FACT: Nords are the most powerful race on Nirn.

But do they make good stealth archers?

>>714606138
Ysgramor was the greatest of stealth archers. It is said that whenever he loosed an arrow, the crack of his enormous bow deafened all who heard it rendering them unable to detect the following volleys of arrows.

Why did you steal your Khajiit wife bit?

>>714606526

You should have known that my Khajiit wife stole it from me

>>714605705 (OP)
Being beloved by both fans and developers insures they always will be.

Well it was a good run Nordbros.

>>714607528
>and is a known self hating White guy.
not nearly as bad as kuckbride but at least kuckbride had some skills to shore up the white savior stupidity

>>714607458
Todd did not like the idea of torturing one of the higher races. He reasoned torturing khajit was a victimless crime.

>have civil war over right to worship a god from the cyrodilic pantheon
FACT: Nords are just blond Imperials

>>714607528
Todd is one of us. He will make sure that TESVI is about High Rock mogging Hammerfell.

>>714607713
Why are they so enamored with self hating White guys? They had good writers and didn't need to pad the staff with guys as focused on race as the KKK.
How many times have they used Hammerfell as a setting. Negro worship is a thing at Bethesda.

>>714607801
> Storm-Dragon-Elder-Son-Head
>[The fifth Ysmriti is a song of Talos, told in the neo-Nordic style popular in the Bards College of Haafingar (and generally unpopular beyond). Nonetheless, it is the first and thus seminal song of Tiber Septim's conquests, which has earned its disjointed and shouty lines a place in the Ysmrithic tradition. Talos is the dragon-headed scion of Atmora, followed on his solitary journey from the Nords' ancient home by a mighty stormcloud that seemingly - the song is decidedly abstract - serves to tether him to the fury of the gods. Upon taking the Ruby Throne, the knowing of Ysmir slips through the slit in his voiceless throat and all Nords know that he is truly the exalted of Shor. Talos achieved the unthinkable in shattering the twin elven bastions of Morrowind and the Aldmeri Dominion, forever subjugating the races of elves to a son of the Sky.]

The Cyrodillic Pantheon is 2/3 Nordic in the first place

>>714607805
Todd has checked out after Starfield.

>>714607995
>How many times have they used Hammerfell as a setting
once, arguably zero because redguard was, well, redguard
arena doesnt count

>>714608089
The Nords are doing the same thing Catholics did. They absorbed local religious customs and festivals into Catholicism to make new converts more comfortable.
It is easier to get a Redguard or a Khajit to follow the Nord pantheon if they are familiar with parts of it.

>>714608352
Daggerfall is partially set in Hammerfell

Skyrim was a mistake.

>>714608352
Arena,Daggerfall, Redguard, ESO and possibly the mobile game Castles.
That is 4 or 5 times out of how many games?

We have been there done that time to move on to something new. If it weren't for the negro obsession at Bethesda that is.

>>714605705 (OP)
I wish Skyrim went more into the spiritual shit. The Nordic pantheon is pretty cool. It’s odd how everyone is getting autistic over Talos yet can’t be bothered to mention Kyne and Shor outside of generic barks.

>>714609225
They changed the nomenclature so the lesser races would be more comfortable.

>>714608694
>Cyrodiil: Arena, Oblivion, ESO, Castles, Blades
>Skyrim: Arena, Bloodmoon, Skyrim, ESO, TES Travels: Dawnstar
god i hate bethesda's whitey obsession

>>714608694
Most people did not play Arena, Daggerfall or Redguard, let's be real. Every major province is in ESO (lol, ESO) and nobody gives a shit about some random outsourced mobile game. For the majority of players, this will be the first time they've ever set foot in Hammerfell.

>>714608414
That’s the Imperial Pantheon too. It’s a syncretic appeasement of the Nords by the Alessians to make their religion less elven. Kynareth, Julianos, and Dibella are purely Nordic imports to the pantheon while Mara, Stendarr, and Arkay are sort of universal gods found in most pantheons or have more or less an equivalent in them. Akatosh and Zenithar are the purely Ayleid (most similar to the Bosmer pantheon) parts of their religion. Talos is basically the state god of Cyrodiil, but the Nords claim him as a Ysmir and was pronounced Dragonborn atop the Throat of the World. It’s not like the Imperials forced him on Skyrim. The Nords like him as well.

