What is It with children now days....
You buy a game or story and then you skip everything to race to the end only to complain... imagine if you bought the entire series of Game of Thrones... or you buy the first and last book of the series and skip all of the middle... Would you understand anything or the thrill of why people are happy, sad or mad?
Joffrey was a ***... yes I said it... and he was a terrible king... karma made him choke on his own *** and he deserved that nasty death, as did his bioch of a mother. The sad part of it is that his father (read dad) never had the honor of his son knowing who his true father was.
Would you have known that if you skipped the books? Hell you wouldn't even know who Joffrey was if you skipped all of the story.
Elder Scrolls is one of the most successful franchises in gaming history because they have amazing lore. They present stories like no other company, and all others have modeled off of them and D&D.
