I'm more impressed with how my guy manages to pull off a running commentary the whole time

Man, I remember playing Daggerfall when I was like 8... You would be in those dungeons for days, and when you're a little kid those monsters' screams were terrifying.

who else watched this and had no idea what was happening.

puri's runs are the best, the commentary is always on point.

"why yes, floor man I do have a quest"

This game was so ahead of it's time.

You're wrong about the free part. It costs your sanity.

I played this on an ISO crack in the 90s, with no manual and no internet. Never got anywhere, but absolutely loved the experience of D&D in a Doom type atmosphere. Finally went back to it with Daggerfall Unity. Now that I know "what to do" with the main quest, speedruns make sense, because there are ways to get through most areas. But seeing all the exploits you can do here is still mindboggling. EDIT: God I wish I'd seen this before doing the Medora tower section naturally.

They say he's still kungfuing in the sky.

This is...astonishingly impressive and detailed for a 1996 game. I mean...I thought TIE Fighter was the most impressive DOS game, but this is quite impressive. And probably a lot less fun than TIE Fighter for a modern gamer.

In every Elder Scrolls game your start out roleplaying a prisoner. I guess you can call this guy... the Puri Puri Prisoner.

I love this run 7 years later still loving it

I would pay so much money for a new rpg with all those functions.

So many dots... I wouldn't be able to memorize all those dots LOL

Now I understand why Bethesda wouldnt make a Elders Scroll II remake, the map is bloody enormous... just imagine the map design on that with today's graphics XD

Never could get past the Werewolf quest (playing legit in... 1996?) ... ended up just climbing up city walls and sniping guards for infinite loot.

This games' map is unbelievably huge...about 62K sq. mi. That's roughly the size of Oklahoma or Cambodia. Very impressive for 1996! This game had the biggest map of any video game until the upcoming No Man's Sky, I believe.

The Map of Daggerfall is so huge!!! It takes 69 hours to walk across the complete map. I know it because I did it.

fun runner

Is this the only GDQ video to ever start with gameplay? Woowwww, good job guys, now make every other video like this one please.

I cant get over how the skeleton warriors in this game sound like TIE Fighters from Star Wars

Skyrim dungeons: In-Out 6 minutes Daggerfall dungeons: Day 96, I still can't find stairs up. Can you guys imagine going into dungeon like this in 9:00 ???? Amazingggg

20:24 Disclaimer, Todd Howard did not make this game. His first project was Elder Scrolls Redguard, and then from Morrowind on he was on the team

i dont understand why a massively multiplayer game like this hasnt been made. I could deal with the graphics. All the economy aspects would be cool as hell, and the size would make it so fun to play multiplayer. No man's land haha

i really like old dos era games because they all took serious critical thinking and problem solving if you wanted to figure out where to go or what to do next. Besides hearing tips from word of mouth or if your lucky the game has a strat guide you were forced to think outside the box and figure it out. Idk i feel like instant access to all the answers to anything for kids now adays takes the magic of exploring and finding secrets by yourself.

watched this while i cooked breakfast. great run

In Daggerfall you could loot people and be excited to get their whole gear set , in Skyrim you get legit pennies from raiders with all steel gear on . Oh how times have changed 😢

Meanwhile I couldn't even get out of the first dungeon when I was a kid

As an Elder Scrolls fan for over a decade now, I understand less about Daggerfall than before I opened this video.

Daggerfall is still my favorite elder scrolls game

Watching just to listen to the runner explain the run.

Holy shit dagger fall is HUGE

Wonderful run and greatly entertaining streamer. Really sounds like a cool guy

0:23

Daggerfall rocked. My god, I put so many hours into this game.

Makes me wonder if you can even complete Daggerfall in the legit way, if it's so broken.

this run was amazing

For anyone watching this, do your self a favor and play Daggerfall Unity. It is hands down the best way to experience daggerfall today. And it's got some great mods, like... a less sickening skybox with a 3D sun, more miscellaneous quest variety, and my favourite: the terrain height variation fix!

I remember when this game was new. Lots of talk about bugs turned me away. I wish I had tried it. I didn't get into this series until Morrowind.

He kung-fu'd so hard it closed the game :o

AWESOME Run, AWESOME Runner & folks

But is he the law tho

Highly entertaining! Great job all.

