Carimya Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Hi all!I´ve finally decided to become a soldier of war. But I can´t decide wether I join the storm cloaks or the imperial army... The imperial army was always there and won´t make things worse, but on the other side they are manipulated by the altmer and don´t let you worship Talos. But I also think, without the storm cloaks, they had better chances to get away from the altmer. Please post here what you think and who you joined or will/would join. Greetings Carimya!

Iv000 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Even before the game was released I wanted to join the Stormcloaks.And so I did in game, but it felt so wrong. Ulfric didn't care for anything I said, and he was only fighting for the Nords. The other races are left out.The first big quest you do for the Stormcloaks convinced me that they are bad. I had to capture Whiterun, and betray the Jarl that named me Thane of Whiterun. I probably won't join them anytime soon. The Imperial Legion:Elf loving cowards. You choose if you want to join Nord elitists, or a weak and crumbling faction that's a mere shadow of it's former self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carimya Posted November 20, 2011 Author Share Posted November 20, 2011 THX for replying. Well that´s why I asked. I had a strange feeling about Ulfric. Often he seemed like a hero, but even more often he sounded like a freak who doesn´t care for anybody. And using the Thu´um in a one on one fight is unfair I think. And: Before the game was released I was sure I´d join the Imperial Legion. Well I guess I was right. Now that you confirmed me, that Ulfric is a freak who only cares about his race I´ll think of joining the Legion again. Of course it´s bad that they stopped worshipping Talos because the Altmer say it, but they are not cowards. The emperor is the coward. I thought in the beginning... But I really thought about this and now I think: What would have happened if he didn´t surrender and got killed by the Altmer? An ALTMER would be emperor. And there was no chance for regaining the control again. So I guess the emperor isn´t a coward, he just knows that it would even be worse for Tamriel if the Altmer killed him.That´s just my view of all these things... And I don´t think my comrades will kill me when I go to a shrine of Talos. They won´t know it :P. Make all your foes bleed, my friend!

Carimya Posted November 20, 2011 Author Share Posted November 20, 2011 I´ve joined the Imperial Legion now... And now I must say you´re right! I had the same feeling like you in the first big quest. With the little difference that I was happy to have joined the Imperial Legion. The way Ulfric talked to me when I brought him the "message" of Balgruuf and his attack on Whiterun- my hometown- showed me his real face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elricshan Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I am a nord and a stormcloack to the core and i kill the imperial bastard with a smile on my face. the empire has no place in skyrim as they did try to steal my head. i was sad after the attac on my hometown but that was just because i did not get to be jarl.
