Another bit of lore that agitates me. Part of the Dragonborn DLC.

First of all, let me just say I loved the Main Quest of Skyrim, with how we endure so much, from infiltrating the Thalmor Embassy to learn about the motive behind the Dragon uprising, to exploring the depths of the Riften sewers to rescue the Blades Lore Master, to discovering Alduins Wall at Sky Haven Temple, then flying to Skuldafn and finally destroying Alduin in Sovngarde alongside 3 Nordic heroes from the past.

Now here's what bugs me. During your final battle with Miraak, (If you defeat Alduin prior to this), Miraak will say something along the lines of "The heroes, Felldir, Hakon, wanted to use me to defeat Alduin. But I had other plans".

Seriously? They are heroes, not beggars. They didn't need a Dragonborn to banish Alduin from the world, during their time. It's bad enough the devs pulled Miraak out of their behinds just so they could make a new DLC for Skyrim. It's bad enough his existence contradicts the chronological order of the list of Dragonborn throughout the era. Now they got the 3 heroes sucking up to Miraak, which is entirely out of character.
