    Trust me, I come from a country that continued to run a trial for 11 years on a massacre that a 17 year old terrorist carried out in an airport. There was a video of him shooting people with an automatic gun and the court continued to discuss and debate.

    Justice when delayed is not justice at all...

    What the *** are we even talking about anymore?
    No one is saying there aren't multiple interpretations of the lore, and we're not arguing that ESO did it "wrong".

    We're arguing that they decided to go for the most boring, mundane, seen-before interpretation possible. Like they almost always do, unless they can ride on the coat-tails of past games.

    Basically in ESO, unless you're short and stuck in a tree, if you're an elf you're people are evil, and everyone else is worried you're going to do horrible things to them...

    Dunmer vs. Altmer… it's basically a race to the moral bottom.

    We were not complaining about Summerset, rather, the moral conduct of the Altmer, their philosophy and if it is evil and condemning to a certain section of society. Altmer caste systems and rigid hierarchy and Veloth's exodus was the topic... Did you think this was one of those threads where people were moaning about the new expansion(Which by the way is a visual treat, great work by Zenimax)?

    Uhh not sure what a lot of this post has to do with anything but okay... I was wondering why we were bringing up terrorists and airports. It was just shocking / kind of hilarious to come back to that.

    Glad you’re enjoying the expansion though.

    Considering that bosmeri culture features plenty of inter and intraracial cannibalism i think its quite reasonable to exclude the "unless you're short and stuck in a tree" part from your statement.

    Kind of of a double standard there seeing as Dunmer are arguably the most prevalent slavers in ESO lol

    we, the Ashlanders, we worship Azura, not the false Gods nor the Tribunal!
    and we don´t have slaves.

    The ashlanders are pretty weak

    What are they compared to everyone else?


    The great houses have far greater accomplishments and prestige in Tamriel with their advancements and power that even the Empire Feared them in Talo's time

    They just happen to be morally misguided as slavers. Which sucks, because other than that, they would be my favorite


    Strength and accomplishment isn’t a justification for an evil society. Besides, the fact that they keep slaves to do everything for them makes it pretty easy to dedicate their time to accumulating “prestige.”

    Also... “‘morally misguided” doesn’t begin to cover the mentality of a society of slavers.

    @Casowen: Let's also not forget how the spelling of "Summerset Isles", and even whether it was "Isles" or just simply "Isle", changes with each new TES game (it was "Summurset Isle in Arena, Sumurset Isle in Daggerfall, Summerset Isle in TES3-5, and, of course, Summerset Isles here, in ESO).

    Don't go overboard guys. And psychotrip i understand you have been wounded and disapponted but try to relax a bit. A game can't show every little aspect. Eg Firsthold has a system of crystal lasers protecting it. That's pretty advanced. And Sea Keep has a system of magic defenses that's pretty powerful. Altmer ride on gryphons. There are magic animals hopping around teleporting it's still pretty magical.

    And altmer buildings are shiny with marble . Breton castles are grimy and filthy. Only the white gold tower is as shiny and that's is a whole magical artefact itself.

    I mean, you are right to demand more and lore accurate stuff, but ar the same time give them a break. It's just an MMO after all and focus is on many things at the same time
