_"Is that ... fur? Coming out of your ears?"_ *Khajiit will pretend you did not just say that.*

Superpowers in exchange for no sleep? Well I already have half of that.

“Is that fur, coming out of your ears?” Me, an argonian: my what

Dragonborn: *wearing a helmet* Guards: “is that fur coming out of your ears”

Skyrim- Is being a Skooma addict worth it?

I’m going to play a werewolf traveler 1. Outside of towns, you must be a werewolf 2. No fast traveling 3. Profit

Me:*Turns into wear wolf* Homeless people in the holds:”Never should of come here”

Me a orc with berseker range on: Turn in a wereolf and rush to a bandit fort. Bandits: Why do i hear boss music?

Guard: Is that fur, coming out of your ears? My Khajiit: What? Fur? Oh my, I'm sooooo sorrry. It's like I'm part animal or something!

The only kind of werewolf I want to be is the companion-version. In total control, disease immunity and stronger and faster than almost every type of enemie. The best about being a werewolf: Hunting vampires without the risk of becoming a vampire yourself.

6:36 WHOA! Sign ME up...oh wait, that's its tail nvm.

Reasons I prefer Werewolf over Vampire: -Prey on animals, the dead, and the undead -Can go out at any time of day -Just generally looks better -More involved prince -Less micromanaging of things like hunger

Love werewolves but they felt underpowered in Skyrim. Especially compared to the vampire lord. But I’ll always become one so I don’t have to deal with the vampire aids disease.

Next time: is being a mudcrab worth it?

Hircine seems chill for a Daedric Lord, so going to his hunting grounds wouldn't be the worst fate.

“Is being a werewolf really worth it?” I like being a werewolf. It really helps me when I hunt Vampires with the Dawnguard.

Probably would take the gift. Hircine is a very fair daedra and would be dope to serve. I would just hunt vampires and vigilants constantly to piss off Molag-bal and Stendarr. Hircine rewards those who relish the hunt!!!!

Not gonna lie, half of my hope for Elder Scrolls VI: Black Marsh comes from my desire to see werecrocodiles

I wasn't too impressed with the Silver Hand. They seemed less interested in saving humanity from the werewolf menace and more interested in capturing extreme fighting animals for their pit fights.

Pro's: - Looking awesome - Sending enemies running with a roar - Sending enemies flying with your bare hands - Immunity to being weighed down by loot - Quadruped sprint, useful for when horse is unavailable - Immunity to diseases Con's: - No resting health regen - Villagers attacking you (out of envy) - Getting called out on fur in your ear (also out of envy)

But how does a khajiit turn into a werewolf. Cats into dogs WTF

I almost always play a Khajiit so I thought the fur coming out of ears was just a Khajiit thing

Companion werewolves are AMAZING. You have full control over yourself, and you’re super fast and strong.

Me:*Getting torn apart by bandits* Me:Okay I need to transform Bandits:*attacks me* Me:*Spends ages transforming* Bandits:*Kills me during lengthy animation Me:😦

Sure the transformation looks cool, and the strength and disease immunity are nice, but that speed is what makes me really want it. Y'know when your horse rushes into combat with you and dies, leaving you stranded while you still have to go someplace that you can't fast travel to? Sucks don't it? With werewolf though, just wait for night, transform, and run. Horse no longer needed.

I've always preferred werewolves to vampires aesthetically. However, I think full blown immortality for vampires trumps the benefits of being a werewolf. There is one big thing that makes me reconsider both, and that is the afterlife aspect. Molgbal's realm is 110% not worth it. Hercine's realm on the other hand doesn't sound completely terrible. Still given that we know multiple afterlifes exist in Elder Scrolls I'm inclined to possibly stay mortal, especially if I've got the option of Sovengard.

"You may have to put up with odd patches of fur" *Laughs in khajiit*

I have no idea why this popped into my head, but at the end when he said "would you risk it?" - I instantly thought "Would you risk it for a Triscuit? Might be a competing slogan for Klondike bar.....

