Are they just a We Wuz Wakanda cope race? All human races in the Elder Scrolls have a culture similar to their respective real life counterparts except Redguards. Black Africans have no rich history in being proficient swordsmen, pirates or sailors. Those qualities would more accurately be fit for Bretons second to the Akaviri
>>724556317No. They are moorish samurai. Sword singing is swinging a sword fast enough it cuts atoms and creates explosions, these fags walked sideways like John Lennon to infest Nirni.
>>724556317>Are they just a We Wuz Wakanda cope race?Yea. The Thalmor are awfully silent when it comes to insulting Redguards but really colorful when it comes to Nords. Interesting ins't that?
Redguards are actually pretty cool. But they’re only really interesting when paired with Bretons, which is why Daggerfall was good and Redguard was not. Bretons themselves have a little more going for them, with witch covens and reachmen and whatnot, but are still much more interesting when Redguards are involved.
>>724556698Play the games and you'll find out why.
>>724556317>Black AfricansMan, you're clueless. Redguards are North African Berbers.
>>724556458Moors weren't black though. They were more Arab looking
>>724556925Learn your fucking history anon. Ask yourself why the north west of africa is islamic. Look up why Spain used to be named Andalusia.
>>724556775I did
You don't want to do a digital blackface, do you /v?
Otherwise we could've gotten *shudder* black nords and imperials. Consider it a quarantine race.
>>724557232I do, but I really like african folk tales. You know these goobers have their own Loki type trickster god irl about shitposting on your enemies?
>>724556458Well that cant be right. Redguards are more african than arabic
>>724557338my neovagina got so wet from reading this
>>724557089Muslim conquests by arabs. I'm well aware of that. It doesn't explain why Redguards look negro instead of arab decent
>>724556458>Sword singing is swinging a sword fast enough it cuts atoms and creates explosions,That's based on a retarded misreading of the term "atomos" (indivisible) as "atoms". Sword-singing is just another expression of the same sound-magic as the voice and dwemer tonal architecture, rewriting the rules of reality using sound. Specifically, Yokuda didn't fall because someone used a nuclear sword technique, it fell because someone cut the very concept of "Yokuda" with sword-singing.
>>724557338>are more african than arabicThey call themselves the alakir now anon. Al-Akhir is one of the 99 names of God, it is literally the last name of god in Islam.Most of TES is actually about a god that goes by many names and it leads up to the final moment someone escapes his prison dream. The Al in Alduin is used the same way. >>724557525Fusion. Its why the Bretons are based on french instead of britons. Its why the khajiits are cats but also gypos. Its why the dunmer are grey indians to contrast their golden brahmin selves but appeal primarily to gopniki.
>>724556698>Yea. The Thalmor are awfully silent when it comes to insulting Redguards but really colorful when it comes to Nords. Interesting ins't that?Because redguards aren't human in the same way that atmorans are. They are aliens from another kalpa and are philosophically closer to elves than humans.
>>724557525They probably thought>"Hmm we need more diversity"and put black people with Moorish backgrounds. The alternative was Black people with Sub-Saharan African culture which is notoriously insane and retarded and would've made Redguards the racist stereotype Bethesda was afraid of representing.
>>724557673Its both. The sword literally sings because it is cutting atoms. Thu'um is a more direct version of what you are describing. What the Yokudans are doing is slightly different since it is letting the weapon become an extension of the self which uses the same mechanics as other CHIMshit. These niggas canonically walked sideways because their snekgod told them how to escape their sinking continent. The continent was sinking because the Hoonding made a fucking atomic explosion. Pan - everythingKratos - mightPankratosword is the might of everything.
>>724556787>posts a picture of black africans from the mali empireinstead of north african berbersWay to disprove your own point
I think OP was expecting middle school racism and got actual race realism instead and got upset.
>>724557921>They are aliens from another kalpa and are philosophically closer to elves than humans.Doesn't stop them from hating Dunmer though.
>>724558591What race realism are you referring to? All I've gathered from the information provided in this thread was they are inspired by Moors and Arabs but were made more negro looking for diversity points.
>>724559343Probably referencing the measured responses talking about the Redguards when ohpee is trying really hard to guide the discourse into slurland.
