stebbinsd Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I've made a few observations in my time playing as Skyrim. I have noticed that, if you look even the slightest bit beneath the surface, the Nords of Windhelm don't appear to be nearly as racist as they appear at first glance. Instead, it's actually the Dark Elves who are the true racists!I made a video documenting my findings. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraggy Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 'Racist' isn't the correct term here. As Morrowind first showed us they hate ALL 'outsiders' (ie. non-Dark Elves) not just selected races, so the true term for them is 'xenophobic'.

thumbincubation Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 When you have to go in search of offense, you will find something offensive. Why not just enjoy the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have to go in search of offense, you will find something offensive. Why not just enjoy the game? We are just enjoying the game. The game clearly wants us to take note of the racism in Windhelm. Not taking notice of it would probably be the exact opposite of enjoying the game.
