As an example, a Skyrim video shows a player freeing a werewolf from its cell only to hilariously die in just two hits. They went the extra mile and had to complete a lock-picking mini-game to save the werewolf, who reciprocated by attacking them. Another Skyrim player recently had an equally memorable encounter with a giant and a dragon.

A user named strippyjewell claims to be a newcomer to The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim. Strippyjewell couldn’t kill a giant in the game, so they decided to lure it and a dragon to each other. The giant and the dragon fought, and strippyjewell took advantage of this scenario, resulting in the dragon’s defeat. The giant marched towards the user, but he didn’t have much health left, so the player switched to a Steel Warhammer and killed the giant with a few swings. The fight ended with a stylish killcam showing the player finishing off the giant while absorbing the dead dragon’s soul.

Strippyjewell mentions that Skyrim was the perfect game they were looking for and recently bought it on PC. They claim to have peaked in this clip, but other users mention that there is much more to look forward to in the game. The video exemplifies thrilling encounters players can have while exploring the open world of Skyrim. A user named PickPucket mentions that they once tried a similar tactic by luring two Sabre Cats but were unsuccessful in their attempt.

Many Skyrim fans congratulate strippyjewell on their victory, and the-exiled-muse commends their use of the game’s environment. One user is surprised that the player survived a hit by the giant at this level, who later clarifies that they are playing on the Adept difficulty setting. Many fans also comment with helpful advice, such as using the Flames spell in Skyrim, given that strippyjewell is a newcomer to the game.

Giants are notorious for being hard to kill early on, so it’s not surprising to see strippyjewell struggle with them. Giants are also known for sending other players and NPCs flying, but one Skyrim player managed to reverse this and sent the giant flying using a modded club. Fans can find several other funny videos involving giants online, including clips of them riding dragons.

The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