Before even watching the video, I'll just say right off the bat: From a gameplay perspective, there is literally no reason not to be a werewolf. From a gameplay perspective, the only reason to not be a werewolf is if you want to be a vampire and the two aren't compatible. Unlike vampires, werewolves have no gameplay drawbacks. You're never forced to enter beast mode, so you only use it when it's convenient for you. When you're not in beast form, you can enjoy a passive immunity to disease without any negative side-effects.

So... Aela is the "hairy" type?

Nobody: This comment section: I S T H A T F U R ??

The physicalities of werewolves tells us that their transformation brings unimaginable pain. And how certain plants and berries kill werewolves by stopping the beast blood.

If Lycanthropy was uncontrollable due to rage or hunger, werewolves would make the worst office workers. Running out of staples, their computers crash, the copier jams or they have to work through lunch and.....rrrrrrrrrarrrrgh!

Yes, I become a werewolf just for the disease immunity.

"is that fur coming out if your ears?" Middle aged gamers "......"

As a hunter I worshiped Hircine with all my heart. Offered Him pieces of my preys, and learned what he could teach me. Then, after decades of hunting, I decided to become a werewolf. Until the very end of my life, I was dedicated to Him. I was ready to become a part of his eternal Hunt. Then, I died, and was amazed by the beauty of His lands and territories, it was the place I belonged to....Then Akatosh arrived, reminding me I was dragonborn. I was kicked out of Hircine's realm. Damnit.

Whenever I see werewolves and vampires, I always try to imagine what their situation would be if they had self-control. Vampires for example.... they seem to only and always feed on humans. Werewolves however could live off of wildlife alone if they are strong enough of mind... in theory I'd imagine. That is why I'll always prefer werewolves over vampires. :p

Werewolves are op 1: if in a crowd just constantly use howl and slowly take them out 1 by 1 2: enemies way stronger than you get thrown around like rag dolls 3: fast

being a werewolf literally means you can oneshot an entire dungeon when u are lower levels....even at high levels tbh lol

A video idea is how the races of Tamriel believe what happens after you die

Werewolves are natural-born vampire killers. Hail lord Hircine.

The reason why i see being a werewolf good is when I'm carrying too much

- " what are the upsides?" - "well you get super strength and claws and a few cool powers!" - "what are the downsides?" - "You might get... upset... and kill your family..." -"hmmmm, OK, I'll do it!"

PROS: -Massive power increase -Become incredibly dangerous and capable of overpowering any mundane opponent easily -Immune to all illnesses -Can survive in the wild easily -Look awesome CONS: -Can't get wasted with the vigilants of stendarr on a weekly basis Yeah, that'll be a hard no

Skyrim shuffle, if you can't do the skyrim shuffle, i can teach you, here's a tissue 🕺

6:31werewolf Was packin heat 😂🤣

"Is being a werewolf worth it? Yes." *credits roll*

Is being Nazeem worth it?

Is being a sweetrole worth it?

There is a book in Skyrim that gives some information on what physically happens to a person when they transform. I'm trying to remember off the top of me head. But, I remember it saying something about the heart rate increases and that it is stressful on the heart. So, it seems like a stressful and painful transformation. I don't know if they are still suffering once they are fully turned. But, I think it is possible that some are not physically able to handle the transformation and could suffer from a heart attack. From just observation it seems that how a person handles the transformation depends on the person. The twins Farkas and Vilkas could probably help us understand it a bit more. Farkas is physically strong, dull witted but his temper is more like that of your family pet dog. They said he had a difficult transformation. When you cure him, he says it feels like dipping into a warm mug of mead. That he had aches that he didn't know he had. So being in beast form is physically exhausting to the human form. I'm not sure if he ever lost control. If he did, I don't think he remembers. But, I don't think Farkas remembers much of anything. He seems to be pretty much the same before and after he is cured. Vilkas on the other hand, seems to be struggling with it. He is physically fit. But, he is the more intelligent one of the twins. So his senses are not dull. He is more aware of it. So, I think he is overthinking it and it becomes an obsession. He's more short tempered and edgy. It clouded his judgement and it was easy for him to be blinded by vengeance. He was worried that the blood lust would over take him. Both him and his brother seemed very relieved, once they are cured.

