Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim
AceHigh:
Yeah, the choice between Empire and stormcloaks is not about "good and evil".
Imperials tried to chop of your head in the beginning of the game, therefore joining stormcloaks seems like the only logical thing to do. Also personal political viewpoints can help to choose the side. For me personally sovereignty of people is important and having elves shoving their religion down the throats of the Nords made the choice of stormcloaks simpler.
Not to mention that if you do a fine job as a Dark Brotherhood assassin, then Empire will become even more weakened and nothing more than luggage for Skyrim (and other provinces)
In either case next game will reveal how the storyline will continue. After all Skyrim did a good job to reference to the fact that the Empire started dying after Martin Septim died in Oblivion. Also, return of the Psijics? Hell, the political demographics in the next game will surelly be interesting. I hope for Elsewyr personally.

Hmm.. any other suggestion for sexy armors? (pic related)

Yea, I was thinking about that too. But maybe since the dragonborn bloodline of emperors was broken, you now have a legitimate claim to the throne. Maybe you can even rally the empire to drive back the Thalmor and get some payback from the Great War. So I was mostly thinking in what path I should take to get to that..
Getting Skyrim with the stormcloaks can help give you an army to back your claim to the throne at the expense of making the empire weaker than it already is. But maybe the devs wanted this to mirror the collapse of the Roman Empire, with Skyrim acting as the barbarian horde. Either way the Thalmor seems to be the greatest threat at the moment, but maybe the Psijics will act like deus ex machina and just buzz right in out of the blue.

Now some news on the technical issues.
Those who bought the game for PS3 are suckers. Not in the sense of "idiots", but in a sense "got screwed over".
Both consoles and PC have the problem that savegames become bigger and bigger the more you manipulate the world. PS3 is the first one to break because of memory limitations, Xbox has poor performance after a while as well. PCs can overcome this problem by simply having over the top specs, but even though my PC should handle this really well, I can see how my games gets slower the more I play.
This is not a bug and it is not console's fault. It is the flawed Creation Gamebryo engine that has always had this problems. It was just not as noticeable with Morrowind and to some extent Oblivion, because it didn't have so meny entities in the game.
Basically: Bethesda, dump you shitty Gamebryo engine and make one from scratch which is less retarded!

I was gonna go mage for this game but my friend is playing one, so I wanted to do something different. Figure i'll go pretty much pure warrior. Felt like making a character modeled after Kenpachi from Bleach.
QUick opinion question from you guys: High elf or Nord? Nord makes more sense, but i checked and the High elfs are noticeably taller than Nords. Plus theyre the only race with a spikey hair style. Unfortunately the Nords do not have one =( I was also wondering What you guys think for the Weight slider. I was thinking about it and Kenpachi is tall and cut but hes not really super buff like cranking the weight bar makes you. Should i leave it in the middle? A notch to the right or so? Several notches to the left? Its kinda a pain checking the weight bar with your shirt off since it takes like 10-15 minutes to get to the point where you can take your shirt off and pull the camera back.
Im leaning to the High elf just for the looks, but like i said im concerned i may get gimped since i dont plan on using many spells. Anyone whos put some hours in that can give me your opinion? I will only be upping alteration a bit for ironskin and the like. Possibly a bit of illusion for paralyse and fear spells. I'll be going either 1h or 2h havent decided yet.

Are you on PC? As far as sexy goes, this is about as hot as they get: http://skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2517
Well, unless you count nude mods.
There's some other various things people like to reskin like the robe the daedra Nocturnal wears...
If you're the assassin sort: http://skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=724

Elves look like ass in this game. Wonky eyes.
There are several katanas in-game though. One from the blades, one a daedric artifact called the Ebony Blade (which sucks for a 2h main), and an ebony greatsword... which personally, I reskinned to the ebony blade mesh.
