So the civil war questline in Skyrim ends with either the Imperials winning or the Stormcloaks winning. This decision is ultimately decided by the player when choosing sides at the beginning of the game. My question is: how does Bethesda decide what happens next in the series if the ending of Skyrim (aside from the Dragonborm main questline) was left up to the player? OR did they just decide that the Stormcloaks are supposed to be the victors (cannon)? Does that make sense?