"Is that fur coming out of your ears?" "Yes, do you like it? It's a natural ear-warmer. Pretty handy in cold Skyrim." :D

Yes, imagine all the hot werewolf tail you would get

I loved my berserk orc werewolf build. You still retain the berserk bonus in wolf form and if you are a fully upgraded wolf with the ring you get from the werewolves in solstheim you become pretty much OP. Also hot keying ring of hircine for easy access helps too. I remember tearing and eating through entire dungeons with the build and never once going back to human form until all enemies are long dead. I miss this game sometimes.

One of my favorite moments from Skyrim was doing the final showdown with Harkon as a werewolf van helsing style

When ever I transform against an opponent I say "Foolish child this isn't even my final form!!!"

with moonlight tales - yes.

"What big ears I have?" you should check out the rest of me...

Play Skyrim in 2020, become werewolf and it's perfect.

most people seem to be missing one of the most fun things about being a werewolf.. the power attack that launches enemies. especially if you have it so you and your follower can transform into a werewolf, and start throwing enemies around. they fly across the room and takes a few seconds to get up, by which time you can both be ripping them apart as they try to stand back up.

Dude I'd give my left nut if I could be the kind of werewolf they depict in Skyrim. With the exception of some sub-par sleep there's no downside. Who wouldnt want to be able to turn into a terrifying beast on command and retain your self-awareness? Imagine how you could use something like that in the real world... Neighbor wont keep their pets inside or on a leash? Tired of it shitting in your yard? Just shift next time the owners are out of the house for the night and eat the damn dog. People keep trespassing on your property with ATVs and the like? Just turn into a werewolf and chase em off. Nobody will believe em but I promise they wont be back on your property again! Got a bolt stuck? Dont quite have the muscle to get the fucker loose? Make sure nobodys around and just use some of that wolf man elbow grease on it. And if they did happen to see you... just smile. Who are they gonna tell?

I become a werewolf, but rarely transform. It's nice when I need to dish out some serious melee damage outside of stealth, but the loss of benefits from most gear and the ability to use spells is a big drawback to me. It's more of an OS (as in, "oh, s***!) thing.

I think that if you are blessed directly by Hircine, then you have complete control over lycanthropy. However, if you are bitten/infected, it becomes pot luck as to whether you become feral or just hangry, and when/if you are forced to transform.

A disturbing fact about Skyrim is that no one can go to the bathroom, so people are constantly peeing and shitting in their clothes. If your a werewolf, you don't need to worry about that. Just lift a leg in your neighbor's garden and be done with it.😺😼🐺

I doubt you guys will read it but licantropy In TES isnt that random if ou havent been converted by hircine himself, control of the transformations, frquency, blodlust, etc all depends on the strain. Fun fact: in the second era (ESO) there was a strain of licantropy in highrock that not only could control their transformations, bloodlust and kept their mind mostly intact when transfomed, but also could feed on roots and fruits and even were organized. Sadly a group of reachman raised an ancient alpha from the dead and made him raise a werewolf army to take over high rock, they even had infiltrators acting as spies on settlements and took over many settlements including camlorn. After the reachman eand the alfa were killed, the werewolves disbanded and the daggerfall covenant decided to purge them because they were too dangerous.

I always liked werewolves more than vampires. American Werewolf in London is one of my favorite movies.

Thanks for this video!

I wonder where the dragon born ends up when he dies. Sworn his soul to lile 13 daedra.

Diesease Immunity then forget about it

You had me sold until you said shitty sleep

I felt that being a were wolf was a bit too op. So I got a mod that unwillingly transforms you into a werewolf depending on the moon and what chance you’ll transform. I love the uncertainty of it, and how it can be inconvenient during a quest. It makes it funny and unpredictable!

Werewolves in eso: take extra poison damage Skyrim: disease immunity 🤔

I'm really torn about this, I would love the hunt but I prefer full control over myself in any situation. Vampire seem like fun but if it means going to Coldharbour after death I would probably spent most of my life trying not to die instead living and having fun.

