   @RehnSturm256 To grow your own food, to build your own house, you craft your cloths and furniture... These all seems like wonderful things to me xD
   
   By comparison, I see very little value, or enjoyment to be had in the paradigm of hyper specialization.
   
   And more fundamentally, there is no reason why you can't learn, and master all of these things yourself.
   
   What I am finding again, and again, is that, everything is actually easy and simple, but every one wants to teach you lies about it, and present huge, costly barriers to entry.
   
   My current projects, and are essentially green field projects, because the grandparents all died without passing anything on to the next generation.
   
   But, it is obvious, that, a homestead and home library, could be brought to an easy to self sustain, easy to pass on level, within 1 generation.
   
   However, it requires recognizing that the modern approaches, the things taught in colleges and universities, are mostly error. If you only stick to the main stream, even 200 years probably wouldn't be enough to build up a robust homestead.

     @hazlin yeah! I actually hated that about Windhelm: all the non-Nords as a serf class. In my irl worldview, i believe a People should have the will and strength to run their own town and country. Which means the hard jobs, too. For even the hardest job becomes a blessed duty if it’s in service to your own People. Your work and upkeep of the city because a foundation for your generations to come. :anko_pray:

     Imo, A racially distinct serf class has never boded well in Western countries irl - America especially, whether in modern times or back in the 1800s. It makes a People weak and stagnant in innovation, revolution or political whiplash are practically guaranteed, or synergy and racial dissolution through miscegenation occurs. The Nords in Windhelm come off more arrogant, rather than proud or hardy :akko_science:

     @RehnSturm256 I don't feel like the storm cloaks represent the former. Their city is an alien infested murder zone.
     
     In general, both sides seemed to promise ruin to Skyrim.
     
     I don't believe in false choices, if I must be against the world, then I will be against the world.
     
     And so, in my many play throughs, I simply do not join either side.
     
     What is that game?... starts with an E... Elex! In that game, I hated all the sides so much, that I attempted to play without joining any of them. But, the game has everything locked behind faction quests. So, I just stopped playing xD
     
     One of my favorite things about Skyrim, is, it doesn't FORCE you to choose a side.

     @hazlin then I wonder on a personal note: what do you like more? Preserving Man’s homeland and God? Or his empire, his people unified? :a2bthinking: hypothetically

     @RehnSturm256 I intensely dislike both of them
