    I did feel like they went a bit light on the racism in Skyrim, too. In Morrowind, you’d get called the N-word multiple times a day.

    “Look, supporting a Nord ethnostate does not make me racist. I’m just proud of my heritage and want all the inferior races to leave Skyrim.”

    I mean, Windhelm is basically the equivalent of the Texas Secessionist Movement, so they’re just trying to make it accurate to the lore.

        Unless this mod adds the N word, t’s really not. There’s a lot of racism in the elders scrolls universes that is there for worldbuilding as opposed to thinly-veiled stereotypes of real races like in Harry Potter*. Pretty much every race has issues with the others just like they would in the real life equivalent of the time period.

        It’s not at all the same as other mods which add real world bigotry into the game

        *One could argue that Khajiits are analogous to the Romani people but it’s a stretch

    Almost 14k people triggered…

    Edit: As OP said, it’s downloads, no downvotes

        Yep. Downloads, the thumbs up is endorsements so basically one is how many people recommend it and the other is how many accounts have downloaded it.

        Ah, you may indeed be right.
