Skyrim is a pretty old game right now, if you don't count the one billion times Bethesda has re-released it. That means those that create content surrounding the title have to be pretty creative in order to stand out and keep things fresh, which is exactly what Twitch streamer Blurbs has managed to do with their unique Skyrim mod, which is letting Twitch chat members voice every NPC in the game.
Blurbs recently showcased some of the highlights of their playthrough on Twitter, explaining that the mod even manages to create custom facial animations and subtitles depending on what's being said by the NPCs' respective Twitch chat member. This is how you manage to get Sigrid of Riverwood to explain how the Undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcer's table.
Most of Blurbs' interactions with other NPCs are just as cursed, with one Whiterun guard becoming a Raid: Shadow Legends sponsor, a child voiced by "YuriOnTwitch" asking Blurbs if he wants some drugs, and far too many people commenting on the size of his character's member. In fact, the only interaction with a character that isn't cursed ends up with Blurbs kicking a small child in the face, so that's the level of strangeness you should expect.
One other very interesting interaction that can also take place is when characters die. We know that Skyrim can be a hostile place at times, and if an NPC that is attached to a certain Twitch chat member ends up kicking the bucket, that Twitch user is temporarily banned from the stream. As Blurbs puts it, "if you die in the game, you die for real".
All of this combined has made for what is essentially a Skyrim playthrough in which pretty much anything can happen, and Blurbs is a braver man than I for giving Twitch fans free rein to voice characters. It's made things pretty interesting at the very least, and Blurbs has already explained that more streams will be going live in the future, and that a video is coming explaining how he pulled it all off. Until then, expect to hear plenty more cursed memes from the likes of Ulfric Stormcloak.
