Summary

Scoring the Platinum Trophy inThe Elder Scrolls: Skyrimis impressive on its own, but one gamer decided to secure the final trophy in a hilarious way. With 75achievements available to unlock inSkyrim, securing the entire list in the open-world game can take quite a bit of time. This gamer polished off the collection in a way mostSkyrimplayers can likely appreciate.

Skyrimhas been a hugely popular game since its original release, and regular ports and a lively modding scene have helped to maintain that over the years. While unlocking every trophy isn’t something that everySkyrimplayer has aspired to do, chances are the majority will understand why this particular player chose their target for their Platinum Trophy.

Reddit user andSkyrimplayer Klouhs shared a video unlocking the Platinum Trophy inSkyrim. Their character can be seen standing in the Whiterun Marketplace, where they draw their axe and approach Nazeem. After staring at him for a brief moment, Nazeem begins his iconic snide line aboutthe Cloud District. Without missing a beat, Klouhs attacks and lodges their axe in Nazeem’s torso, killing him instantly, though he continues to berate the player character despite having already been killed.

Of course, ifkilling Nazeemwere all it took to achieve a Platinum, a huge portion of the playerbase would have already unlocked it. Instead, what happened was Klouhs only needed to finish one more achievement before unlocking the Platinum Trophy, namely securing a bounty of at least 1000 gold in every hold in the game. Killing Nazeem in broad daylight was an easy way to boost their bounty quickly, and with it being the last hold they needed to complete the trophy, they effectively unlocked both Master Criminal and the Platinum Trophy at the same time.

Players responding to Klouhs’s achievements were impressed as well as greatly amused. To this day, Nazeem seems to get under the skin ofSkyrimplayers, and fans often get a kick out of seeing him face some retribution in one way or another. Players often go out of their way to kill off Nazeem once they meet him, with one commenter joking that the post reminded them to do it on their latest playthrough. In some rare instances, players have even discovered thatsomething or someone killed Nazeembefore they even had a chance to find him. That said, he’s also inspired some conversations about whether the character is really all that bad.
