Siding with the Imperials is the more logical choice, any day.

enjoy having reality literally ripped apart from under your nose because you allowed Thalmor agents to walk right up to the Adamantine Tower and sunder it.

A united Empire with prevent that

A united Empire can't and won't do shit.

Xenophobic, nationalist Redguards and Nords can do a pretty good job of keeping Faggondil and his elf pals the fuck out of High Rock.

High Rock was also mostly inhabitable desert. Skyrim, while freezing, is a lot different.

Tbf, Titus is a fucking tactical genius. The Dominion threw one of their biggest armies at Cyrodiil and Titus pretty much buttfucked them with inferior numbers but superior strategy. Let's also not forget the Battle of the Red Ring and the retaking of The Imperial City.

Not saying that makes them any more a viable option, but it would be an interesting war if Titus had the same amount of resources as The Dominion.

He also fought really for no reason. The treaty in the beginning was exactly the same, if not slightly worse than the end.

Plus you kill him, so... oh no.

I used to side with the Nords, but let's be real. If the Empire loses, the nazi elves (kawaii~) win.



> is an elder scrolls/fallout lore nerd

sorry fam but the Nazi elves win no matter what if you don't keep them the fuck out of Northwestern Tamriel and preserve Talos worship at all costs.

Every tower except for Ada-Mantia has been sundered. Talos and Ada-Mantia are the only things between the Thalmor and their ultimate goals.

Military prowess means nothing in the face of metaphysical manipulation.

also
>implying Fallout has lore
I want Bethesda to leave.

The Empire is gathering strength though. Kicking them out will just leave that province vulnerable to the Thalmor taking it over.

Hammerfell alone is blowing the Thalmor the fuck out. The Empire is nothing without Skyrim and Hammerfell. Skyrim and Hammerfell are stronger when they are independent and free to worship Talos than they are bound to Cyrodiil.

I know there was a time when Nords came back and started their ultimate conquest FROM Skyrim, but those days are long gone and it's far different.

Indeed, the days of Man's empire are done. It's time to move on. Even Talos himself has acknowledged this.

Also, Fallout has all the lore, you hush your mouth young man. I love Fallout lore.

All there is to really learn about the world of Fallout is in-game. Bethesda's commonwealth shit isn't canon. It's not like TES or LOTR where you can read shitloads of text.

Who knows, if Nords retook Skyrim, they could probably form an alliance with the Red Guards of Hammerfell. That'd be interesting actually. And Talos acknowledged men has passed? When did he do this?

And why is Commonwealth not canon? Obsidian/original makers didn't EVER cover the east coast, so I dislike when people say things like Fallout 3 isn't canon. It's 2500 miles away in a land where culture basically reset to 0.

In Europe in the old days, things were way different less than 300 miles away. That and (ramble) people hate on Bethesda for painting the Enclave in just "EVIL" light, but they also forget that these are the SAME GUYS who wanted to nuke the ENTIRE EARTH with gas that kills anyone slightly irradiated. So basically 99% of the population.

Sounds pretty freaking evil to me.

I'd rather the Empire maintain and actually still be a united fighting force against them, than Ulfric leading his racist people to screw over everyone who's lived there forever and get hated on simply for not being a nord.

"The Emperor is getting old. Don't know how much longer he'll hang on. So is the whole Empire, for that matter. Getting old, that is. The Emperor and the legions have held the Empire together for hundreds of years. It's been a good thing, by and large. But maybe it's time for a change. Time for something young and new. What? No idea. Because I'm old. Old dog doesn't get new ideas. But maybe young folks like you should try some new ideas. I don't know. Could be messy. But change is never pretty."[/i]

Well how about that. I never knew that, that's really cool.

tbh I'm more mad that they fucked up the BoS than that they depicted the Enclave as super evil.

Well to be fair, they basically painted a "good" version of the BoS in Fallout Tactics as well. They broke tradition by asking the villages to give them their best warriors in return for their protection over said land. They weren't as benevolent as the Fallout 3 ones, but they were more "good". Besides, it seems the Brotherhood is painted in a more neutral/bad light in Fallout 4, considering you kill them in the trailer and you see a giant ship of theirs come crashing down.
