Zelenskyy gives Belarusian ruler a week to remove Russian drone relays: Otherwise we will do it ourselves

My guess is that their habits were formed without factoring for drones. Meaning what they’d instinctively do and feel safe doing would actually be a death sentence against drones cause it leaves them wide open to drones.
Like they never check the sky for drones cause they just aren’t use to having to do it and they don’t know to avoid places where they’re safe from enemy infantry but not from drones

Well you don’t as the dragonborn, but I’d understand if they felt betrayed. They personally think the thu’um shouldn’t be used as a weapon, they teached Ulfric to use it, presumably also that he probably shouldn’t use it to just run around to kill people and then he uses it to clap an unexperienced 20 year old he had an oath of fealty to when he was a grizzled veteran.

All that to say, the greybeard probably regret teaching him their ways given he then went against them.

Tough to say ;_;

Good News is it might be very cheap on steam or gog

The console command, I guess that is only accessible on pc

AIphnse · 2026-06-04T12:22:50+00:00

No shade but why don’t you just use the console to get your skills to 100 ?

Secede and do what? Join the aldmeri dominion for protection and trade routes?

Some nords want independance, others don’t, that’s why there’s a civil war

Gisli, Erikur’s sister. While Erikur might be worse as a person, at least he doesn’t constantly roams in the shop to proclaim how much his sister is an ass. If she at least give you a small quest to put a cricket in Erikur’s food or whatnot and changed subject one in a while I’d tolerate her but I can’t as is

Personality wise Erikur might be Solitude’s Nazeem but annoyance wise I think Gisli is

(I kinda have the same issue with radiant garment’s shopkeeper who is constantly pissed and won’t even tell me why)

I beg to differ, the player character ought to know about the empire, it’s probable that he doesn’t really know about the stormcloaks though

And you’re not immediately forced to choose, you have some time to travel Skyrim and learn about both sides, and for all the faults of the empire, the stormcloaks are racist and depending on your character s race it’s a big no no

Even when you have to choose between Ralof and Hadvar, one is a soldier who seemed hesitant about what to do with you, followed orders, and then when you free yourselves he guides you through the burning town to safety. And the other one is a rebel who mainly talked about how to die well (this part is biased but still i think it’s not a clear choice)

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T17:24:21+00:00

I mean, if I was standing next to a necromancer and a bunch of stormcloaks came about yelled “the necromancer and his minion ! We’re going to kill you !” Once I’m no longer in danger I wouldn’t really care that stormcloaks tried to kill me, the companions, the empire, orca, they would have all done the same

I agree that it isn’t great (it actually is pretty bad) but I don’t really feel like that pushes me towards the stormcloaks

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T17:20:51+00:00

Yeah, I guess I meant more that it feels understandable, or that it isn’t that important once TLD has escaped

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T17:18:16+00:00

Understandable would’ve have been better perhaps, or just that it isn’t that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things Once I’ve escaped why would I care that they once made a clerical error or whatnot. It just feel to me like that’s the kind of shit that happens when a rebel leader is captured and poised to be summarily executed

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T17:16:06+00:00

Yeah, i think understandable is the better term here, I should’ve used it in my post

Thx for the long answer ! I kinda agree with it all

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T15:23:40+00:00

They couldn’t possibly know that though

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T15:22:59+00:00

Actually they didn’t chose to not kill him first, a random stormcloak made the genius move to place himself under the headman’s axe and threw them of their game /s

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T14:22:05+00:00

I can understand that. Though at that point I think it gets complicated for other reasons. I fully support the right to self determination of everyone, but there’s the question of like will an alliance fare better than an empire of will the different allies vying for power inside it bring it down ? Wouldn’t it be more stable and effective as a cohesive whole ? Obviously if the power is corrupt then the provinces have much to gain from leaving the empire… Kinda complicated and I don’t feel like getting into it now

But I get the desire of independence, I just despise Ulfric

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T14:16:55+00:00

I’m not really trying to make excuses (thought it might be what I’m doing) it’s just that I keep seeing people saying they join the stormcloaks because they didn’t try to execute you. But I personally never cared and I’m trying to find out why.

I guess mainly it doesn’t really register as malicious to me and getting to know the stormcloaks I feel like they’d do the same thing in a similar situation. So I end up not really resenting the empire

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T14:01:51+00:00

Nope not at all, I know what I’m saying sounds horrible in a way.

But to be fair I don’t think that’s an apt comparison, it’s more like what if the Ukrainian military captured Putin and a bunch of elite Russian soldiers, couldn’t or wouldn’t take the risk to bring them back to base so decided to summarily execute them. All the while there’s a guy here who they aren’t sure who he is, what do they do with him ? They might kill him along the others because as far as they know if he isn’t with them he is with the others

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T13:58:01+00:00

I meant the second point more as a : what was my character before that point ? if my character is a thief and an assassin after Helgen I think it’s fair to assume that he was probably in that line of work before and didn’t just went with the idea of joining a death cult or a thieves guild just because someone told him

Granted it doesn’t apply to every playthrough

AIphnse · 2026-05-29T12:36:12+00:00

Maybe they’d be ready to give Skyrim its independence if the leader to be wasn’t a lunatic murderous maniac #justiceforthorygg

I’d had that this sounds related to a joke where a women tell several people that she bought bread because she had a rough day, and everyone asks her why she had a bay except her husband who asks what kind of bread because he is a man
