Wow, you lot are a bunch of rebels aren't you?

  • According to the latest site poll, more almost three quarters of you either plan to side with the rebel Stormcloak faction - or at least attempt to keep playing them along, even if you are also working with the Legion.

    More than 2000 people voted, showing that the site moving to a new home has done little to slow down the high visitor numbers. And here's what you voted for:

    As you can see the most popular option was to wend your way to Windhelm. throw your lot in with the Stormcloaks, and look to rid Skyrim of the Imperial dogs once and for all.Ā 

    That was more than double the number of those of you who feel that the history and tradition of the Tamrielic Empire is still worth preserving - and will be making a beeline for Solitude so you can enlist and help to crush the rebel scum.

    Perhaps the most interesting group - and I confess that I will be one of them - are the third of the people who are going to try and string along both sides for as long as possible. I must confess that I thoroughly enjoyed doing that in Fallout New Vegas - and it was a great moment of sadness when, finally, I had to 'declare' for the NCR. Up until that point I had expended a great amount of care and time into keeping Caesar sweet...

    And a surprising number of you - about 12% - plan to stay right away from the whole Civil War entirely. I'd actually be interested to know a bit more about why those who voted for that option did so. Don't you guys feel that you'll be missing out on a huge big chunk of what Skyrim has to offer us? Just curious...

    So, there we have it. You're a bunch of rebels - although why that would surprise me I don't know, given all the shenanigans over the leaked videos getting posted on the siteĀ  Anyway, only another 10 days to go, and then you can be as rebellious as you like.... in the land of SkyrimĀ 

    What do you think of the poll result? Surprised at all?Ā

    It's all GRAY, there's no BLACK and WHITE. Each faction is as TRUE as it is UNTRUE to what they represent. Each side is riddled with personal interests. Ulfric wants to free SKYRIM, but it doesn't change the fact that he killed King Torygg in cold blood (...  more

    I chose both sides, because I want the Legion armor, but I also really dislike the Imperials, and I would enjoy siding with the Stormcloaks and destroying themĀ

    I know I am part of the growing minority that still supports the Legion. I was always supportive of them in Morrowind, they were just awesome. I'm going to be an Imperial in almost every playthrough (although the Argonians and Khajiit look awesome, I migh...  more
