Board Thread:Lore Discussion/@comment-4705438-20140201123109

This thread is a continuation of a discussion, that happened here and at some point has happened in many other places.

This is a topic, that has caused many disruptions of the Lore Board, so, please, keep it civil and keep it here.

Should Michael Kirkbride and other lore writer out-of-game content be considered canon? Why not?

Are the in-game books and dialogues always a reliable source of lore, as they may be flawed, just like they often are in reality? Or would this just give Bethesda an easy excuse after changing it?

Let the wildest hypothesis be written here.

Discuss. But, please, keep it on topic this time and, please, keep the discussion civil: without unneeded personal attacks.