>>724559197Redguards don't hate Dunmer to any notorious degree. They hate Orcs, Bretons, Nords and after the lore developments in Skyrim, Altmer.Besides, the Dunmer are basically the Mer equivalent to the Redguards in the sense that they're philosophically closer to Men than other Mer, so that guy's point wouldn't really apply in this case anyway.
>>724556317Redguards are just the black weeb race with light arabic theming lmao. They're pretty cool. Learn to separate real life niggers from a fictional race that just looks like niggers.>All human races in the Elder Scrolls have a culture similar to their respective real life counterparts except Redguards.Don't several African cultures have mudslime religion & traditions?
>>724559343Maybe the anon that linked them to muslims with their name Alikir and that being one of the names of god in muslim culture. Maybe the anon that casually broke down some latin in a /v/ thread on a whim.This thread is another version of reddit thinking we are monsters while we discuss puppies.
>>724559536I meant that doesn't stop the Thalmor from hating Dunmer.>>724559501I'm not OP. I am pointing out how you guys fail to see woke elements in older games. It's clear Kirkbride is a lefty with the "White Man's burden" complex and wanted to represent blacks in a good way instead of a realistic way because he knew that would be racially "problematic." Say or slur or don't, I don't give a fuck.
>>724557232>liberal girl wants to brag about how not racist she is>makes a post that unintentionally comes off as racistkek
>>724560000We see it anon. We laugh about a guy fucking a hill of mud in the lore. We laugh at giving kisses to our lovely Crassius Curio (funny pun name). We read the Lusty Argonian Maid (with our argonian maid). We know why dunmer aren't gold anymore. We know that Vivec sucked Molag Bal dick. We know a terminatorbot went insane because his femboy squire got killed. [insert image of Vivec staring at you with sanpaku eyes with the text "things are about to get weird" goes here]You newfaggot.
>>724560250Glad we agree that Kirkbride is a cuck. Still doesn't stop you guys from denying woke existed before 2015, though.
>>724560694Maybe you can dance to change our minds. You could try to walk this way, talk this waaaay!You know, something.
>>724560801White boys can't dance.
>>724557228In their creation myths, Redguards are Anuic (order) like the Elves, other human races are Padomaic (change, chaos)
>>724556317does anyone play as redguards?
I thought Redguards where Arabs and that the niggers were Argonians. Was i lied to?
>redguard can beat the thalmor on their own>nords can't???
>>724564485pretty much everyone in TES is niggers. >nords are violent retard niggers>dunmer are crabs in a bucket niggers>argonians are field niggers>imperials are lightskin urban niggers>khajit are thieving drug addicted niggers>bosmer are spear chucking niggers>altmer are we wuz godz niggers>redguards are nation of islam niggers>bretons are house niggers>dwemer are mystery niggers
>>724564485Yes because most people on the internet retarded, historically illiterate, and TES lorelets all at once so you should not trust any "Elder Scrolls race and their real life equivalents" list ever
>>724565421>dwemer are mystery niggersI thought that was the Akaviri
>>724561108this is what niggers consider dancing btw
>>724556787Then why are they black? Berbers are arab, Muslim Moroccans
>kangzland>veilguard writers>current bethesdates6 looking bright bros...haha.....
>>724565570Daggering will confound me until the day I die. There is no way this isn't painful to at least one party, and it's the antithesis of an elegant dance display. Jamaicans are a different breed.
>>724565605Berbers aren't arabs. They're linguistically and (to an extent) culturally their own thing. If they're arab just because they practice islam, speak arabic and wear turbans, then so are all the black africans in the sahel and the desert bits of West Africa.
>>724564485Only in the sense that they were enslaved a lot by the Dunmer but that's really all. Argonians are more like Aztecs when it comes architecture and Taoist/Buddhist when it comes to parts of their culture. If anything Khajiits are true "niggers" in the sense that they have zero self reflection and just see something like stealing as simply being smarter than others.
>>724556317Yeah. It's Kirkbride feeling white/half caste guilt and coming up with a way to make Black folx look cool so that he in return will be considered cool by niggers. That's not how it works, but that's how he imagined it. When Cyrus' voice actor said "u aight whiteboy", Kirkbride had a sissygasm. It was very common in the 90s and 00s for "creatives' to push this. It's very different from today's DEI and Finkbuxx, as it's simply a nerdy guy's perception of what a cool black guy is and is totally insensitive to real life niggas.
