Can You Beat Oblivion With Poison Only?
Ойындар
Ahhh, Oblivion, the game that heard it could be anything it wanted to be, so decided to be a potato. But of course, the real question as always is: can you beat Oblivion with poison only?
(yes of course, this is just for entertainment purposes)

After explaining in more detail, I got my refund, and I bought another game instead, Wild Arms 3. Lasted way longer than 10 minutes.
When I was a kid, I would refer to the poisons in this game as "Orc Potions" as hitting an enemy with one turns them green. We would always joke about turning all of Cyrodiil into Orcs. This video brought back good memories. Thank you!

Every time I see an Oblivion video I always want to load it up and remember the good ol days, but every time I do, I just listen to the banger main theme, make a character, leave tutorial jail, and shut it off. great video! :)

Technically by using yourself as a lure to lead the bandits to an ambush by the guards, you are risking your own life to help them get rid of bandits that would normally be a relatively dangerous force.
That acapella oblivion theme went harder than necessary
11:11 The Gothic soundtrack hit me like a truck. Safe to say I wasn't ready to go on a nostalgia trip but here we are.
1:39 "I would need more poisons and potions to achieve the same result on higher difficulty" You actually wouldn't! The way difficulty works in Oblivion is to apply a percentage modifier to the amount of damage you deal to enemies and enemies deal to you, and because of the way poisons are coded to apply their effects, the difficulty modifier isn't applied to them. This makes poisons one of the VERY few options to deal decent amounts of damage on max difficulty settings.
I can't help but think the better npc faces look uncanny I always expect the original potato texture
Poison only in Morrowind would effectively be magic only since I don't think there is zero physical damage melee or ranged ammo. Also, both Daedra and Sixth House member can sport some reflect magic innately even if you weaken their resistance to poison damage. You'll probably want to take a character with poison resistance (Argonian or Redguard iirc) along with Alchemy as a major skill to make restore magicka potions.

Something tells me lord dagon will welcome his soul in oblivion ... idk why
I always love the music you do for the parts, it was fantastic in the skyrim poison one and again is wonderful here! never stop doing that, it's such a unique charm
"Good ol' invisibility, nothing beats that" Well, except 100% chameleon which is objectively just an upgrade (the effect is the same as 100% invisibility but doesn't wear off from doing things)
Baron you can't do me like this, I already got my night with the bois planned you can't just drop Oblivion challenge like that
I need more oblivion challenges, I love this game
It is always nice to see Oblivion challenge runs as I have such fond memories of this game growing up!
I liked it when baron was about to poison that dude and then said "it's poisionin time" when he poisoned him
This game was how I first got into ES, however while I’ve not played in years, it’s a Baron video so watching and liking is a must. Apart from that, I hope you’re doing well mate and yes I will always make time for the “British music meme man” apart from doing a marathon of your vids.
Every bit worth the wait, thank you Mr.Castle
The day horse armor destroyed the whole gaming market.
16:31 not sure if you knew but lord dagon will welcome your soul in oblivion
How you play Oblivion is none of my business but, I really cant get over the modded npc faces. They’re absolutely terrifying Jesus Christ how the hell are you okay with it 😨
The paradise song. I had time to hear para a few times. Had time to realize it was labeled paradise. Heard para long enough to wonder when you were gonna say dice. There was 3 more.... then one more. Then it was over. That was such a Rollercoaster of emotion for me lol
"Why do I come to the Arena? Honestly? I love the way the combatants move. It's like an... an erotic dance. The bodies, the sweat, the... oh. I, um..."
i love that restore fatigue potions are literally just the elder scrolls version of a bottle of V8, like tomatos and grapes? My grandpa drinks that shit with breakfast.
Love your vids, Baron. Wish you uploaded more often, but the quality is well worth waiting for
Not a game I've played or ever will play. Still had loads of fun. Nice job.
What a nice coincidence. I just finished Elden Ring yesterday and I was looking forward to finally watching your challenges for that game and you even upload a new video aswell. What a treat, lucky me
That disgaea music at the end. Such a comfy video, delightful.

"Let's go back to 2006" Yes, please, let's do that. Let's do it right now and never talk about the last 17 years ever again.

