Elder Scrolls is literally the least "fash" fantasy out there. Yes, I am a huge fucking nerd, no I am not white, I'll see you in the comments mother fucker, I KNOW THE LORE! FIGHT ME!

    Elder scrolls is bad because they're too cowardly to let you play as a Dwarf (obviously best fantasy race) and all of their shitty lore is just making excuses about how the dwarves are too cool to let you play as them.

      The Dwemer are objectively the (second) most evil race behind the Alyieds, and not evil becuase of their race, but because of what their societies did, (lots and lots of slavery among other horrible institutional evil).

        Sorry, I won't hear this liberal take about the only species to achieve posadism.

          The Alyieds, or Heartland elves, are the elves that settled in what is now cyrodil, and the builders of the Imperial City and all the white marble ruins in oblivion. They enslaved the needic humans living in cyrodil and made extinct the bird like race that once inhabited the jungles of cyrodil. The Alyieds were destroyed by the slave uprising of St Alessia, who founded the first empire.

              Every society is kinda bad in TES, with maybe the exception of the Argionians. Doesn't mean it isnt an interesting fantasy world though.

            I see. I really appreciate the elder scrolls for making elves just straight-up evil as opposed to the impossibly pure way they are usually depicted.
