Bethesda are most likely building uo to another war with the Dominion, and the player will obviously at east be encouraged to fight for the Empire. I mean, who likes the Altmer? I supported the Empire and joined the Legion, but it does not prevent me to dislike some of its practices. Just look at the premises of the game, you're at the wrong place at the wrong time, and you're sentenced to death just because people think you're a rebel. Tulius creates a martyr out of Ulfric by denying him a proper Nord burial, instead he wants his body sent to Cyrodiil to have his head mounted on a spike at the imperial castle... Not a way to make peace if you ask (Legate Rikke got it all right by the way). I still believe Skyrim is better with the Empire, but it doesn't prevent me to think there were many ugly things in that inserruction. I'm sad at every stormcloak I killed - a civil war is alway a matter of brothers killing brothers.

You're right. As ugly as it is, the Empire is the lesser of two evils.