This man is the ultimate gamer

Could someone explain howtf to get out of the first dungeon withhin 3s?? "literally cheating"?? "community is fine with it"? 1:40

it's like watching a university lecture....another level

I remember playing this game's demo that I got on a demo cd from some computer game magazine (cant remember what other demos it had) and this game was amazing. I easily put 50 hours in that demo. I was just getting into D&D and this was like my imagination come to life. I remember just jumping everywhere to get my jumping skill up lol. I need to download this game and play it again just for the nostalgia. Also, this run was impossible to follow. I love speedrunning but I dont like it when speedrunners just break the games like this. Its one thing to go through levels really quickly. its another to just stare at the sky and broken ass textures for 30 minutes...

wait. the video stared immidetly? no click here to see the start of the run?

That dungeon is enormous!

How is the use of the "U" key during character creation not cheating? Most categories don't allow you to do things like use the debug console, so...?

Best game cover ever!

Daggerfall should get a remake.

Stupid question real quick: Is there a "no debug shit" category?

You can fix the sandblaster issues in the dosbox config file by doubling the bits.

One of my fav things to do in Daggerfall was to become a WereBear and go on a rampage on a city XD

This is a lot better than Stonekeep.

VENGENCE!

wow impressive for the first time he plays it

This game allows loans , spell creation, spell use while holding items,

How did he zoom in on the travel map?

My first ES was Daggerfall, I really enjoyed it but I was a bit young to truly enjoy it even though I was playing MUDs & hardcore PKing. It felt almost too infinite and randomized for some things. That was double edged for me. I absolutely fell in love with Morrowind, and it was the last elder scrolls I enjoyed though. Gothic 1 & 2 were my favorite of the genre. Check the first 2 Gothic games out(you can skip 3 it was publisher rushed unfortunately) if you like elder scrolls and somehow missed gothic. I’ll never forgive Bethesda for what they did to the fallout series. The only decent one was new Vegas, and they screwed obsidian out of their bonus because it scored an 84 instead of an 85 on metacritic even though they made a better game with Bethesda’s own engine in 1 year than Bethesda has ever done with a decade. Obsidian nearly had to shut their doors. They took to kickstarter and made 3 amazing RPGs pillars of eternity 1/2 and Tyranny. Screw Bethesda they made what 3 good games? Only 2 I’d ever play again being daggerfall and morrowind

9:32 Isnt that a werewolf? opening the door ? for like a split second.

cant even phantom trying to complete this game at a 100% ... O_O

I tried this game, I got destroyed so many times just in the starting dungeon that is amazing

Wow if this game will run on my computer I should play it. It looks great:0

Cool video. Many thanks

What do I press on the custom class screen to reset the skill point distribution? U key doesn't seem to work, and it sounds like he is saying that he just hits the U key?

How do you play this game without falling through floors?

It just works.

23:08 bruh u just saved my night gaming shift

"and then we are going to literally cheat" this is gonna be a good one, isn't it?

Youre like the guy they put in movies thats smashing keys and hacking firewalls, but you're actually doing something😂

Hi. Many thanks for your video. Can you please explain how to use the debug key to reset the counter after -50 during custom class character creation? Thanks in advance!!

2:18 Now what other game have i seen that in

So what kind of key do I need to press and hold for all those keys together at the beginning?

Worth noting, if you buy ANY Elder Scrolls game on GOG, you get Daggerfall and Arena for free, so you don't have to bother with set up.

guys coming up with wall-hacks and buffer jumps and shit like that should QA upcoming games. imagine how longer would dev cycle get, like they would have to redo everything so many times to get things right xD

How do I get that face at 1:17

Is this Daggerfall Unity with mods or the original ?

That sweater looks sharper than a page of Oscar Wilde witticisms that have been folded to a point, dipped in lemon juice and stabbed into someones eye.

Run starts at 1:23

BEST GAME EVER! Thanks :)

What's up with his hair?

that was amazing.

I recommend the channel Grimithr with the channel owner Grimith he is also known as the Demented Sage of Daggerfall He has some nice playthroughs of the game,and he is at a state of playing the game where he can the things these people need to go out of bounds for to find while navigating inside the dungeons

Is that a man in the back right?

Does anybody have the vod for chat? Dreddgasm

Do they have the violence lock on?

I find it hard to believe that Bethesda has been making RPGs since the doom era and yet they can't make a decent Fallout game.

I never looked into it but I like how TES II was a one-man version of Might & Magic.

kong fu's out of the game, interesting

Do you watch spiffing brit 0:31

Is this Daggerfall or Interstellar?

What's wrong with the character's face?

can somebody explain that "The Law" reference?

But why did they put alt f11 in the game?!?!

32:00 "Prune Juuuuuuuice"

the elder scrolls 2: start menu's

waow. no need for mithril then

I wish Skyrim was as big and in-depth as Daggerfall
