselves to eradicate Talos Worship, thinking that if the Empire doesn't do it they will. So Ulfric is responsible personally for everyone in Skyrim who has been taken away & killed for worshipping Talos. The Empire has a large army camped along the border of Cyrodil & Valenwood. To be ready when the Aldmeri Dominion attacks again.
FudgeMuppet! I see you boi!
Wow, I bought the Legendary Edition in 2015 for almost $30. Such a good deal since the game itself was awesomely legendary.
The character HE was based on? Surely you meant the character based on him
5:07 i got the legendary edition but the heartfire part never worked, strange that. because Todd tends to say: "it just works"
Do 101 facts about Vikings series
2:30 Bro, 63 is NOT the most boring number in mathematics. 63 adds up to 9, which is the ULTIMATE BEST NUMBER IN THE WORLD. The fact that 11 11 11 adds up to 63 in binary makes my schizophrenia tingle
Fun fact a wyvrn is a species of Dragon. In all lore other than asain mythologies a Dragon could be a drake the Dragon with wings on it's back and 4 limbs, a wyvrn which you described, or a wyrm a Dragon without wings
Choosing who to marry and who to adopt was the longest decision of my life.
I have a feeling Skyrim will be re-re-released on PS5/XBSX. And I think that'll be jusssstttt dandy
2 games that I was very excited to buy was red dead redemption 2 and Skyrim.there were only a couple of other games I pre-ordered that was great games as well. I have started new games over time since owning the game and the character I have now is level 58 and I have is abilities building up quite nicely. I hope the new elder scrolls is just as good if not better. Love this game even after all these years I still find new things going on in this game. Thank you Bethesda for making wonderful games over the years.keep ip the wonderful work.
Another fact: Draugar (Plural of Draugr) are actual creatures within Norse mythology which have mind control, reading and psychological powers. They can also shapeshift, "swim" through walls and are near perfectly replicated aesthetically in game. Worst part is, as a religious Norse pagan, I do believe Draugar exist and are the "demons" which are encountered in ghost shows, explaining why they're always little girls in white dresses (on account of them being able to tap into our fears). However, Draugar are not dragon priests, they are actually merely people who drowned at sea, died sitting/standing upright or were not properly buried. Fuck dragons dude, Draugar are so much scarier.
God might get nervous , a man approaches with his weapon drawn .
Only game I can restart over and over again and never gets old. Modded up and still going strong. The glitches just keep things interesting. u never know what or who will get yeeted across the map...😂
I’m farming in Skyrim on my switch in Riverwood while I’m watching this video right now
Fact about skyrim: It takes place in skyrim
seeing those 2 cursors triggers my ocd , pls ALT+TAB two times and put mouse on the far right
With Dawnguard NPCs no longer attack you on sight. Now all they do is pointing out how pale you are and what scary eyes you have. Expect the members of the Dawnguard they always attack. Not even the Vigilantes of Stendarr is that eager to attack you. Even if you happen to have two Dremora Lords with you.
I used to be an adventurer like you then i had kids...
Jorda TheExplora arrow in the knee means they go married
icytaco ah yes I remember that when I married my wife she promptly shot my knee with a bow
Finally! Someone talks about how the dragons are technically wyverns!
Imagine your parents naming you Dovahkin and you get a lifetime supply of TES games and merchandise...
damn man,the day i started to watch videos like this i started to play skyrim so much less than before...i need to stop that but its so interesting :)
Amazing video! I love skyrim!
14:50 we can also call thugs on you to beat you up(ehm. kill.) even when he is dead. And belathor can do same where you knock that potato of his shelf