>>724565846They look no different from arabs tho?
>>724566574Yeah, and as we all know, the japanese are merely chinese people living on an island
>>724565164n*rds are weak racist backwards pussies while Redchads are the most naturally talented warriors of Tamriel, cultured, refined, wise, poet-warrior kings, respected by everyone.
>>724557338>being a white person is so alien to black people they cant relate to a white protagonistI love the subtext
>>724566249Argonian religion isn't Buddhist/Taoist in the slightest. Where the fuck did you even get that idea from? If anything that's literally the Khajiit, their religion is centered around living according to a specific set of rules and natural laws that lead to the best path possible dictated to them by a religious leader they believe is one guy reincarnating over and over again with a big emphasis on martial arts.
>>724557338Real talk though, does empathy even exist in non-white countries? Whenever I play Japanese stuff I always feel like it was written by aliens or robots, and I haven't seen a trace of empathy in Muslim countries were hospitality is simply a way to flex on your neighbors.
>>724560694>denying woke existed before 2015,Bro woke started in the 60s.
>>724566698Japanese people are clearly not Chinese though?
>>724556317>accurately be fit for BretonsBretons are just snooty Frenchmen.
>>724567936Yayoi propaganda
>>724556317Didn't that Kirk dude constantly reference "panther" shit when talking about them. They are obviously everything you assume.
>>724566920>Argonian religion isn't Buddhist/Taoist in the slightest. Where the fuck did you even get that idea from?I made it up
>>724557232Liberals are unintentionally so fucking racist.>no I will not play as a Redguard, it's only for blacksLike holy shit how do you not see the irony here?
>>724567193Funny guy. I know you're being ironic but the statement is correct regardless.
>>724568120cool so we'll hook up with some "underground" bretons and bomb those fascist thalmor. it'll be like the 70s again.
>>724567936Thats mostly a rounding error, they are close enough to count
>>724564406one of my favorite builds ever is albino redguard
>>724556787Culturally Redguards are spun off of a mix of north african and middle eastern culture. Physically they definitely stray more towards sub-saharan african, even in older games. But I think translating fantasy races (even ones meant to be typical humans) to real-world ethnicities 1:1 is often a fool's errand. Bethesda will sadly ignore that last part and still ruin them in TES VI.
>>724556925>Moors weren't black thoughMoor literally means "black person"
>>724566574They look different. Here's some clipshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHqWRtzueM4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps1KOwrP7Bohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdFgg3t66Gghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5tV7mk_U1whttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOABgCy0Fr0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqZAnvxWNFk
>>724556317>All human races in the Elder Scrolls have a culture similar to their respective real life counterpartsAh yes, The White Culture
>>724556698Oh shit I thought games weren't woke before 2020?! What's this?!?!
>>724556317The fuck "real life race" are the dunmer or atmer? What race were the dwemer and snow elves?
>>724568317Like how his "racism" steems from "cultural appropiation" while your racism comes from superiority of one race over another ie actual racism.
>>724556317>Black Africans have no rich history in being proficient swordsmen,yeah they do, they're based on the Africans who live in northern Africa but in the desert. From Sudan to Morocco there are blacks who wear turbans and/or carry swords. Even today you don't become a man until you own your first sword in some of these cultures. This documentary probably follows such people, they still live like it's 2000~ years ago.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBZNMsmNNZc
>>724557232Okay, which one of you fuckers did this fucking kek. Should have added that you'd also never play an Orc because as we all know, Orcs are like black people. Reguards and Orcs are for black only!
>>724557720this may come as a shock to you but over 30% of African blacks are muslim.
>>724557475https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxyL3Ymbwn4
>>724566481Why do conservakek jews like writing blacked fantasies?
>>724567073You are onto something since the only non-european countries where they treat animals well(Japan) have had large western cultural influencem
Oh great, it's another /pol/ cries about black people thread. Nobody else getting bored of these?
>>724577131Japan treated them well before western influence and westerners don't really treat them well, Europe has shitloads of extinct animals, more than most other places in the world if you're looking at the past few thousand years.
>>724576445They been btfo so hard by the romans, it created a genetic bottleneck where only those that are fine with their wives bearing children that are not their own survived. Why do you think they added that rule that in order for someone to be born a jew he only needs to have a jewish mother instead of a jewish father?
