Kind of shows the dramatic cultural shift in a few millennia that we find it horrifying now.
Even stranger is that in the Elder Scrolls, those same guys are considered to be better than the Stormcloaks.
(Only slightly because the Stormcloaks are racist, but still.)

Bethesda is really good at separating factions into "goody two shoes guys" and "completely horrible evil guys". There are some inbetweens sometimes but you can count on those two, always.

skyrim at least forced you to kinda think about it
i mean NOW we all know the stormcloaks are the worst
but when the game came out everyone hated the empire because nobody had really delved into it yet

I hated the Stormcloaks because why the fuck would you run up, challenge, and then scream the King to death.

actually for the nords that was an entirely okay thing for him to do, because it was a formal challenge
the stupid part of it is that the high king was really just waiting for ulfric to talk to him, and probably would have taken his side and led a completely unified skyrim against the thalmor
ulfric is just a fucking idiot

They're both giant dicks. Stormcloaks have good reason to be mad at the Empire, but at the same time Skyrim and the Empire had to be united to withstand the Thalmor, which is why I went Imperial.

Hey, did you know you can go neutral and have those old men on the mountain who teach shouts solve the entire ordeal and have both factions focused on killing dragons?

Also I wanted to beat Uldric's face in for equivalent exchange since I kind of killed the Emperor already.
No one gets their leaders because both factions are assholes. Hurray compromises!
