Which is the worst Skyrim faction?
>>731149892they are all a mess and require a literal who to join and fix their shit.
>>731149892iff you mean in terms of story, the dark brother hood is really fucked up and basically the tale of a stupid woman letting her dumb woman brain ruin shit.in terms of gameplay mages guild is too short. companions is also way too short but atleast u get to be a werewolf
>>731149892Vampires are the best, they require you to be vampire and won't talk to you if you cease to be vampire lord. They also give you unique vampire buffing equipment and vampire lord skill tree. Other factions are equally worthless, you can became leader of faction despite having 0 skills.Dark Brotherhood wouldn't be that bad IF killing THE EMPEROR had any consequences, but instead killing fucking Emperor is no diferent than killing bandit leader nr 40.
>>731149892That's a really, really tough call because the faction quests were the worst aspect of Skyrim.All of them are too rushed.You don't have to be a mage to be the Archmage and you don't have to be a thief to be head of the thieves guild.At least int he companions let you beat shit up.The vampires are fine if you join the vampires. If you join the Dawnguard it's completely retarded.The Brotherhood is the best because you have to kill someone to get into it, and it has the most bombastic quest missions (killing the emperor being a highlight).
>>731149892Companions if you have any interest whatsoever in actually attempting to roleplay. Anybody that doesn't want to be a werewolf (99.999% of people living in Tamriel) is just gonna dip out once you're told that it's not optional and you have to become one. You should have had two other options:>i don't want to be part of the circle, i just wanna be a regular member>fuck you demon worshippers, i'm joining the silver handI'd argue for a lot of people actually living in the TES universe, they'd rather kill a bunch of people in the DB than become a werewolf and damn their soul. The Thieve's guild is the same way, I don't want to bind my fucking eternal soul to a literal demonic god, I just wanna steal stuff. I only put Companions as worse than the TG because you can't even take radiant quests from them once you hit that point, whereas you can just stall the TG main quest indefinitely if you're only interested in making money as a thief. Locking the fences and guild merchants behind becoming guildmaster is a shitty decision I fix with a mod.
>>731149892>companions>shadow of its former self>college of shitterhold>shadow of its former self>dark boringhood>shadow of its former self>sneed's guild>shadow of its former self>bard's college>musical faction where dungeon delving is the only thing you do >vampires>equally shit>all poorly written and involve going inside a draugr ruinKeeping this in mind, what faction had the best written plot
>>731151347>Locking the fences and guild merchants behind becoming guildmaster is a shitty decisionIt absolutely would be a shitty decision which is why it doesn't work that wayThe fences are locked behind you doing small jobs in specific holds. You can even unlock them all before doing the very first estate job if you want
>>731151551>bard's collegeI was a bit excited that there some music playing when that wandering bard gave that quest, what a fucking disappointment that was.
>>731149892Companions > Dark Brotherhood > first half of the College > Dawnguard > second half of the College > Volkihar = Thieves Guild
>>731149892Thieves Guild, anything related to Karliah and her 25 year old ""plan"" makes zero sense. Companions and Dark Brotherhood are genuinely good. Dawnguard is surprisingly the faction that makes the most sense out of the two even though the DLC was advertised with the vampires first and foremost. The College is great in theory, execution is rough due to unfortunate late development cut content.
