Woah this video kinda blew up! When I first made this series it had like less then 20 views for months so I put aside the idea. I enjoyed doing this challenege and wouldn't mind returning to it in the future! 😁

Why do I get the impression that a naked Florida Man who runs through the portal and starts fist fighting a gromite is the kind of champion Sheogorath would dream of?

When the room turned to butterflies as a kid my mind melted and I fell in love with this game even more. Also I never thought I would be scared of haskill

IIRC, the difficulty scaling in Oblivion was *insane*. Just turned enemies into concrete sponges

"let me rest one hour" *sleeps for a day* been there

Ok no joke, but this is kind of exactly how I played it the first time. So, I started my first play through of oblivion and I decided lets do this weird door mission, not realizing it was the shivering isles DLC. I beat the entire thing then I go back to the capital city and lleveled up for the first time and realized that it could've probably been way easier. I leveled up 15 times the first time I actually slept in a bed somewhere after doing the shivering isles quest line.

I hope the Haskill part made you as uncomfortable as me 🧡

I hope you come back to this and bloodmoon at some point, enjoyed both a lot

I wish skyrim had awesome DLC like this, playing the shivering isles produced some of the fondest memories of my childhood.

When I was a kid I would always hit up the shivering isles after I’d make a character cause there’s a group of adventures with steel armor and weapons who die to the gatekeeper as soon as you see him

When you first meet the Gatekeeper he is fighting a group of adventurers,i think 2 or 3 of them die leaving a full set of steel armour and a weapon each,really helps at the start. Great channel btw 👍

The entire grunnmite fight "WHY WON'T YOU DIIIEEEE?!"

What I like to do is, when you're supposed to escort jauffree and martin to cloud ruler temple just don't. It's fun to take them to like kvatch and watch them fight monsters. They're great pawns.

I will never not laugh at the "it's like I'm playing borderlands" joke

Thanks so much dude. Your videos really make me happy

You should do more, seeing people play The Shivering Isles is always a pleasure, and with your challenge on top it's great. I love how it is as if Sheogorath compelled your character to come to his realm and enter naked, to be sure to get the best Champion

Still liking this video 3 years later.

You should definitely make more of this series 10/10 would watch every episode. Side note, been watching all your elder scrolls content love it keep it up my dude 😎

PLEASE UPLOAD MORE! Fantastic content happily subbed :)

Very good video i enjoyed it a lot. Now i need to try this, i never before try to beat oblivion at max difficulty always find it hilarious but its a awesome way to make the dlc content different and longer

i love the shivering isles so such a wild dlc! good to see ya doing a challenge with it i hope you make a new one i enjoy your longer videos like this one.

I love how this also makes sense from a lore perspective....sheogorath would 110% say a naked level 1 guy is worthy of becoming his champion...

Here is the thing guys, in lower levels when the goblins use their weapon they deal actually LESS damage to you instead using their hands, when their weapon breaks and they attack you with their hands they will deal WAY more damage. Meaning that the dagger is a joke and this little frog thing almost killed him with 2 hits, because it does not use a weapon.

Hand-to-Hand is the most useful melee skill for the hardest difficulty IMO. Even just the backwards power attack+a damage fatigue spell works wonders. I have an unarmored Dark Elf monk and I've had more fun with Hand-to-Hand than any of the other melee combat skills lol. Meanwhile the only use I've found for bows on the hardest difficulty is applying poisons

lol, love your Oblivion videos. Hope you'll make some more in the future! Cheers, mate.

Would absolutely love a series of this 👌

Damn, that makes me wanna play Oblivion again. Love the Shivering Isles DLC

Please return to this series! I found it last night thinking it was new, and was kinda sad finding out there were no more. You're living out my dream of replaying the shivering isles but with a twist.

Yeah, I'd like to see more of this. I love challenges like this.

Thanks for uploading all these videos! These are taking me down some nostalgia trips of my many hours playing Morrowind and Oblivion in high school.

I'd love to see you come back to continue this, Shivering Isles is my favorite part of Oblivion

Love ur channel 🙏🏻❤️

Shivering Isles is one of the best expansions in any RPG in my opinion. I remember when I first played it, I felt I was tripping on acid the whole time, it was great.

please make more of this series, I really like it :)

NPC's and summoned creatures raise with the difficulty setting too. That's why on my max difficulty builds I use conjuration and take a follower from the Battleborn Castle DLC (think that's what it's called) at the start of my game. Just spam a low level conjuration spell until you hit 50.