>>714609381
Castles is either High Rock or Hammerfell depending on which skin you use for your castle.

I couldn't help but notice you had to stoop to throwing in a DLC to bolster your pathetic argument.

Get fucked kiddo. Better luck next time.

>>714609492
> It hasn't been used in anything I consider important.
I am sure that matters to you.

>>714609656
A DLC in a mainline release is better than Redguard the spinoff game on par with fucking Battlespire.

>>714609656
NTA, but why would you not count Bloodmoon? It takes place in Skyrim (at the time).

>>714609558
> Nords like the Nord who became divine.
Whoda thunk it.

>>714609656
>you had to stoop to throwing in a DLC
>>714609787
>> It hasn't been used in anything I consider important.
hmm...

>>714609965
Give him a break he's autistic, old AND narcissistic

>>714609849
>>714609872
> Why don't I consider a DLC a game?
Hmm.

>>714610119
I am sure that matters to you.

>>714605705 (OP)
>Seen any elves? Ahahahahahaha.

>>714609787
Yes. Nobody is bitching about Hammerfell like you are, because most players have never played a TES game where they could go to Hammerfell.

>>714609656

>>714610258
What did he mean by this?

>>714609965
I see what confused you. I was using words by their correct definition again. I forgot about your public education disability.

What luck other anons just happened by once you started getting abused.

>>714610258
The male voice line of this is boisterous and playful. The female version is sinister.

>>714610187
Knowing the difference between a DLC and a game?
It really isn't all that impressive a feat. For most of us anyway.

>>714610332
>what my mer gf sees when she looks up

>>714610307
The irrelevance of the previous titles does not remove the fact they happened.
Bethesda is gunshy after Starfield and wants to go back to well trod safe ground. Add in Emil at half staff thinking about Hammerfell and you have disaster written all over this.

>>714610119
A DLC exists within a game
Morrowind is an Elder Scrolls with Skyrim it it

>>714607528
>Thinking TESVI is anything other than vaporware

>>714610897
The irrelevancy of said titles almost does invalidate the fact they happened. Someone has only played TES 3, 4 and 5 has never been to Hammerfell. It doesn't matter if the setting appeared in previous games, because they have no interest in previous games.

>>714605705 (OP)
Atmorans, Yokudans, Altmer, Dwemer and Chimer(not dungmer) are the only races worth a damn

>>714610328
he knew what he said

>>714611131
So you do realize a DLC is not a game.
Good for you.

That isn't how things work.

>>714611495
Odd anon just happened to have that picture.
I think he told on himself.

>>714611681
So you do realize that Skyrim had already been portrayed as often as hammerfell by the time it got a game
good for you :)

>>714611223
At this point that may be the best outcome.

>>714611982
If that is the point I made you would have won.
That isn't the point I made. I know your public education is a factor but go back to the beginning and try again.

>>714611828
That's exactly how things work. We could have 50 games set in Hammerfell, but if only 100 people combined played all of them, then those 50 games are irrelevant.

>>714612237
They still exist. I have never been to China or the moon. They both still exist.

Tell the truth you are purposely trying to out tard yourself at this point.

For me, it's Dunmer. Yes I'm racist, yes I'm grumpy.

>>714612502
My first char ever made was a dunmer. Because the art in oblivion was so cool

i thought rolstonfag was a meme cooked up by morrowboomers who couldn't handle criticism but clearly the guy is just as much of an insufferable prick even in conversations that don't relate to TES 'which game is da best' contests, truly a bane upon this small corner of /v/

>>714612389
Their existence means nothing if the majority of the player base does not acknowledge them. Again, you are only the person tarding out over Hammerfell for a reason.

>>714612920
Me
Games exist

You
Yes but no

Only one of us is tarding out.

