We all come across them, videos about the ES games that are either hilarious, or extremely cool. Often both. So I thought, "Why not put them all in a single topic?" There is no general ES series forum, so I decided to put it in the Sky forum, since it is the most recent game, probably with the most vids made of it.

Note that I don't mean Let's Play style videos, where someone is chronicling a characters gameplay. Like King Coin's Aravi videos, or the ones I put up in my own video topic. I mean things inspired by the game. Hopefully the ones I start with will make it clear.

First off, Wes Johnson takes an arrow to the knee

Hitler takes an arrow to the knee

Top 10 Fus Ro Dah's

Skyrim Guard in Athens

Peter Hollens & Lindsey Stirling do the Skyrim Theme

Skyrim 2012

This video here is one of my favourites. Be warned, though, it contains strong language from the start. Still damn funny, though.

And this one[/url] by the same feller is a good laugh too. No swearing this time, though.

...Excellent!...

This one is our most beloved of Oblivion videos in this house...The majority of views to this is probably us... ...

BTW...I just watched the Hitler one again...I'm crying with laughter...again...I applaud them heartily!...

Good idea for a thread, SubRosa. This thread was needed. One place we can put up ALL the funny vids we can find!

100 Ways to Die in Skyrim. It is only part 1. The second part did not seem all that good.

Amazing Horse!

(Warning: not safe for work)

Thomas, I'm going to have that song stuck in my head for days...

And another video, which basically encapsulated my reaction to Skyrim being announced.

Good one. I like when he runs past all the games about a minute in. He's got Fallout, he's got Red Dead, he's got Dragon Age, and he's got Mary Kate & Ashley's Magical Mystery Mall!

Well, it is recorded as one of the very best video games ever made, and for good reason. It's like the Nightfall of gaming!

I was thinking the same thing! Love that taste in games he has!

Maybe I should get it. Looks like a game my daughter might like. I can always use that as my excuse. lol.

I love this one, especially when he has the Gatorade Potion of Haggling.

Has anybody seen the Skyrim reference in NCIS yet?

Lydia NO!

I caught that one on the Beth forums. I am not a NCIS watcher, so it is mostly lost on me. I should ask my mother about it, she loves that show.




Of course there is also this Lydia vid too

I don't watch it either. One of the characters on that show kinda bugs me. I guess the point is the fact that a Skyrim reference is mentioned on prime time is kinda cool. To me, anyways. And only those of us who play will actually get the joke.


those Lydia ones are great!

Conan O'Brien Reviews Skyrim.

Feel the wrath of Mr. Buttons!

That was hilarious!

Telekinesis Trick Shots.



ETA: I should have mentioned, they say a naughty word.

That was so funny Grits! I've never seen people so excited over throwing a cabbage around.

Those two guys needed to get a room after that last cabbage in the bucket...

Emperor Obama.

"You what? You want to be president? Hahahaha! Wait, your serious aren't you? Your better off being my princess, hahha. Now get out of here kid, go pay some taxes."

Pervert Nord and scared Redguard.

Some of you may have a "different" sense of humor, but I know the folks at the official forums love these videos. Dirty humor, yes, a different comedic atmosphere than some "clean" people may have. I find them(the videos) amusing.

ha ha the Obama one had me laughing a bit. The Redguard voice actor sounds kinda like him, too.

This was hilarious! The arrests and blood on the cabbage - then the stats! LOVE this vid !!!

COPS in Skyrim

COPS Episode 2

Oh, these are hilarious. A new episode every week?! I’m in!

Take a good look at that pic, everyone. Look closely at his legs. That was Gunter's follower, I forget the guy's name. Anyways, he somehow managed to walk into one of those half-shell clay pot things we can find in draugr barrows. His legs somehow made it through the shell, and he was actually able to move like that.

I wish I had a video...that was one of the most hilarious moments I've ever seen in a videogame, him waddling along...



This one isn't as funny, but look closely at Sadia's arms. She's managing to stir that pot while holding a broom as well. Now that's some multi-tasking!

It looks like Farkas is being hatched in that first one. At least I think that is Farkas. Maybe it is Vilkas. They both look the same.

I have seen variations of the second one many times. An NPC does an animation to do something like sweep or eat, and the animation automatically equips the appropriate object. But somehow it does not get unequipped after they are done and start a different animation. I even see it happen with the pose mod I use for my player characters.

There are some funny pics from the Ulfric fangirl threads on the official forums:

Party time

The alternate beginning of the game

Che Stormcloak

A postcard

Operation Kneecap

How Toryyg really died

One of Skyrim's greatest hits

And the other

My two faves, lol !!

This one has become a household staple. We watched it again this morning to ward of Monday busride blues.

Skyrim creatures on Earth. I really love the Hagraven.

YES! That's a great video. Love the pack of werewolves. And the dragons on top of the water tower!

Felicia Day's episode of Skyrim Cribs. This was tons of fun. It is great to see that even a star like Felicia Day has exactly the same complaints as the rest of us. "Why is my Housecarl giving me lip!"

The Argonian husband was the funniest thing in that video! Oh and Lydia's mess.

OMG, these were hilarious!

“Who owns you, Jordis?!” I love the evidence of Lydia’s tantrum.

I just watched this! I love Felicia Day! I only know her from Buffy, but she really is hilarious. Haha

I like the COPS ones. I watch COPS once in awhile, whoever made that vid got the camera work and voices down perfect!

I was waiting to see if they'd have a chase scene (those are my faves on the real show) and sure enough there is one, with dogs as well.

I found some more by KristenNedopak (who did To Lydia With Love)

Skyrim Parodies Teaser

Stealth Attack

Carry These Burdens

The Curses of Nature

Lol I really like the first two! The funnies thing in the Stealth Attack one (to me) is not Lydia blowing the stealth attack, it's at about 0:21, when the Forsworn are all staring at their weapons! I dunno why...they just seem so consumed with their weapons, all serious-looking.

Also the part where Lydia says "Hey look a cave! I wonder what's inside!" after doing a finishing move on the other follower! Ah man, these vids are endless....and I gotta get to work. Dammit!

Check this out, a friend told me about this.

For those who can't see it: if you put a basket or kettle on an NPC's head, they won't be able to see us as we steal stuff!

Lucan looks hilarious with the basket on his head, acting like nothing is different!

I've heard of the old bucket on the head exploit. I never bothered trying it out myself though.

MR MOOCHIE?

NEED I SAY MORE?

This is Sparta!

I like at about 1:00 when the guard says "I need you to stop all that shouting!"

What is that from? This is Sparta ... seems like it's from a movie or something.

300

It's a movie about Sparta and is AWESOME!

Ah, okay. I'll have to check it out at some point.

300 is one of the worst movies I have ever tried (and failed) to watch. But it did spawn some hilarious memes, like Caketown

I think I'm about have an anneurism.
