Maximum health, maximum magic, maximum rupees, speedhack...

He also wants to skip past the first half of the game, but he can't figure out how to do that.
I never even considered that anyone would do that. Most of the fun of Zelda games is using what you have at the moment to progress or get new things.

As someone who has never actually beaten OoT, I can say that I still wouldn't cheat at it, because that is retarded. o.O Cheating at games is only fun when you can become hideously overpowered and feel like a god for awhile. :P

And then you realize, "Wow, none of this is fun anymore."

Yeah, no kidding...

A big part of the reason I get bored quickly with Sandbox games too.
Especially Gmod.

I was thinking of DF Arena mode, where you make a Human Vampire with Grandmaster All, Adamantine armor, and an adamantine weapon, (No shield) versus like 20-30 basic soldier types with competent in a few skills and iron weapons. It's pretty fun to be breaking arms, stealing weapons, and lopping off limbs at will, in a sea of mooks.

Dwarf Fortress is special.
Nobody can not enjoy that anywhere.

You realize that, maybe. Some folks don't. If that's what does it for 'em, that's well and good. They're the ones that get to decide what's fun for 'em, y'know? The best of games are fun regardless as to if you're godmodding or not, anyway.

Me, I like to mix things up, sometimes in parallel. Cheat-blitzing can be fun, playing normally can be fun, buggering with things to change mechanics can be fun. Variety is the spice of gaming.

The best part is when you exploit stuff in ways that are funny and incredibly dangerous. Like making obscenely powerful fortify Speed on touch spells in Oblivion and then breaking the sound barrier on your horse (before promptly splattering all over something). At least IMO.

Honestly I sort of found myself missing the incredibly broken magic in morrowind that isn't present in skyrim/oblivion.

I know that there's at least one mod that adds Morrowind spells to Skyrim, but I'm not sure how far it goes. In any case, without a spellcrafting system (and without a broken alchemy system) all you can really exploit in Skyrim is the enchanting. No suicide leaps, nukes, or 100% chameleon makes for boring mage playthroughs, though some of the better spellpacks do help with that.

Yea, not sure what they were thinking when they decided to balance things out. Insane and funny spell effects are the heart and soul of Elder Scrolls!

And in Skyrim, magic is... underpowered. A travesty to be sure.

Enchantment and alchemy are still ridiculous, though.

What? Why? Why would you...why?!

I mean, if he were doing some sort of speedrun it might make sense, but it almost sounds like he's just bad at the game :/
There are two ways of looking at glitches.
1. "LOL! I'm using a cow as a pool cue!"
2. "So that's how it works? Fascinating!"

That video was a pleasant intellectual experience for me. Thank you for sharing it with us.