I'm so glad youtube recommended came through with an actual super good channel

Alright, listen here BUDDY. I demand you start this series back up because of how entertaining it is. I played through mostly everything in Oblivion, and this has made me want to play it again. KEEEEEEEP GOOOOOING

Believe it or not your videos help me get through my first day at work

Oh man, this expansion is a master piece

Shivering isles is one of my favorite quest lines for any game, base game or expansion. I would love to see a full playthrough, even if some preparation has to go into it :)

I like this series! Keep it up, shit looks brutal!

I just discovered this and definitley need more!

Death music is playing twice because your soul as a player is dying too

Please continue this, now im hooked and there is only one episode!

Loved that "Haskill breathing" montage

The Haskill sigh montage made my year

Everybody is wrong about horse armor being useless, it fixes Shadowmere's broken ai

When you mentioned the gatekeeper I realized You could've started the killing the gate keeper quest where the band of adventurers attempt to kill the keeper but they all die trying. They all have full steel armor and shields and weapons and potions. That would have been a nice way for you

I never understood max difficulty. I think realistically only enemies should get stat changes. It's pretty unfair how you get less defensive AND enemies deal more damage. I never play this game past half slider just because of how cruel it is

Wish you luck, Keep going

I would have loved to see your character build at the start! Birthsign too!

Would definitely watch more of this, especially if you enjoy playing it!

More Shivering Isles!!! Love it!

I love this!

awesome video 😊

Keep them coming great work.

Just stumbled across this channel. Great stuff.

Really enjoyed this video, CallMeKevin!

This is where the 100% Resist Normal Weapons/100% Reflect Magic build comes in reaaal handy.

The whole time I'm yelling to go get that full suit of steel armor from the dead guys at the gatekeeper

I would love to see more of these.

Great competition

This is so much better than Skyrim videos, fek, whenever I watch Skyrim videos I never get the urge to reinstall it, but this and your Morrowind videos are making me want to reinstall them, maybe I'll buy them off steam so I don't have to look for the discs.

would definitely like to see more of this.

A proper challenge 🤟 working my way through your videos for the third time 🤪 hope you're good 👍 think that's enough emojis

Nothing says Champion of Sheogorath quite like abandoning all of your material posessions and hurling yourself stark naked into a portal to Oblivion after skinny dipping and swimming like 2 miles into the middle of an island in the Niben Bay

Going to the shivering Isles naked...sounds crazy? You'll fit right in

„I‘m just a naked man in a chair. Here we go.“ This is exactly the kind of champion Sheogorath would have liked most

I would love to see more of this series.

When the supreme beings of the entire universe and dimensions judge the human race , the butterfly animation of shivering isles will be our best defense in our case

The breathing part with Haskal is hilarious

@3:33 Phil Swift rides down from the clouds on an airboat

Do make more of this, I love the shivering isles.

Please make more of this. I'd be nice if you could finish the whole thing. That'd be something.

I accidentialy went to the shivering isles first instead of leveling up on the main land. So after I like got to level 14 I left the shivering isles for the first time to face the actual Main story line and world…

Best part of Oblivion

I knew I was gonna like this after you said “I can take one of them, I can’t take two.” Suddenly this game is now interesting! lol Good luck Mister Micky!

This needs a sequel

This reminds me all the way back when I first played oblivion didn't know you had to sleep to level up more did I know you could level up so I ended up beating half the game and a lot of the sidequests before I wanted to get the dark brotherhood dagger slept then leveled up

that haskill edit was unnerving LMFAO

you need to learn the "spin around the enemy and punch until they run out of stamina and fall down" _move

Really should have made this an ongoing series hha I would deff watch it

I want to see more of this challenge 🥰🥰🥰

Keep this series going

I enjoy. More please.

"Why does the death music play twice every time?" The game felt you deserved it.

The adventurers that fight the gatekeeper drop armor, though you already probably know that.

Haskel: **breathing sounds** **endless breathing sounds**

I would love to see more of this series, though i think after you get some better gear you will walk through this like nothing.

Any chance for more videos of this challange? it is awesome :D

back in the day when i ordered the dlc abroad together with my dad. fell in love with oblivion but this was just mind blowing as a kid the waiting for it to drop on the floormat. Goes together with the feeling of figuring out runescape membership as a kid

Great video

This is great!

Grummite had the funniest death animation. Lmao

Best DLC ever!

Please more of this challenge

Good vids

I loved Oblivion, both modded and unmodded. Granted stacking mods was high and I ended up doing random whacky stuff instead of doing the quest mods missions.

Yo more of this would be awesome. And Bloodmoon obviously, but I feel like there are enough people hitting you up for that.

honestly though, sheogorath would love this
