This is heresy and I refuse to stand for it.
The tribunal did defeat Dagoth Ur. Many, many, times. The problem is that he always came back. He also was certainly not alone - he had the full force of the 6th House behind him.
The Three could have destroyed Dagoth Ur after the first time. The problem is that would have destroyed them too, because their power came from the exact same source. Because he couldn’t be killed, then, he grew in power and the Three grew weaker until they really couldn’t kill him.
Even when he captured Sunder and Keening, it was by ambush, not in open combat, and only against Ayem and Seht. When Vehk showed up, he drove Dagoth away and saved the other Tribunes.
Dagoth was not a genius or a god. He was a madman and a traitor who brute-forced a situation in which he held all the cards. Remember, only the Three are worthy of worship. The Sharmat is false. To follow the Devil of Dagoth means only death.
i've said it before and i'll say it again, do you ever think about how dagoth ur managed to hold the red mountain for hundreds & hundreds of years? it was 3vs1, talk about fake ass tribunal gods. or alternatively dagoth was so competent with his godhood and warfare that the tribunal just couldn't secure access to the heart no matter what even though they desperately needed to replenish their powers yearly. whichever it was, almsivi were so scared that all they could do effectively was to scribble booklets of how he's the satan. it's pretty clear who's actually worth the worship here tbh

The difference is that, yknow, the bbc isn’t funded by an autocratic fascist government. England is not a police state with a vested interest in keeping its citizens misinformed. Russia… is.
rt is propaganda because it funded by russian government but bbc, australian broadcasting corporation, npr, korean broadcasting system, svt, television new zealand, radio canada, npo and france 24 totally objective source of informative news despite also being state funded. great work today everyone hit the showers
sometimes I go on rule 34 and read out the comments in the voice Drew Gooden uses when he’s reading the titles of bad movies.
strongly disagree. Oblivion is nothing and will always be nothing. It’s vapid, shallow, and unable to write a complex or interesting story to save its life.
I have given it more than enough honest tries. It was awful the day it came out and always will be awful.
Another one of my lukewarm TES takes is that Oblivion is actually a good game with touching storylines and all it takes for it to be engaging is to give it an honest try. Like yeah, it is undoubtedly, and often unintentionally, a very 'memey' game and yeah the bugs are frustrating, and the bad VA outtakes are funny, and the character models are questionable, but beyond that there's a lot of sincerity and depth which often goes unnoticed.
I think that this statue of Morihaus represents the rot at the heart of TES IV.
Because this is fundamentally NOT Morihaus. It is, because the game says it is, but… you’re telling me THIS is Morihaus the man-bull? Morihaus breath-of-Kyne? The father of all Minotaurs?
Oblivion was obsessed with doing shit like this. Dumbing down and simplifying and normalifying good and interesting lore. They did the same thing with Cyrod itself, and with Pelinal (who was VERY CLEARLY written to be the setting’s version of Achilles, but instead was depicted as a High Medieval crusader.)
Was it really too hard to give us a game that wasn’t solely based on Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings, Todd?
