EP loyalty

so as many of you know the Ebonheart Pact seems to be the trending faction on many sites, but i wonder.. if there isnt a dragon born class for all you nords out there, will you stick with that choice? i realize many here have been playing TES for a long time, but skyrim brought in a new wave of fans and im curious if many pick nord in hopes to see a dragon born class, or because nords were the main protagonists of skyrim, or simply because they are a brawny race of man and youve played one all throughout the series? and if those would stay true to the EP if there isnt a dragon born class and switch to a different race?

If people are rolling nords to fus ro dah someone off a cliff in TESO, they're gonna have a bad time. That being said, most people tend to favor human classes. When we get closer to launch I anticipate swelling in the Breton race numbers (humans that like to cast fireballs).

I don't want to be a Dragonborn. I want to be a Nord, plain and simple.

It's just my own tought but... That won't happen for sure. Dragonborn is one choose fella (just ONE) per generation. If would be one on TESO I'm pretty sure he/she is a NPC and it's perfect that way.

Besides, just to explain it better to Onsi, Dragonborn isn't a "Class" it is more to "race" like some templates of Dungeons&Dragons - Like Half-Dragons or Shadowmeres.

The dragon born of the time is Tiber Septim! Come on! You can't play any elder scrolls game for more than a day without knowing that!

I'm pretty sure that the fact he is using an Assassin's Creed Custom Mod for Nightingale Suit makes him an casual player and not a lore reader.

are you out of your mind? i dont like the nords cause of the "dragonborn" seriously you are just one of the crowd thats shouting OH YOU JUST JOIN EP CAUSE OF SKYRIM.

to wich i respond: play morrowind and then talk to me again.

But... But... he's on the bloody currency! Septims! He's on the loading screens and box arts! You'd have to play it blind folded and deaf! But I guess some people just don't pay attention to detail... I'm going to go read something, excuse me.

On WoW there are people lvl 85 that don't know what Agro is or even where are the entrances of the dungeons. That's called casual-rush player - And there are several since "gaming" become something pop.

I'm playing Eden Eternal with some friends and there are people lvl 40 that don't know how to see/read a buff/debuff on interface. So there are map bosses with a buff "When someone hit's it heals itself for 5k hp"... Those bosses exists since lvl 1 and stills there are people who keep hiting it for 1 hour straight (I'm not kidding) wasting potions - They could just wait the 5 seconds buff to clear out, if they would read it -... So you can be amazed by the game comunity these days.

Tiber Septim doesn't appear until the end of the Interregnum, several centuries after the events of TESO. As such, the gold coins in TESO will not be called "septims." I do wonder what they'll be called.

Yes, but he's still alive, and therefore still in existence as a dragonborn, um Remans?

You are right but I guess this trend is not about it - so avoid off-topics.

i have played morrowind all the way to skyrim, my question stemmed from the fact i see many people posting about dragon borns in forums and i was curious to know if they would remain nord if that isnt implemented. im positive dragon borns wont be playable in TESO as it doesnt fit in with the time span it occurs and would be downright OP. its funny how quick everyone becomes so hostile to a simple question.. but on reflection people talking about being dragon born may be a joke or part of some RP thing they got for their characters. i admit im no lore fanatic and dont RP, but dont insult my intelligence because i dont pretend to talk about things i know nothing of, i was simply posing a question out of curiosity.

Dragonborn is a template not a class. Simple.

as far as i know, nobody has ever asked for something as silly as a "dragonborn class".
But yess i will insult your intelligence if you insult mine by asking me a question such as "would you play a nord if you cant be the dragon born" sorry that is insulting to MY intelligence.

And as far as i know Hjalti early beard isnt born yet. Or very very young.
