So Im not one of those folks that makes a character and just can keep making new ones, I like to have a main person. So I've been having the hardest time choosing which side.
Facts that come into play, that will be presented on a 'Pro' that side way.
Pro Empire-
1. The Stormcloaks are jerks and all their towns look pretty messed up.
2. The Empire's towns look actually pretty peaceful and happy.
3. The Imperials armor rocks.
4. Its like what its said in the game, if the Stormcloaks didn't make such a fuss about Talos worship the Empire wouldn't have had to crack down on them.
5. The Empire is looking after the whole of the world/Tamriel/Empire. Cause if the Thalmor get in they'll certainly be more ruthless aggressors and come after Skyrim, the Empire is just trying to stall to get more men to take back control.
6. As much as the Empire is allowing the Thalmor free reign in the Empire, in the main quest line (The Thalmor Embassy Party mission) you can find 'Notes on Ulfric Stormcloak' (or something like that) that says the Stormcloaks also were dealing with the Thalmor.
Pro Stormcloak-
1. No fear about being dragged off in the middle of the night *shudders*
2. Freedom for Nords.
I actually have to do some more studying on the Stormcloak side so feel free to toss some ideas in Pro - Your choice. Anyways, I really just most of all also want the side that has the bigger battles in their quest lines.
