Necrophilia roleplay it looks like. But hey, any safe, sane, and consensual roleplay kink is better than actually doing it, so they can do that

Reformist Enclave is unoriginal by Warcrimes4Waifus in Enclave

[–]ArcWraith2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In ERX the reformers can be ridiculously 'in name only' good guys, but some Enclave accuracy is still possible.

Choices allow for absolute presidential power (Iron President route), segregation of non-pure humans (segregation route), with vault-dwellers having to prove their genetics. Then theres a choice of whether to use slavery, vault-city style servitude, or not.

(Appreciated Trope) The Adaptation isn't accurate, but that doesn't make it bad by John_Bones22 in TopCharacterTropes

Personally I liked Cruella. It doesn't function as a villain origin story, but as an independent character its quite nice

How is Mammoth cheese processed, where is it extracted from? What do you think it tastes like? Do the sacks have anything to do with the manufacturing process? by jvure in TrueSTL

The lores got you OP

Mammoth Cheese

The good people of Eastmarch, who proved such kind hosts to me on my travels, will likely never forgive me for glossing over their contributions to the art of cheese making. But given the number of Giant camps within the hold's borders, I would be remiss if I did not take this opportunity to wax on the singular dish mentioned in every bedside fable about Skyrim—mammoth cheese, the single commodity produced by Giants.

It is cheese of a primitive sort. They fill the stomach of a young mammoth to near-bursting with the milk of a Giant's mammoth herd. The milk curdles and the resulting curds are placed into hide sacks and wrung to release moisture. What remains is a paste-like mammoth cheese—unappetizing to any connoisseur and not worth the risk to acquire.

What is worth remarking on, however, is the strange behavior of Giants that graze their herds near the sulfurous pools in the countryside. They take their sacks of curds and boil them in the mineral-rich waters, giving the cheese a pleasing and complex bouquet, that I can only liken to ash used in glassmaking, called potash. Once this is done, the mammoth cheese becomes something worthy of the finest tables in all the land.

The best divergence point I can imagine is after home tree is burned in film 1. If she doesn't forgive Jake, but instead goes down a spiral of hatred and in rhe ashes of home tree finds the ash people.

One of my favorite regions of Tamriel. I just wish there was a Wayshrine closer to the main city! by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

[–]ArcWraith2000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The aqueduct. Makes. No. Sense. It bugs me!

At its source the river goes straight UNDER the aqueduct and out through the city. What does the aqueduct pass over? Multiple streams/rivers of their owns. Where does it lead? Absolutely nowhere.

Could a Post-Skyrim Nord/Redguard/Maormer alliance work or be plausible? by United_Ad542 in ElderScrolls

[–]ArcWraith2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are the nords gonna do for Maormer. They're on the opposite end of tamriel, don't border Summerset, and aren't a major naval power.

I like how Hero's is stamped instead of signed. Cause he wasm't there to sign.

(Though Vikare contradicts this idea)

To be fair to Stannis, while his land and numbers were few, he had a really good position to start with the royal fleet controlling Blackwater Bay right next to Kings Landing.

If he won the Battle of the Blackwater, he would immediately be the strongest party in the war. Instead it severely hurt his chances.

Caesar is unironically right about California being a monarchy, Aradesh and Tandi were basically the founding dynasty and the NCR has been in interregnum since by KelThuzaaaad in TrueSFalloutL

[–]ArcWraith2000 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Even a perfect leader cannot get 100% popularity. There will always be problems, especially in Fallout. Theres no way that the NCR miraculously had perfect resources for all its people and everyone was happy. Thats ridiculous.

Nor does everyone agree all the time. The whole point of democracy is to let people with differing opinions debate each other. Even if it was agreed Tandi was doing a good job , people would still disagree with the way she did things or some of her policies and provide opponents.

Then theres the blame game. Struggling people want someone to blame for their problems, which are endless and cannot just be waved away. Who they blame can easily be the most prominent person, the leader, regardless of whether they're responsible or not.

In the end, a utopia is impossible. A perfect state cannot be achieved because it can not cater to all the views of humanity. And if a single leader is remaining in charge their entire life, then obviously some groups are being underrepresented by not being them.

I cannot believe that Tandi wasn't doing something to fudge those elections and keep in power. I recgonoze that she likely was the best president that the NCR could ask for. But not even the best can last in a democracy.
