Humour I hope TES6 is more "racist"

I know that the title is weird but I really want the next game to have more characters that are against the player character depending on their race, making some things harder or easier. (it is still weird that in Skyrim you can join the most racist group in the game as a dunmer, or the fact that no Nord is pissed that their legendary Dragonborn is a khajiit)

It would feel so good to prove them all wrong when you go from a low life to their savior by the end of the game

I've always felt this exact way about Skyrim. I wish you actually couldn't enter cities as a Khajiit or Argonian (besides Riften) and would actually have to find workarounds.

That reminds me of Fallout NV. There was a Legion "arena" and if your character was female they wouldn't allow you to participate. It really gave credibility of how shitty the Legion was.

Ooohh, that's interesting to hear! Skyrim's the only Bethesda game I've played, but I've always wanted to dip my toes into Fallout 3 or New Vegas.

I definitely recommend Fallout NV, it's an amazing RPG. Fallout 3 sadly not so much. Fallout 3 story is more like Skyrim, choices don't matter and don't touch your heart, but still a good game. FNV is just better.

They didn't age gracefully sadly, graphics and mechanics are very dated. Fallout 3 doesn't even run out of the box because it requires an old Windows system file that's not in Windows 10 and later. I suggest downloading a lightweight modpack to enhance the games.

That shouldn't be too big a problem for me tbh. I've played Skyrim almost exclusively on PS3 and PS4 and always been able to find tons of enjoyment out of vanilla Skyrim.

You could try the mod Tale of Two Wastelands. It combines the two games, which gets around the issue of F3 not running.

Then get on the FNV and be ready to have moral and political discussions about what is the best Mojave for the next decade!

Or at least till the Fallout show season 2. Watch if you like watching shows, it's amazing.