Orcs are the we wuz race of TES. Malacath says that they're beast closely related to ogres. Topal the pilot discovered orcs before Tamriel was settled by elves or humans. They just ran around naked and smashed each other's skulls before other races arrived.Nords civilized the Bretons and after centuries of living on the outskirts of civilization, orcs started their cargo cult in Wrothgar. Later on they copied the Dunmer genesis mythos verbatim and just swapped some names, like Veloth -> Trinimac, and claimed that aykshually they wuz the real elves. They suck at their LARP so badly that Malacath calls them out on this bullshit and asks adventurers of other races to slap the orcs around, knock some sense into their beast heads.
>>724566481GEG
>>724578001Except that's not the case at all you fucking retard. The infamous Trinimac myth is of Dunmeri, not orcish origin. The Dunmer are the ones who claim that the Orcs are fallen elves, not the Orcs themselves. Among the Orcs, the Trinimac myth and the idea that they're fallen elves is a fringe cult followed only by "city orcs" under heavy influence from the other races that's looked down upon by traditional orcish society.We also know as a matter of objective fact that it's true. Orcs have the same torso model as other Mer in Morrowind, and in Skyrim, Orc blood is needed to open the one dwemer mcguffin in that one Dawnguard quest together with the other types of Mer blood.
>>724556317All races are an amalgamation of cultures>Imperials are romans but they also have medieval knightly orders>Nords are viking mixed with tibetans>Bretons are french with a bit of anglo culture>Redguards are black moors mixed with caribbean pirates.
>>724556317>Black Africans have no rich history in being piratesSomalians beg to differ.
I hate that tourists and grifters would try to claim tes6 is woke because muh blacks
>>724579270>The infamous Trinimac myth is of Dunmeri, not orcish origin.Based on what, those books being made first available in Morrowind? They were available in Vivec's forbidden library and from booksellers who had stuff from all over the world in stock. Not a single NPC acknowledges their contents, Dunmer being the authors is your headcanon or something you took straight from ESO fanfics.>Orcs have the same torso model as other Mer in MorrowindThat's about the most retarded argument I've read in this shithole yet.>in Skyrim, Orc blood is needed to open the one dwemer mcguffin in that one Dawnguard quest together with the other types of Mer blood.You absolute retard. This is not a DLC quest, it's Herma Mora's daedric quest. Orc blood is not needed any more than actual elf blood. The whole quest is about Mora deliberately leading Signus to the box and refusing to tell him what's inside or how to open it just to drive him utterly insane and expose how little Signus actually knew. Signus THINKS that the mix of blood can substitute for Dwemer blood and sends the dragonborn on a largely pointless errand. Mora is impressed and decides it's time to discard Signus. Mora controlled the lockbox and its contents all along, he is the one who opens it.
>>724568317horseshoe theory
>>724580647This was done for a very specific reason, dumb nigger
>>724581263You want some more? Wuuthrad doesn't deal any bonus damage to orcs. The furry Arthmoor changed it in his patch to elevate his fetishized green apes to the status of elves.
>>724581589literally the entirety of the elder scrolls lore community have held orsimer to be elves for the past 20 years buddy, you're the one going against the current here, trying to pin it on arthmoor's eccentricities is rather silly to say the leastby the way so have bethesda, i can tell you don't have a high opinion on ESO, but the trinimac-boethiah story is also treated as a factual thing that actually happened by malacath himself in the umbriel novels, and kirkbride has likewise never talked about it in a way that would suggest it is anything but the truth
>>724582205TES "community" is a bunch of self-hating whiteoid schizos who fetishize the beast races for the same reason that Kirkbride wanked to Black Panthers and made Cyrus. It's a group delusion reinforced by 20 years of repeating bullshit and indoctrinating people who either didn't play those games or blasted through them without paying attention to anything.Malacath being a cursed version of Trinimac is one thing. An entire race of elves suddenly transforming into oversized goblins is the bullshit part for which there's zero evidence and some evidence to the contrary, including Malacath's quests. Orcs existed before elves even came to Tamriel and they probably picked up the Malacath worship somewhere along the way IF Malacath really is Trinimac and not a much older daedric prince that existed long before Trinimac.
>>724574164>>724573628Posts with the least replies often speak the most truth in these threads lol. There's the facts for all to ignore.
