Imagine a disease riddled Argonian walking into the companions and asking "Yall got any silver weapons? I'm gonna need one soon..."

"Humanoid creatures are known for having a weakness to being stabbed." I really hope someone makes that a loadingscreen tip one day.

In Survival mode, the diseases are even worse. Among other things, you have no magicka/stamina regen at all.

After the Run the argonian was sent to the nearest hospital in where he was quarantined and tested for every single disease known to man.
unfortunately three days later he escaped his quarantine and is now being hunted down by every single faction.

"I let my blood which might as well be a bioweapon at this point seep into the floorboards"
you can always count on challenge speed runs to have some glorious quotes

Today I learned that Droops is a disease in Skyrim, and that vampires apparently aren't immune to it.
It's definitely an oversight, but I like to imagine that the reason the blood pool doesn't give you droops is because vampires aren't immune to it, so the vampires make sure to prevent droops infected blood from entering the pool

You know, I would think that with the "Become Ethereal" shout, you'd leave all your disease behind in a disgusting bio-mass clump thing, but I guess disease in skyrim goes down to your soul

Re: double Rockjoint:
There are actually near-identical duplicates of each "normal" disease (that is, everything but Sanguinare V.): one that is applied by creatures, and one that is applied by traps. The Redwater spring probably gave you the trap-applied variants, which meant the wolves were still able to infect you with creature-applied Rockjoint!
The effects are identical and stack; AFAIK the only substantive difference is the chance that they are applied, so that not every (e.g.) wolf bite inflicts Rockjoint, whereas the trap-applied diseases actually work reliably when they are called by script. (I am not certain about this last point - would have to check the game data again to be sure.)

DLC characters arrive and immediately form a queue, love it.

The line "preventing the horde from dining on my liz-innards" is amazing.

[BalrogTheImpious]

Ultimate solution to not getting sick, just have every sickness

[DD-zhhz]

I'm not gonna lie. That senator Armstrong bit actually made me jump a little.

[memer]

There is actually a hoe (like the gardening tool) in oblivion you can get, in the mehrunes razor plugin, that has a 100% chance to give your enemy a random disease, and personally i would love to see a video where you try to beat oblivion with only the hoe, great video by the way

[wadewade]

It would be cool if you suffer with disease for long enough you start to adapt to them and they begin to give you obtuse bonuses and you become some sort of plague spreader/worshiper like in Warhammer.

[arifhossain]

i was reading a community post by Joov mentioning how a region locked Oblivion run in Skingrad would basically be 50% avoiding Glarthir.
which got me thinking... if you choose the *correct* end to Glarthir's quest, he becomes hostile... so basically what im trying to ask is...

Can you beat Oblivion while running from Glarthir?

[hypermaeonyx]

Challendge idea! Can you beat Skyrim as a Cultist?

Rules are that you need to pick ONE god to worship, it can be any god so long as its a god, and then you can only do things, use weapons or armor, that are appropriate for worshippers of the god you choose.

So for example if you pick Stendarr then you have to use the items of a vigilant of stendarr and must hunt down daedra and other evil creatures or if you pick Mehrunes Dagon then you need to use Mythic Dawn robes and use fire spells and summon Dremora Lord and do chaotic things or if you pick Talos then you need to do the civil war questline for the Stormcloaks and kill all the thalmor soldiers. etc etc, this would be an interesting challendge

[Inplogo]

Never fully realized how trivial disease is in Skyrim, but it is still a neat mechanic.

[RetroTaylor]

I apparently beat the entire game with Rockjoint. Never realized I had picked it up from the Wolf on the path to Bleakfalls Barrow.

[appleplayzzz]

Making the mother of all challenges here Jack, can't fret over every disease!

[KaimArgonarEyyyy]

Skyrim's diseases are basically inconsequential. Instead you should try and beat Oblivion as a Vampire without feeding.
Also copying one of my other suggestions in case it was missed:
Can you play New Vegas as one of those Wild Wasteland Grandmas/Maud Muggers?
Only use weapons that can be found at a kitchen, and whatever the Muggers are using. (Lead pipes, knives, switch blades, cleaver, rolling pin, tire iron? and whatever you want in some technicalities)
Of course, trying your best to make a grandma character in the character creation is a must.
(optional) Only use food to heal, because Grandma says no to drugs, and considers Stimpax to be one of them. Who knows what the past government put in 'em.
