  &quot;Spiff lives like a (relatively) normal person in videogames&quot; is a series I didn,t know I wanted, but I want more of it now.

  This is hands down the closest anyone has come to recreating the authentic mortal experience of living in Skyrim.

  I love how even in a challenge where Spiff isn&apos;t allowed &nbsp;to use bugs, they always find a way to get to him themselves.

  Spiff: &quot;We do resist like 30% of all spells, so that frost mage isn&apos;t the biggest danger in the universe&quot;<br>That Frost Mage: &quot;You wot mate?&quot;

  I love the idea of the dragonborn just sorta deciding to just pretend that helgen didn&apos;t happen and went on to live a simple life as a farmer with a wife and kids.

  Technically having a wood axe or pickaxe in your inventory without being equipped isn&apos;t using them as a weapon, and if you activate a wood pile or an ore vein, it will automatically use them as tools but you won&apos;t equip them as weapons or be using them as weapons ^_^

  When you think about it, this is effectively what is like to be a regular townsfolk npc in this game. Really puts into perspective how heroic the dragonborn really is when you see what it would effectively be like to be a weak townsfolk npc. You&apos;re just a guy, you dont have or wear fancy armor. Maybe you have some magic abilities but it&apos;s not much. You eat sleep and get injured and can die. Then one day, someone shows up blasted out in legendary armor, a badass weapon and a badass sidekick, and they can literally just yell things into or out of existence with the power of the dragon&apos;s voice. At best you&apos;ve got a little dagger and maybe some magic if you&apos;re lucky. If you ran out into the wilds you&apos;d never survive alone against a bunch of bandits. And lets not forget, there is a civil war going on as well. You&apos;re a lowly peasant just trying to make some coin and survive 100 days. I love it.

  Spiff sleeping from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPmUnbh52rg&amp;t=105">1:45</a> to 6 am was truly the most realistic part of survival mode

  You basically beat the challenge as soon as you got married and made it back to Whiterun. At that point you can spend the other 100 days having Ysolda cook for you once a day and giving you money and a free bed. For round 2, I think you need to incorporate another goal, like amassing 1 million gold or defeating the Ebony Warrior or completing a major questline or something. Could be interesting to see you do this challenge with the added goal of building and fully furnishing a hearthfire house. The travel to and from would be a challenge by itself, and you&apos;d have to balance keeping yourself alive with buying materials for the build. It would also make improving your stamina something you would need to do so you could carry more materials each trip.
