Re: Please halp? (Skyrim spoilers (for Civil War questline))

if i ever pick a side, it's almost always the stormcloaks. you can maintain neutrality in the war, in case you weren't aware and would prefer that route; you instead act as a mediator later on. i always play a mer character of some sort so from a realistic standpoint it seems like a weird choice. but i don't like the thalmor and i don't like the restrictions they place on religion. those issues are more important to me than the stormcloaks being hella racist.

plus the legion tried to cut my head off, so there's that.

You can stay neutral? I mean, I know there's the main questline where you organize a truce, but can the Civil War actually end without the PC taking a side?

I started off going with the Stormcloaks, because religious freedom and the Legion tried to cut my head off and I'm playing an Altmer so I'm assuming that I was trying to escape the Dominion in the first place (hence crossing the border).

On the other hand, the Empire's grasp is slipping, so what happens if it falls? The Aldmeri Dominion is pretty much poised to take over.... And Windhelm, plus probably some other places to a lesser extent, is sort of an awful place to live if you're not a Nord, and I feel like the Empire would help with that a lot. Ulfric doesn't seem to care.

Damn Thalmor. If they didn't exist I'd just side with the Imperials, but if they didn't exist the War probably wouldn't be happening either. I wish I could just finish the Dark Brotherhood storyline and then go off and assassinate all the high-ranking Aldmeri officials and burn the damn Concordat.

The devil and the deep blue sea....

yeah, you just have to not join the stormcloaks or the legion lmao. you still have to mediate later on but it's about as neutral as you can get in the war.

i always end up joining the dark brotherhood even when i'm trying to be a "good" character so that makes the choice between both sides a little easier for me, for spoilery reasons.

i think the legion has a noble cause but yeah the thalmor really muck it up.

Yeah, I'm trying to do everything the first time through, plus I like progression in the world. It makes it seems more "alive" than just having an eternal Civil War.

(I just realized that in Skyrim, the Civil War could also be classed as "The War of Northern Agression," only, well. XD)

I'm in the middle of the Dark Brotherhood questline (well, I just started it, but same thing), so maybe that'll influence me when I finish it. (But thanks for not spoiling me!)

I feel like "Damn Thalmor" is going to become a fairly constant refrain for me here....