The Dragonborn's soul isn't affected by vampirism or Lycanthropy. You go to the spirit world of the avatar Sovengard. Body affected, mind unafflicted

Thank you for the advice

Guard: "Is that fur coming out of your ears?" Dovahkiin: "Big deal. There are women with feathers coming out of their chests."

And here's where I recommend including a mod. In this case, Moonlight Tales. Again, there's added challenges, and the benefits are worth it, if you can overcome the new limitations. Without changing default settings, full moons, once every 12 in-game nights, will force your transformation. Another downside is that the perk that allows you to feed on animals and monsters still allows you to extend your bloodlust, but does *NOT* improve your perk progression. Only victims with Black Souls can push this progression. The best initial benefit I've noticed is the Wolfkin Alliance feature. In other words, all wolves and werewolves always recognize you as one of their own, regardless of your form, and will not aggro at you unless you attack first. In fact they may even come to your defense as needed.

I’ve spent many months worth of time alone in the mountains. Learning to track, survive, and flourish on my own. I hate being around lots of people and for the most part enjoy being left alone. I would totally say yes, it’s worth it to me

The sole reason I’ve had difficulty determining which I like more is due to the immortality factor, if werewolf’s were like the Lycans from underworld, immortal just like vampires, it’d honestly be so easy to choose a werewolf/lycan

My routine on skyrim. After prologue. -Go get the lover's stone power. -Companions- immune to disease -Main-until i get unrelenting force -Thieves guild- skelaton key and nightingale armor -Dark brotherhood -dawnstar -the academy -dawnguard -markauth (everything revolving around it) -everything in capital -All the side quest -main quest -dragonborn and everything on the island.

Remember, Hircine's realm is all about the hunt - whether you're the hunter or the prey is just as mutable as the werebeasts.

I guess it would really depend on the nature of Hircine's realm. how literal is Hunting? do you only have hunting animals for sport and food? can you instead hunt for knowledge? probably not but hunting for eternity sounds boring

"That thing! It was unlike any creature I've ever seen. Faster than any man, stronger than a bear." -Some terrified traveler

Great vid m8

Depends if your doing a FudgeMuppet Build that requires it.

There's something I don't understand: in Skyrim, Sindimg apparently was able to actually speak while in beast form. Is this the case to thr werecreatures in general? Or is just a randomness between many others?

Also, possessing the Ring Of Hircine might let your character live a very long life, like it did for one of the characters in Bloodmoon (though note in that game putting on the ring transformed you into a Werewolf anytime of the day for 6 hours whether you are infected or not, and you did not need to kill a humanoid NPC if your transformation was the result of the ring, while in Skyrim the ring is only really useful for people who are Werewolves)

I like being a lyncathrope, especially with the Dawnguard dlc. Sleep bonuses are nice though. I have a build where my character kept the lycantrophy because she wanted to find a cure for everyone with the beast blood.

What if I told you that in Hircine's realm of the Hunt you're not the hunter ...

What about other werebeasts?

My Skyrim caracter: "Khajit" Guard: "is that fur coming out of your ears?" Me: "Dude. I'm a Khajit you moron."

6:17 both of my play throughs at the time I’ve played khajiit and I was always annoyed when a guard asked me that

Hell yeah, I once took on a dragon in werewolf and won!

I used the disease to walk skyrim faster. Its better than horses

i already handle the “ wait i know you” from the guards

Guard: "Is that... _Fur_ coming out of your ears??" My character😾: "This one has _MUCH_ fur coming out of his pelt! It comes with Khajiit territory..."

Hircines blessing is pretty cool, especially thinking about his realm as an afterlife. Otherwise, I'd rather have vampirism, since you have more control of your actions as such.

*You talked about afterlife with the vampire and this. Can you talk about afterlife in a given video and include what happens when someone is cursed/infected but gets cured?*

Is a werewolf worth it? Me: hell yeah especially you know that annoying main quest when you have to be a spy in the elves party welp i transformed in level 5 to a wereqolf and killed everyone pretty worth it annoying main quest

Fun video Scott
