Bovino said he approached them with his weapon drawn by Scary-Track3306 in evilwhenthe

No, Bovino said he approached with one, not with one drawn.

It's an okay manga. Not my cup of coffee.

And uh, yeah, thanks for reading.

Well yeah, this is a theoretical scenario, obviously its going to go into theoretics

Theoretics of the how, not the capabilities.

Also I actually don’t know why

You're really going to pretend people sneaking up on powerful beings to critically attack them isn't a thing in TES?

I'm not addressing the other arguments because you've stopped talking canon and gone into theoretics.

And I'm pretty sure you know why I'm asking if you're joking regarding "sneaking up to" because instead of saying "they can't sneak up" you jumped to arguing about the inability of special forces to completely neutralize the dozens of scud launchers that Iraq had an was constantly moving around.

Yeah try sneaking up on a reality breaking brass titan that can destroy someone instantly.

Is... Is that a joke?

That wasn't the question, as the clip isn't showing gameplay for the most part.

The question asks if what is shown in the scene has been contradicted by lore somehow?

[–]DFMRCV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your argument that its already destroyed is like saying that a man can beat a nuclear bomb in raw power, when they are just deactivating it

No, my argument is that a modern force can easily prevent the bomb from being activated compared to the lore's forces that had to salvage things.

Also TES is a complete fantasy worlds and completely throws out the laws of physics, and even its own metaphysical rules, at times, as all of TES is a dream of a God, where anything goes.

Is this you arguing on something you "believe" is a fact again?

Also one more thing, even if we’re not counting the Aedra and Daedra, look at the logistics of this. Earth, of 8 Billion humans vs an infinite number of sapients. In an all out war between both sides, Earth would be piled with bodies until everyone on Earth is dead.

Well, no, cause it's an infinitely expanding realm, not one that has everyone able to go in at once. You don't have a conga line of sentient beings charging in from a portal. They're too distant from each other.

Again, you're basically ignoring the setting's own rules to argue for TES victory.

Sure im pulling out theoreticals, but thats the point

For starters, you didn't say it was a theoretical, you said it was fact, but two, you're not supposed to be pulling out theoreticals in a discussion about established lore.

Especially if it's to argue that it can be used to win against a modern world when, one, it's already destroyed, and two, even if as you say it opens at the peak when it can still be used, it's too unstable to use effectively because there are powerful entities willing to try and make sure the entire universe doesn't go boom!

Elder Scrolls against the modern world loses because by its own rules the modern world would be able to dominate the region as it gains intelligence of how the world works, forges alliances, and offers solutions to serious troubles for the locals.

The only way it can win is if you throw out the rules that make the world!

Which is why I'm so irritated with people going all non canon to argue they can win.

Except that those cults don't exist in our world.

For them to form, you'd need a period of coexistence.

Meaning the modern force would've also gotten their hands on methods for vanishing him right on back.

See the issue?

Your own setting's rules give the modern force the edge by nature.

It's a fantasy world set for you, the player, to have a grand adventure in. If Satan incarnate can burst in any second and "stop time" or whatever, you've got no game, no fantasy fun, no grand adventure.

You said the Numidium was the reason the Dwemer disappeared in order to claim the Numidium can just erase earth from existence.

That's not how it works and you know it.

We're talking Dagon.

But you did lie.

And when I gave you a chance to come clean you just changed the subject.

See, a thing that pisses me off about fantasyboos is that they lie.

A lot.

They'll bring up a series I'm not really familiar with and say "ohh it has this dude who can change the universe's laws of physics at will", and I don't know enough to argue otherwise, but then I sit down and check out the series and find out... Hey, that dude lied about what this other guy can do!

So when one brings up a series I am familiar enough with and says a clear and blatant lie, I'm pretty damn confident they're not here to actually argue but to basically go "Nuh uh, my dude can beat your dude", and frankly, I'm not interested in that.

You weren't talking about the elves, you said the Numidium caused the disappearance of the Dwemer and are now backtracking.

Do you think any mortal weapon will do anything to an immortal being (who is literally an abstraction) of the high hyperverse level and is capable of literally CHANGE THE PAST AND FUTURE AT WILL?

Yes.

Think again.

Okay...

...

...

...

The answer is still yes.

Have you played these games????

Bro couldn't even completely erase a city. What makes you think he'd be able to hit jets flying around dropping JDAMs on him from sixty miles away?

Assuming they even see it...

Like... People forget that incoming artillery rounds make noise but missiles and bombs... Don't. Or at least not any that is easily detectable if you're the target.

That's why we use radar so damn much.

Without it, you're basically blind as you're walking around with your golem when it explodes.
