>>738989360It's okay when humans do it.
He only became a god after Daggerfall which implies that the Underking breaking the Mantella allowed his and Tiber Septim's souls to become Talos. Talos' aspect in Morrowind basically tells you the Empire deserves to fall and new rulers should start a new age in their own vision rather than keeping his Empire alive at all costs.
>>738989360wtf, constantine the great is in elder scrolls?
>>738989360 It's understandable that Altmer Dominion chimped out after shit he pulled, especially because AD was isolationist in those days. His imperialism basically spawned their reactionary one.
>>738989360>god of mankind>acts like a normal human...your point, OP?
>>738989680Trying to force Talos to stop existing by making every man on Nirn too afraid to worship him seems like a idea that is doomed to fail though. It would be more interesting if the Aldmeri Dominion was seeking to rewrite the Elder Scrolls so that Talos never existed and the "Warp in the West" results in Altmer dominance in High Rock, but they want to do this the hardest way possible that will cause the most people to hate elves.
>>738989360He was killing Elves and Dragons, so that makes it ok.
>>738989360>mass murderer, war criminal,nigga doesn't understand modern white man's peace is an exception to most of the history where mass murdering was literally the only reasonable option
Killing your enemies isn't bad, sorryA 'war criminal' is just a hero that lost the warRapist is irrelevant, it's a flaw added to a character whose deeds are still important
>>738989834Well, it's sort of reactionary imperialism built on hatred, so you can understand it not being wholly logical, rational. Also, it's just a vidya story.
Tiber Septim attempted to reform the Alessian Order's religion before he died. If you didn't know, that tells of a single One god (likely the same as Akatosh) that created everything and all other gods and dimensions rather than a group of eight Divines. In particular, the prophet Marukh claimed this One god was tainted by elves and needed to have all ita elven elements purged from existence; which resulted in a thousand-year Dragonbreak.ESO added in a LOT of content based around this religious movement and Marukh, making me believe that Bethesda really wants to tie this into the next TES installment. Maybe we will even meet some Imga monkey-men.
What makes it funnier is hes a Breton. The entire world got subdued by the machinations of a muttoid.
