One Skyrim player has made the ultimate sacrifice - and several less ultimate sacrifices - to let the world know what happens if you eat every single ounce of food available for purchase in the game's major cities. In short, you die. Explosively.
Reddit user amelix34 posted a video to the Skyrim subreddit earlier this week with this caption: "I have spent about 20,000 gold to buy all the food and ingredients from major cities to see what will happen if I use them all at once." The 60-second clip somehow offers just enough time to watch amelix34 go through the inventory menu to consume dozens upon dozens of various foodstuffs and alchemical ingredients, all chased with precisely three bottles of Skooma.
With a flash of light, amelix34's character then instantly, explosively dies, spurting blood out of unseen injuries about the torso. Yes, some combination of food here managed to eat its way through the body from the inside out, like an especially tasty chestburster.
Commenters on the video are pretty sure that the death was caused by one specific item: the Jarrin Root, which you typically pick up as part of the Dark Brotherhood questline. It deals 1000 damage when you eat it, and I don't think eating 26 potatoes in a row is going to make up that HP deficit. For proper science we probably could've used a few control tests in this clip, but you can't beat that sudden collapse for sheer comedic timing.
If you can't get enough cheese wheels, one RPG scientist has also been hoarding food in Skyrim, Starfield, and Oblivion to show just how far physics have come over the years.

Movies inspired by H.P. Lovecraft’s writing are often so oppressive that they can be exhausting. Lovecraft’s most central theme (apart from the virulent racism and all) was the idea that we live in a howling, empty void — a cosmos that’s indifferent to humanity at absolute best, and so inimical at worst that even a glimpse at the true horrors of the universe would drive most people insane.
The Mortal Kombat community has yet another reason to dislike the monetisation of NetherRealm’s Mortal Kombat 1 after publisher Warner Bros. Games confirmed plans to sell a seasonal Fatality.
The Elder Scrolls 6, as nebulous as it might feel, is eventually coming, and Bethesda’s former design director has shared some tidbits on what could be carried over from previous games, including Skyrim’s progression and magic systems.
One programmer has given an AI model 50,000 hours worth of training in how to play Pokemon Red, leading to an algorithm that's capable of exploring the game and building a team to defeat the first gym leader - but not one that can find its way through Mt. Moon or know better than to keep buying Magikarp. Most of all, this exercise is a fascinating way to get an idea of how machine learning actually works.
You'd think a collection that only has six things to collect would be a pretty easy collection to complete. Usually it would be, but not Pokemon Squishmallows. Squishmallows are the hot toy of the moment right now. Combine that with Pokemon which continues to be hot more than 25 years after it burst onto the scene and you've got yourself a rather potent combination. If you want a Pokemon Squishmallow in time for the holidays, then you really need to buy it the moment it gets restocked.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has arrived on PS5 and marks the biggest gaming adventure yet for our favorite friendly neighborhood hero who first swung into the gaming world in 1982’s Spider-Man for the Atari 2600. Since then, there have been some spectacular and amazing entries in the wallcrawler’s game output, as well as some that didn’t quite live up to Spidey’s good name.
Nintendo and the city of Seattle, Washington, have a surprisingly interesting history together. The most notable example of this is when former president Hiroshi Yamauchi purchased a majority stake in the Seattle Mariners when the team struggled in the 1990s. It was an odd moment in sports and gaming history that remains a fun fact.
Cities: Skylines 2 launches next week, following up a beloved predecessor that got a veritable pile of DLC that dramatically expanded the game's scope over the years. The sequel can't match that at launch, so the devs at Colossal Order set some particular priorities for what to include this time around.
