My main playthroughs were as an Orc and as an Argonian.

Don't support racism. Down with the Stormcloaks.

I really hate how they won't let me join the Blades without killing him.

Over 10 years later and killing Paarthurnax is still the one thing in Skyrim I've never done.

I've never killed Paarthurnax. I always let him live and then used a console command to make the Blades friendly towards you too

There's no real justification for doing it

I avoided killing him using console commands because I trust him and the greybeards more than the blades. I also didn't pick a side in the civil war and I tried to split things up evenly at the summit thing with the 2 sides. I had the thalmor chick fuck right off out of the meeting though.

When a certain Blade gives me an ultimatum to kill Paarthy, I would've stabbed said Blade if I could've. Maybe there's a mod for that. Hell, I'm sure there's a mod for that.

Regardless of the mod, that's not Paarthurnax.

Forget killing Paarthurnax, imagine unironically joining the Stormcloaks.

Well I actually join the storm cloaks but in my defense, it was my first playthrough and I didn't really understand the lore. I just saw an empire occupying a land and the other side being a rebellion. Usually in fiction, rebels are the good guys

Anyway I didn't even finish the Civil War. I remember I accidently fucked up some battle or something. They gave me a quest to take part in a town invasion or something. I was on some escort quest with some other npc and we walked near the target of that battle quest. And I guess it activated the battle but I thought I could do it later and just kept on with the escort.

Later, I got yelled at for being a coward. After that I just fucked off from that whole storyline l. I did take part in the 2 sides having a meeting but I don't remember how it played out and didn't really care. At that point I was just only doing main story quests

I will say this. The empire tries to execute you at the start so it doesn't really make sense to join them later. That was my other main reason for joining the storm cloaks. Really, both sides, once you have all the facts, are assholes

The opening of the game is the Empire trying to execute you for no reason alongside the Stormcloaks who act super cool.

I think that made most players side with them

Exactly. I never understood why so many people act like it's so obvious the storm cloaks are bastards, when you just started the game. Only thing I can think of is people waited a long time in the game before they picked a side. I initially was interested in the Civil War story and went to join a side as soon as I could

I don't know if Bethesda publishes statistics or anything, but I'm willing to bet that the majority of players still side with the Empire.

I would be interested in knowing why they side with them and how far did they explore the game before they picked a side. I'm confident that most people who, like me, rushed to sign up in the Civil War right after the intro, picked the stormcloaks
