GetTheJojDone Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 doesn't matter. All you'll be doing is removing a boring cutscene later on anyway. And I think you lose the Delphine quest if you go as Imperial. I prefer Imperial cos I enjoy killing Stormcloaks. What cutscene? And what does Delphine have to with the war? Why would it affect her quests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidbossVyers Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) Oh, by the Empire supporters, who would you support during the American Revolution? The Colonial Rebels, the English Crown, or the Native Americans (Forsworn)? The colonists actually have slaves, while the Stormcloaks only have the Dark Elves (many of whom were former slavers, and some of whom are successful businessmen, regardless) living in slums. Yes, Cidhna Mine, but that is a work prison for criminals rather than non-criminal slaves (now, whether or not the criminals were put there justly is another story). And don't say that the colonists were fighting to "bring power to the people" because those people really just included white landowning men (AKA the instigators of the rebellion) at the time.

LoneWolfEburg Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Not that bad an analogy, although despite their elitism, the leaders of the American rebellion were still more democratoid than any large faction on Tamriel. (I wonder whether a TES game in the future will include some kind of French-revolution style movement Probably not, since it needs to be written well, and the Bethesda writers who did Skyrim were usually quite mediocre, but it's fun to ponder. One thing is sure - Boethiah, as the prince of unlawful rebellion, would be quite pleased). And of course, the British Empire also had legal and prominent slavery outside the Thirteen Colonies during this time. Then again, fandom detractors and supporters of the Stormcloaks both have pointed out that their supposed "Windhelm xenophobia" is, basically, all-tell-no-show.

The Silverbloods are also into unofficial slavery. Edited November 7, 2014 by kradus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lachdonin Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Oh, by the Empire supporters, who would you support during the American Revolution? The Colonial Rebels, the English Crown, or the Native Americans (Forsworn)? The Crown. Easy choice. The Colonial rebellion was nothing but a political coup by the American elite, and was an exercise in corruption and futility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kradus Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) Didn't I mention Cidhna Mine? It's bigger than that. Jarl Thongvor is planning to force all the reachmen into that situation. Personaly IDK enought about the American civil war to give an educated opinion(what the colonials had to put up with and so forth). But anyone who promotes war for their own advancement needs to be put down quickly in my book. Edited November 8, 2014 by kradus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidbossVyers Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Outside of the Forsworn and other criminals (again, criminal is kind of a broad term), where did he say that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kradus Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Outside of the Forsworn and other criminals (again, criminal is kind of a broad term), where did he say that? After he is in charge. He says he'll ask Ulfric for troops so he can slaughter the forsworn and put the reachmen in the mines.The forsworn aren't criminals, they're a people.
