The Stormcloaks seemed like the right choice to me. The reasoning being: 1. The Imperials were trying to kill me for no reason in the beginning. 2. All of the Imperials I see just seem like bad people who want to force terrible laws down people's throat. 3. Being a religious person, I see the religious guy in Whiterun shouting out against the Imperials saying that they do nothing to stop the ban on Talos worship, and that leads me to believe that the Imperials are just generally bad people. 4. It kinda reminds me of how America fought against Great Britain for freedom. Yes, I understand the Stormcloaks have some bad things about them too, but the Imperials just seem straight up terrible to me.
