skyrimc0nfessions:



I hope Bethesda makes a add-on where it goes deeper into the Dragonborn’s past. Like what happened to the parents of the Dragonborn, something like that.”

noooooo… The whole point is that you make up your own character and be creative. I like some games that have a predefined protagonist just fine, but that’s not The Elder Scrolls. By creating a backstory they would be going against most players personal canon and restrict what kinds of characters would fit official canon. How could you even do a single backstory that covers, say, an Argonian assassin, a Nord berserker, a Khajiit thief, an Altmer mage, and a Dunmer refugee? Or what about a modded in race? I have a Snow Elf character who is mightily pissed at the Nords (and Dwemer, but they’re dead) after their, you know, mostly successful genocide and all, and being forced to live in secrecy his whole life, you really think it’s even possible for Bethesda could do a DLC that would cover that and ALSO would cover a Stormcloak sympathizing Nord who had lived in Whiterun their whole life?
