When it comes to worshiping a god or goddess inSkyrim, there are quite a few to choose from, and some fans have been debating which of the Divines they like the best.Religion is something that video games touch onoccasionally as a subject, though a lot of the times it’s related to dangerous cults, such as inFar Cry 5orOutlast 2. WhileThe Elder Scrollsseries does have its cultist movements, many players see the religious aspects of the series as just another part of the lore.
That’s the good thing about a game likeSkyrim. It allows for people to experience the world in their own way. Of course, the epic fantasy RPG has been out for a long time now and a lot of fans are eagerly awaiting the next installment. However, withconcerns thatStarfieldmay be delayed again, though that hasn’t been confirmed, it might be even longer beforeThe Elder Scrolls 6makes an appearance.

In a recent post on Reddit, user Cain013 asked otherSkyrimplayers which of the Divines is their favorite. A hearty discussion has taken place and it seems evident that different people like different ones. One commenter said they prefer Stendarr, the God of Compassion, Mercy, and Justice, because they like the “f**k you energy.” A couple of others said they like Dibella, the Goddess of Beauty and Love, while user defa90 gave a lengthy description of why they are faithful to Talos, the Hero-god of Mankind. However, some have noted that Cain013 missed one of the Divines in their uploaded image. Due to an apparent oversight, Talos is not present.
There are a total ofnine Divines in theElder Scrollsfranchise, with Talos being one of the most popular. They can bestow blessings upon the protagonist depending on which altar or shrine the player worships at. Chief among the Divines is Akatosh, the Dragon God of Time, who many will remember as a name that crops up frequently inThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion.
In any case, players will have their own opinion about which Divine they prefer over others, but in general, it’s good to see people still talking aboutTES5. Whether people are discussingwhichSkyrimcity is the worstor the best or the overall game’s economy and how it stays afloat, it’s proof that there is still a dedicated community of fans who are happy to keep this 11-year-old RPG alive and well, at least until the next game comes out.
