Under who’s authority does a Monastic group of wizards have over a campus that is outside their jurisdiction? What’s the game to appoint some random bloke who may not even know anything beyond flames and healing allowed to be the principle of a teaching institute?

someone having a stroke while writing the college questline is the only explanation i can think of as to why it's so bad

But you're the dergenbern...

Wasn’t there supposed to be cut content, where you travel back in time, and was the reason of the Great Collapse?

>doing the azura's star quest
>have to speak to some bitch at the college
>she is outside so I never even have to enter the damn building
>now every guard around skyrim tells me how cool I am for being in the college
bravo todd

The Elf that stays at the Inn is a guy.

Yeah, I forgot. You still need to ask about him at the college if you'd be playing blind.

nigga is the FUCKING PSIJIC ORDER
the most POWERFUL group of wizards to exist
they do what they want when they damn well please

>Under who’s authority
Stop talking about anything in the Elder Scrolls like it's a bureaucracy. Outside of the royal succession people who find themselves in positions of power are put there because they're chosen, and they're usually chosen because of feats they've performed. In Skyrim in particular you're basically dragon Jesus, there's really no reason for them not to choose you. Your place in history is cemented the moment you absorb the first dragon soul, and it's very high up. Higher than 99% of anyone else in the game.

Everything is their jurisdiction. They operate on a way, way higher level than the entirety of the Mage's Guild.

the College just kind of forgot about protocol

>main quest requires you to join the college to learn about the elder scroll (unless you already know where you need to go)
why

Oblivion is a better game in every single conceivable way

and any authority figure above you got into "accidents"

Theyre the fucking Psijic order
Theyve been the most powerful mages for literal centuries of lore, even Telvani autists respect them
thats like questioning how god could appoint someone as a paladin instead of the church

why does he look like shit?
do psijics just not sleep or what

>we don't take just anyone in, cast healin' @ me
>oh you don't know it? I can sell it to you for five shekels
>wow you are a natural! welcome to the club
>achievement unlocked: you can cast a spell
What was the point of the gatekeeper?

>Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government! Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony!
>You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you!
>If I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

Bullshit you fucking nigger. Not even once you have to enter nor speak with anyone in the college. I know that Obsidian trannies are still mad but Jesus Christ this is pathetic

>You still need to ask about him at the college
No, he's at the inn. You never have to set foot in the college to get Azura's Star.

You are supposed to find an "elven mage able to turn the brightest star as black as night" in winterhold so asking about him at the college is quite a natural reaction if you are not following some guide.
But the point of the post was that you can just go past the gate keeper and after that every guard in skyrim will recognize you as the new student.

>Few will admit it, but we know the truth about the Great Collapse.
>The College is the worst thing that's ever happened to Winterhold, maybe to Skyrim.
>Those cursed mages... It's their fault Winterhold is gone
Guess he was right all along

Yeah I'm gonna call BS on that. It gives you a quest marker for Nelecar. And there's no way anyone's playing the game for the first time with quest markers off since the NPCs don't give you actual directions like in Morrowind.

That "monastic group" is the most powerful group of magic users on Nirn.
If one of them says you are now the boss of some backwater school, then that means you are the boss and no one will question it.

The marker is only added after you ask someone about him.

who the fuck is going to stop them
nobody else cares and just goes along with it because they have better things to do obviously

So why not check the inn before trying to get into the college?

That shit was beyond retarded. They can’t just let someone in who is on an important mission? They have to fucking join?
