I dont work on games I work in the film industry depending on the project sometimes as Production Designer, sometimes as Production Assistant. I play games as a way to help me escape or as a way to help get the creative juices flowing. However, it is rather simular in the creative concepts and development. I've worked with a number of gaming companies over the years on a variety of projects. Not going to say names cause well lets face it most video game movies kinda sucked, so I try to not crow about those too much. XD

Also I never said Talos could just smite all his enemies however I did point out that he has yet to get involved. You could say the Dragonborn might be an avatar of Talos however, that is entirely left up to the player.

But my main point has consistantly been about how this is entirely a speculative topic and there is no "right or wrong" answer. One person could say Talos, another can say Sithis, and yet another can say Lorkahn, but in the end there is no diffinative correct answer. It is all up to however the player wishes to play out the game as they want. My point isn't about oversimplifing lore or even the importance that flavor text has on a game. But rather to remove some of the importance you seem to place on lore. Flavor text is flexable material used in a manner as to provide the audience with the abilty to sustain disbelief. Its one of the factors that helps to draw you in and keep you there in the make believe world provided to entertain you. But in the end it is Flavor text and thus isn't really set in stone as it were. Somethings can be sworn truths only to be discovered falsehoods later. Its a privlage writers, developers, (even producers although you pray they don't) all use to keep a story going. So again, there is no right or wrong answer to the topic, everyone is entitled to present their opinion, you may or may not agree but trying to shoot people down on an opinion based topic is just silly.

Oh and lastly I live in Los Angeles, of course I'm an asshole, you have to be to stay here its in our laws and stuff. Asshole or crazy or both. XD
