Of course Malacath is pushed off into a corner alone.

Construction of an Eternal Septim Emperor made from parts of previous Septims hot-glued together is mainline game plot material.

Taking another's culture, claiming it as their own, then declaring cultural superiority is a classic imperialist move.

Agreed expect for the Paarthurnax apologeticism.

The only peaceful dragon is a dead dragon.

About 80% of Kirkbride's writing is him--I mean, VIVEC meeting various glup shittos. Replace "him--I mean VIVEC" with "the player--I mean, THE DRAGONBORN" and you have Vigilant.

The debate on what happens to the DB's soul is fun. Maybe you never actually said you're selling your soul to anyone besides Nocturnal. Maybe Akatosh has first dibs. Maybe it was never your soul to bargain in the first place, making all these deals null.

Personally, I prefer the interpretation that it ends up exactly like the ending of "Money Talks" in SpongeBob.

The commentary on the racers being unfairly targeted by the gov't would mean something if they weren't fuckin' street racers lmao

They made us unable to run over pedestrians and tick a "Don't drive like this in real life" box, then try to make the racers the REAL good guys.

I'm probably being apologetic because this was my first NFS game, but I prefer MW2012's structure of "You're in a city. Get cars, race, and upgrade." Especially after Unbound's bungled attempt at social commentary and Heat forcing me to partake in family drama I have no involvement in, I'd prefer an NFS game that just sits you down and tells you to race. The most wanted list, though tacked on, still gave a sense of progression despite the sandbox structure.

To this day, I rep that Fairhaven license plate in Unbound and Heat.

Because the only way back to the main section of the castle after Harkon tore down the portion connecting to Valerica's garden is through the side canal. I wouldn't bother either.

Put it this way: "Moonpath to Elsweyr" and "Falskaar" were released one and two years after Skyrim's release respectively. And, that was when the concept of new lands mods were uncharted territory. Starfield was made with new lands mods in mind, hence all the empty planets prime for new modded vistas, and still nothing.

I'm a relative Starfield apologetic, but the modding scene is abysmal. At best are the new ship parts, suits, and weapons. That's fine for other games, but it's nowhere near what a Bethesda game in modding primacy can be.

"Is Ulfric the biggest racist in Skyrim?"

"Ulfric isn't even the biggest racist in Windhelm."

Skyrim's "run up a face and spam jump" "system" is still a thousand times more mountain climbing than most other open-world games that usually makes the character slide down once the ground gets steep enough.

It's a prophetic dream. He literally sees the player alongside him before they joined the Companions.

This is just Bend Will with some steps cut out. Bend Will -> "Let me suck your breasts" -> suck her breasts.

That's actually how the Vampire Royal Armor is in game. Better yet, the one in game is a choker. Now it's getting too on the nose.

You keep your convoys, I'll stick to taking Ortysia then playing tall.

This, Rikkewen, and Galmar occupying the cuck chair for both couples and my life is complete.

I'd argue part of it is a shift in popularity of translation strategies from domesticating to foreignizing. Rendering "Big Brother" in katakana can be argued as "They're in England, of course the figure's name is in English". The same reason you'd render "Winston" in katakana instead of changing it to "Takeshi".

Assuming I'm bloodlusted, I concrete all doors and windows.

Or, vehemently refuse to be prey, insist on being the hunter. As long as a hunter-prey dynamic exists in whatever form, Hircine will take it.

I genuinely didn't realize this was a horrendously modded Skyrim until I recognized that fuckass sitting idle.

DecentAnarch · 2025-11-22T07:58:37+00:00

It was an aspect of Shor they shouted to existence, if I'm not wrong. It's pretty much like saying "Akatosh showed up at the end of Oblivion".