>>714612756
Apparently it is just a boogeyman used by a discord group of at least three people to derail threads.
One of them will throw up an info graphic soon. That is standard operating procedure.

if a video game falls in a forest and no one's around to play it,

Where are you plugging in your console or PC in this forest?

All I know is that The Last Dragonborn is canonically supposed to be a Nord and to state otherwise makes you canonically a BIG BITCH.

Whatever you played as is what is Canon in your game.

>He doesn't know that true nords worship a god of banditry
You stupid ass faggot secondary.
Go watch some larpagan viking shit, it's more your speed.

>>714614492
You are confusing me not caring what you said with not comprehending what you said.

My point about Hammerfell being overused as a setting in games stands.
These games still exist even if you have convinced yourself they don't.

>>714614269
>Imperials fuck these things
Is there anything less surprising? I guess it’s still better than fucking an Imperial woman.

>>714615128
These creatures are simply distant.. cousins of the proud snow elven race, they are reserved for nordcucks to spice things up when they get bored of fucking goats.

What is deal with painting imperials as feminine but nords masculine?

>>714615504
If there was a feminine mannish race it would be the Bretons. The merrish blood turns all the males into estrogents. This explains their reliance on magic as well.

Ranking races by smell from best to worst:
1) Bretons
2) Altmer
3) Imperials
4) Nords)
5) Argonians
6) Redguards
7) Bosmer
8) Dunmer
9) Khajiit
10) Orcs

>>714614936
I am not denying their existence, I am saying that the setting isn't "overused" to the vast majority of players.

>>714616337
who are the pajeets of the elder scrolls races

>>714616550
dunmer or khajiit or nibenese

>>714616550
Malacath, patron of the Orcs is literally a steaming pile of shit and his realm is made up entirely of his braps

>>714605705 (OP)
As far as human races go, the power ranking goes Breton > Nord > Imperial
Breton magic resist + magic aptitude is too OP

>>714616337
The first three track. They seem the foppish types to use perfume.
I would guess Argonians would be neutral smelling.
Nords l, Orcs, and Bosmer are more outdoorsy types so BO may be an issue.
Redguard, Khajit, and Dunmer all have reasons to be at the bottom.

>>714616550
Dunmer are heavily inspired by Hindus

>>714616337
Khajiit women smell good thoughbeit

>>714616460
My point wasn't about the majority of players.
My point was how it has been overused in games. That exist whether you like it or not.

>>714616776
hah

>>714605705 (OP)
>make Roman race
>finally time to go to their home province
oh boy this is gonna be sweet

SHAME. SHAME ON THE HOUSE OF HOWARD FOR SUCH INCOMPETENCE

>>714616916
Khajiit women give you toxoplasmosis

>>714616550
Dunmer also share the jeet aversion to shitting indoors. Well the natives anyway. They can be domesticated once they are exposed to civilization.

>>714609381
The only reason you see your kind in media such as games and movies, is because Whitey allowed it to be there. Much like in every avenue of life, Whitey accepts low standards from none Whiteys, because it wouldnt be fair to you if we gave you a fair shot

>>714616985
I'm completely serious. Zurin Arctus and Tiber Septim are both Bretons

>>714617047
I prefer my Cyrodiil Chinese

>>714616949
But that's my point. Being overused doesn't matter when most players have never played a game in the setting.

>>714617236
shhh dont let them know that, thats advanced knowledge for bretons only

>>714612502
every race is racist, you’re not special dungmer

Don't care, I am huffing that sweet piece of furry ass

>>714617312
> You are technically correct.
That is the best kind of correct.

>>714617463
Someone with a Nord name, Hjalti Early Beard,was given a Nord honorific, Talos Stormcrown, by Nord mercenaries after using a power associated with Nords, the Thu'um.

Clearly a Breton.

Try reddit.

>>714617618
Sorry. Todd watched Fellowship over the weekend and now all your lore is gone

>>714617236
I always like playing skyrim as a breton, Since most of the emperors with dragon blood and who were dragonborn in the past were breton, it feels almost the perfect choice to be the wildcard that comes in and saves the region.

>>714617618
We were robbed of our ludo
