the problem i usually have is the instructions always seem to specify a higher wattage than the one we actually have, so i end up having to guess anyway
also as i remember it my actual experience playing the game was: initially i was sympathetic to the stormcloaks because the imperial border patrol were going to execute me, but then i talked to some stormcloaks and they were all what do you want you…
well fwiw, i came into this thread not having played the game in a long time and feeling like with retrospect i gave the stormcloaks too much slack and that i should have just joined the legion from the beginning, but Tatterhood has reminded me why …
sure, and there's definitely an analogy there, but there's not really an equivalent to slavery in this scenario
instead you have on the one hand the stormcloaks who will drive out the elves and the imperials, and on the other hand the thalmor who ar…
also part of my issue with the civil war stuff wasn't just the pessimism, but how short it felt, which i felt to be an issue with most of the questlines
the mage's college was over way too quickly for my liking, in particular, it was like, go into a…
so another instance of the powerlessness in the face of whatever thing
on the whole i guess it was just a very pessimistic game, and while i don't mind that a little bit (it did feel like it had more depth than oblivion), it was a bit much for my ta…
iirc as a kid i was much less favourably disposed to Syaoran and Meiling, but on rewatch i liked them very quickly
also: Suppi is so, so good
TBF, the dub did try their best to make him into just The Rival, so I can get disliking him just from watc…
i always kinda assumed that if the imperials were actually able to drive the thalmor out, they would - hadn't there been a protracted war beforehand?
but i had forgotten that about Heimskr, that's terrible
yeah, both sides suck
usually when i watch a show there will be characters i like a lot, others i like not so much, and one or two that i could do without
but the major characters in cardcaptor sakura are all so great for their own different reasons that i really can't p…
you don't play Skyrim by following the story, you play it by maxing out all of the stealth stuff and stealing helmets off of soldiers
actually it was most satisfying to just steal their sweet rolls
that's a *very* inaccurate and simplistic summary of the leave vote in the UK, and not borne out by statistics, and if you're at all interested in UK politics i would encourage you to read up on the subject some more, but you're right, this is not t…
i mean if the stormcloaks hadn't had some semblance of valid grievances, and Ulfric had been a bigger dick than he was, then they'd have been much more straightforwardly villainous and the war would have been less interesting
Thing is tho
IRL rac…
i mean there's a point where it's possible for Wrex to become hostile, but you can avoid that by talking him out of it
Skyrim doesn't give you that option there
i mean if the stormcloaks hadn't had some semblance of valid grievances, and Ulfric had been a bigger dick than he was, then they'd have been much more straightforwardly villainous and the war would have been less interesting
i don't agree that lett…
my brother pointed out that skyrim itself had not been colonized: the empire was originally skyrim-based, not cyrodillic, which frankly makes the stormcloaks just come off as ukippers
for all the issues with skyrim's civil war questline i feel like, for me at least, i reacted to it in a way that lined up pretty well with my political views at the time
that is:stormcloaks looked hateful and misguided, but had been wronged
imperial…
tumblr's 'manage options' thing that comes up when you try to access now is the most tiresome longwinded thing, and this is absolutely how they planned it
