Skyrim player kills every living thing in game just to see what happens

Skyrim player kills every living thing in game just to see what happens

Just for laughs

At GAMINGbible, we talk about The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim a lot. It’s a fan favourite in the RPG genre, and a game we personally love.

Most of the time, we talk about mods, as well as tips and tricks we see on message boards, but out of everything I’ve personally written about Skyrim, this has to be my favourite.

Skyrim is held as one of the best RPGs ever made

The story comes from Reddit, and one particular player who, I can only assume, played the game so much that they’d run out of things to do and woke up one day choosing violence.

A user called amelix34 reported to others that they decided to see what happens when you kill every living thing in the game.

It’s not what Bethesda intended, but I back this experiment.

Little else was posted by the player, except from their stats, which are eye-opening, and a little shocking.

During their adventure, they killed 3310 people, 693 animals, and 401 creatures, which is already impressive.

However, the stats get a bit more granular, revealing they also killed 947 undead, 55 Daedra, and 98 automatons.

Their favourite weapon during the experiment was Dawnbreaker, and their bounty got up to a whopping 267,140.

Another Redditor comments, “3300 human kills and not a single backstab is impressive, you must be a straight-up menace.”

I think they’re a menace for simply setting out to kill everything in the first place, honestly.

One reply jokes, “So you're saying there is an empty province ripe with resources?”

I can only imagine how quiet the world would have been after this monumental crime spree fuelled by rampant violence.

As one commenter exclaims, “Congratulations! You are the true world-eater!!”

I hope this player was happy after their blood thirst was sated, but I also hope they went on to do the same thing in other Elder Scrolls titles.