Knew it. Viggo Mortensen and Sean Bean are one and same.
Lmao, been loving this channel ever since I was taking a test, and listening to.. one of your dark souls 2 videos I believe.. in a TOTALLY NORMAL way, no glitches, or exploits whatsoever.
its a good day when there is a new baron's castle video. love you man keep it up 👍
I, for one, did in fact notice the Mount and Blade Warband music at around the 30 minute mark ;) hell yeah
Getting Martin through the city at the end is part of why I don't really miss non essential essential NPCs. That and general escort mission trauma lol
Oh man that name pun came all the way back around... Chekov's Gun, I fuckin love it, keep up the great work!
KZread commenter: You absolutely must play oblivion on the highest difficultly or I'll use mean gamer words.
"Well that doesn't bother me, because I'm not right anyway." But if I'm not right in the head and you're not right in the head and 9 out of 10 people are always saying they're not right in the head, doesn't that make us right in the head? That's the line the Normals always use, right? "There's more of us." Well... Are there? 🤔
Understood like 0% of the words said in this video as I have never touched any oblivion content, still loved the video and it made me think about buying the game. Great content as always man!
Love the oyrite town theme going on haha
Good job going through Oblivion totally not poisoning anyone, mate
you start as a prisoner in super mario sunshine too
Ahh yes Sean Bean played Aragon. But fr good play through!
I really appreciate the use of Pokemon Colosseum background music. Also the OG super meat boy music. That soundtrack is so underrated.
An excuse to play oblivion and make jokes about it? I am here. for. it!
my bro the transition music is amazing. subbed.
LMAO! my first video of yours, and you had my sub at "British weather simulator" 😂😂😂
I thought you'd for sure name the character "Alice Cooper" but NotAPoisoner is good as well. Way more subtle.
Tom only wanted to be your friend, not spy on you for the government.
That's no poisoner... It's the hero of Kvatch!
Loved the video so much lol! I didn't played oblivion! Gotta try it ASAP! 🎉 Also it is refreshing to not actually see yet another AC6 video (nothing wrong but everyone is making em!)

"I brought a small list of mods". The folder was twice the game size.
Im surprised you didnt think to put poison weakness on your dagger. Id assume it would allow you
It is absolutely hysterical that Oblivion thinks you didn't kill a single thing throughout an entire playthrough of the main quest. You really are NotAPoisoner. And here I thought that name was a play on the fact you were a Prisoner.
You went and cringyed at 16:56
Came from oblivion and jumped of joy when burning throb started. Good choice on music
I see what you did there. Love the thumbnail.

loving the background music, sonic unleashed, pokemon on the gamecube, great picks
Immediately subscribed after i saw you an oblivion video.
I wasn't expecting that twist in the end, so you haven beaten Oblivion as "not a poisoner" and a pacifist
It's a good day when Baron uploads
Robin Hood stealing from the rich and giving to the poor is a long standing dishonest misinterpretation. Robin Hood stole from the government--the tax collectors. The from rich to poor label contributes to dividing people by class and to misdirect frustrations of the less fortunate away from the government and towards the "haves". Anyway first time seeing your videos. I really appreciate the infographics and data lists and how you are able to provide us with details of a guide on top of the entertaining narrative of the challenge.

taxes were only levied on two groups at the time, nobles and the clergy. Both of which groups had extraordinary wealth and power.
Nice to see you play a small indie game for a change.
Another banger, also just now noticed I've never actually played the story in this game, only finished it cuz of the weird paintbrush exploit
Nobodys talking about the Chorrol/Carl joke and thats disappointing. Made me laugh out loud 10/10
Great watch, and its good to hear that sweet sweet Dragon Quest music. Rated Todd/10
Baron, question: What takes longer, the script or composing the music?
AFAIK you can stack poisons even with same names (not sure about that last part), but just to be safe you can have damage health 1 2 and 3 to stack them on enemies :)

As for more in-depth oblivion tips, when spamming spells to train (or fight) its fastest to have a weapon in hand and constantly press block, this makes cast animation shorter allowing you to spam more.
I won't lie, their modded eyes is a stuff of nightmares.
2:12 that was legendary
Next Oblivion challenge: figuring out how to level properly. Seriously, the leveling in this game was so jank. The opposite of that would be a Baron's video drop - jank not detected. Everything is perfectly normal. PS - Just needed to say that your Puddle of Mudd/Orphan of Kos video is literally one of the best things on the internet. Bravo. Edit: Dang, didn't even take you five minutes to get to the leveling. I should've trusted you. 😅

It's confusing because the same skills you want to level to be stronger make you weaker as your enemies grow stronger then you. An easy way to keeping your level low in Oblivion is to pick major skills that you can control easily while leaving minor skills with things you'll use often. A weapon+armor skill often is what overlevels people when you combine it with Acrobatics, Restoration, Athletics, Destruction, Stealth, or Illusion. You'll use it often and level up often with incomplete stacks of +5 stats which leads to issues. It's not balanced. That's just how Oblivion is. Once you know how to stack it in your favour it becomes easier.
16:12 I'm beginning to think that Lord Dagon is going to welcome your soul and oblivion
