Not only did the final outcome matter not at all in the grand scheme of things, but neither side even tried to offer any compelling reason to join. The truth is, I felt the Empire vs. Stormcloak bit was the weakest part of the game. I can't find … Well let me educate you on why I can't bring myself to join the blue-clad rebellion. However, they both hate the Thalmor and want the same things so why not join together and wipe them out? So they can't be that racist, right? 13 comments. It really doesn't matter who you'll join. They also have the Dragonborn on their side. No, not because the Stormcloaks resemble Trumpism or that they're racists, but rather, how transposing myself to think like a conservative Republican or a Trump supporter made me feel that no matter how 'righteous' they felt, their actions were hurting the country. I have never heard of mods where you can convince him to take the side your and I can't use them since I have no internet. Whoever is saying you can't join the Thalmor because they are "evil" is just wrong.

Because most Skyrim players especially don't pay attention to- or give a shit about the Elder Scrolls lore and overarching story. While Stormcloaks fight for the right to pray whoever they want and for freedom, the Empire fight for a united land and equality for all races. I predict that's exactly what their plan was; to create a civil war in the province and take over it once both sides are weakened. How the hell do you "accidentally" kill a person in skyrim? Before you ask, yes, I am a strong Stormcloak supporter. That's nice and all, but it severely weakens the province for a Thalmor attack. Anyway, When I go to castle dour, I see leggete Rikke, but not general Tulius. It's all about personal choice, really. I mean on one hand you have the Stormcloaks that vie for Skyrim's Independence. Earlier in the game I couldn't continue the main quest because of the Join the Stormcloaks bug (more information): I had to use the setstage xyz command to fail the Joining the Stormcloaks quest to proceed.But now I can't take it on. Its not very hard. Just to be clear, I did not join the stormcloaks, so that is not why I can't join. I also picked the Stormcloaks because it was pitched as 'xenophobic, racist, shit elves and the empire are eradicating a whole culture because they can.' Its weird, but because of the US presidential elections, it calls to mind Skyrim and the Stormcloaks. 1.) share. Not evil, but definitely villains. Why I can't be a Stormcloak... Jarl Balgruuf the Greater.

I'm a Dunmer, it would be like an African American joining the Confederacy. I can't talk to Galmar = Can't join Stormcloaks PC SSE - Help So after hunderds of hours in game I finally decided to join the poor Stormcloacks, but when I go to the palace all Ulfric is telling me is to talk with Galmar and of course.. It's a win win situation: The stormcloaks get talos and many other freedoms back and because the empire is still here, the amount of racism would also decrease. The way that the Stormcloaks treat the Dunmer and Argonians bring back flashbacks of how the Nazis treated Jews before they started shipping them off to camps.

I can't join the Stormcloaks. I mean, ive killed plenty of both imeprials and stormcloak patrols and I didn't even get a bounty. I did it as an assassin Dunmer. I just can't backstab this guy, I might have once just to see the story line.

Both sides have their goods and bads. I bet you're wondering why?
