>holds the designated title of World Eater
>is not once shown eating a single world during the entirety of the games story
I need some explanation here.
>>
>>738057138
he tried his best
his mouth is extremely tiny compared to the size of the world so it was taking him a very long time to eat it all
>>
gecko boy didn't do much in the story in general he torched one shithole, resurrected some literally who dragon and then he fucked off
>>
>>738057302
Wouldnt change a thing. Even if he would manage to eat his big words in this tiny world in truth the same would just continue.
>>
>>738057138
because he wasn't trying to eat the world, he was trying to rule it
that's why akatosh sent you to kick his ass and send him to his room until he was ready to behave
>>
>>738057138
it's an allegory for entropy you n'wah
>>
>>738057138
Because he decided ruling over the world with his power would be more fun than eating it.
>>
>>738057138
The entire problem is that he isn't eating the world and is instead trying to rule it. By defeating him you send him back to be reborn and actually do his job next time.
>>
>>738057413
Something is very wrong with the present kalpa.

>send him back to be reborn and actually do his job next time
I don't remember that part I thought we were just kicking the can further down the road again and hoping that it works unlike last time.
>>

Engine limitation
>>
>>738057646
Alduin knows what his role is. I think he's tired of it too, considering the kalpa was meant to end literal ages ago.

Skyrim is just one lengthy Snickers commercial.

>>738057646
Paarthurnax references him abandoning his duty
>Alduin had flown far from the path of right action in his pahlok- the arrogance of his power.
>His doom was written when he claimed for himself the lordship that properly belongs to Bormahu - our father Akatosh.
And the whole Dragon Cult stuff proves that he spent an era just sitting around letting Nords worship him for no particular reason other than ego

Bitch ain't got no legs.
Ain't even. got. legs.
How's it feel Seath? To be a bitcchhh

It's not a literal world he's eating, but the metaphysical world so that it can be remade again and he can complete his purpose. Dragonborn just delays it, he'll be back later to do his job as intended and not try to rule the world as a dragon dictator.
>>
>>738059541
He won't be back, this Kalpa will last forever
>>
He's meant to eat the world during the End Times, but the events in Skyrim is not actually the End Times so you just zap him to the void where he can hang out with his father until the real end of time.

Imagine being an englishman watching England lose in football time and time again knowing that youll be doing this eternally just waiting for a white man to go black in a swamp so he can save you from this agony

what
>>
>>738057519
I like the present kalpa
Fuck the haters, if you don't like it just kill yourself
>>
>>738057138
What happens to all the people he does eat in game? Does he have a stomach? A digestive tract?
>>
>>738057413
>Akatosh sent Obviously-Lorkhan to kill Alduin
Why
>>
>>738062456
Akatosh sent the dragonborn to kill Alduin to have his soul back and eventually end the kalpa
Lorkhan outplayed Akatosh by making the dragonborn his shezarrine, then prepared a trap for Alduin in sovngarde: his soul is now trapped there and can't return to Akatosh, meaning Akatosh doesn't have his world ender anymore

We get an idea about it when we learn from Tsun that Shor (Lorkhan) told them not to interfere and let Alduin stay in Sovngarde until (you) came along.
It was all part of his keikaku

how bad will it be bros?
>>
>>738062756
Even Skyrim fails to properly use the cool lore.
But yeah, it can always get worse, and it will

>Morrowind is basically a different planet
>Oblivion is hell and at least somewhat creative with its demons
>Skyrim is just fantasy Scandinavia
Where are my cool north and eastern european cryptids? It's just Baba Yaga and Draugr.
>>
>>738062930
where are the skywhales todd?
>>
>>738062756
Given that Emil was the project lead on Fallout 3/4, the answer should be obvious
>>
>>738062930
why would Skyrim have any eastern european elements
>>
>>738057413
No, he is literally trying to eat the world.
>>
>>738063590
No reason in particular beyond "where else would you put them", and the fact that they already have the baba yaga in the form of hagravens
>>
>>738063657
if he wanted to eat the world he would have done it
