I think that I’ve only started the questline only a few times, and only for the empire, I think. I’m not even sure if I’ve finished it or ever met Ulfric.
Is the questline good? I fear that it’s too main questy, and Bethesda can’t write a good main quest to save their lives.
To be fair he’s gagged and and apparently in the middle of silent tantrum so he’s not very communicative in this scene, though even later when he’s back on his throne and even during Stormcloak questline he’s not very memorable too, you mostly talk with Galmar Stonefist who is more expressive. I guess it’s explained officially by him being apprentice to Greybeards and wielding some degree of Thu’um, you just don’t flap your gums carelessly when you can demolish everything around you accidentally.
Don’t the greybeards still have quite a bit of dialogue? Also, both the player & Miraak are quite talkative, from what I rember, though it makes sense why the latter wouldn’t care much about collateral damage.
I think that Bethesda should just stop shipping main quests with their 1st party games. I think that there are even mods to disable them, which should be somewhat telling about players’ opinions.
I believe I’ve been to Ulfric’s throne room few times, but can’t remember why, probably some sidequests take you there as well? I do think I’ve done the war-quest but for the life of me I can’t recall which side I was on, or if it was good/bad/meh.
Usually in this kind of games I tend to do few runs to see each side of mutually exclusive paths, but… well, it’s been a while, like a decade according to steam.

He sits with you on the cart at the beginning.
I think that says a lot about how memorable he is.

Skyrim SE (the remake) is just about a decade old. Mods have progressed a lot if you want to give it a try.
