Starting to hate High Elves

Post » Tue Dec 13, 2011 5:36 pm

Ok i wont base the entire race around it but I am really starting to hate the High Elves in Skyrim. Stupid Thalmor. First they take over the empire and they have that cocky attitude.

Amen I hope for DLC that will further the story based around taking down (or for those who like the other side) or join them and further their goals. Every time I see them on the roads I make sure to tell them I plan to worship as i please before sending them to their gods.

I'm a wood elf and I'm getting hated on just because I'm an elf I hate the high elves too.

When I run into them on the road, I make sure to tell them I can worship who I please. That way they draw down first, and I pull out my special max damage greatsword ROFLSTOMP! and smack everloving crap out of those snooty pointy eared bastiches.

It makes me feel good every time.; Especially when I get a decapitate, and Fus-Do-Ruh that head down the road.

The Thalmor are a** holes. I saw some on the road, and I really wanted to strike them down.

...but I didn't.

you're racist.

quick, crucify this guy.

Ya I hate them too. At first I wasn't sure why so many people did, all I knew was the war, but hating them just because of politics was beyond me. Then I read some books, and eventually talked to one. Ya..thats what got me to change their attitude. I mean, these guys openly stake their superiority? And then turn around to ask me for a bidding like I'm some kind of lapdog. Ya...ended up assassinating that bastard.

My high elf knows the Thalmor are nothing more than a bunch of emberassments to Summerset that are going to give the Isles a very very very bad name for a long time down the line.

I used to just dislike the Thalmor a lot but it turned into hate yesterday when I decided to do my usual thing with the Justicars and provoke them into attacking me so that their captive could run free, but instead of just focusing on me they killed their captive first... needless to say I brought fury upon them unlike any that a Thalmor has ever seen.

But the Thalmor are just one organization of the Altmeri race, I won't judge all Altmer by them, but do I hate the Thalmor ? Heck yeah! (at least until I make my own evil Altmeri mage (after we get spell-making ofc) who will be pro-Thalmor)

Ive always liked the high elves and their arrogance, but they always had the power to back it up. All my best mage characters on every elder scrolls game was a high elf. Plus i really wish they have a dlc that lets you join the thalmor if you're a high elf, though i highly doubt it.

I just stared them down when I encountered the Thalmor escort one day whilst walking. Didn't do much but I sure kept staring.

Because Bretons is the superior race...obviously. Misguided sentiments need to die hard and so I must kill every Thalmor I see.

Take over the Empire? That is incredibly wrong.

I've hated them since Oblivion. I can think of several long quest lines where the antagonist was an Altmer.

I used to hate high elves, but I married one and we're going to have lots of big burly pointy eared children... NAHHHH! Still hate the puny, dagger-eared filth, wouldn't piss on one if it were on fire, would be a waste of good recycled mead.

Yes, I'm racisit, but only against the Altmer, I like the other races.

Don't think that the Dominion is not monitoring this thread. We'll find you all.

I honestly think they are cool as [censored]. I've heard my share of bad publicity about the Thalmor, their boycott of Talos worship, their SUPER smug attitudes, the fact that ALL Thalmor are High elves, the fact they are elves in general...

Heck, even when I heard about Thalmor purging their own provinces my stomach turned a little.

Once I read a book on the Great War, I had mad respect for them. Taking power into their own hands from the empire, then usurping provinces from the Empire and then one day showing up and saying,"Hey guys, you need to do this, this and oh yeah, this too or we will wage war against you."
The empire didn't take them seriously and look what happened, the Imperial City got sacked and the empire was nearly destroyed.

Don't get me wrong, the Empire has alot of my respect too, I mean look at them! They retook the Imperial City a year later when the Elves thought they were completely wiped out.

So in the end, they have as much respect as the empire does from my perspective.
