Races not used
Are there any races that you have never used in any playthrough at all in Oblivion? I've never used the Orcs or the Altmers. I don't really like either of them.

Never played as redguard, altmer, bosmer, orc, nord or khajiit. Only played as imperial first time I ever played an ES game.

Re: Races not used
Well, I've actually only played a Dunmer and a Breton. Only reason for that is due to the limited time I had a system that could run it. In Morrowind(not sure why you only asked about Oblivion) the only two races I just can't seem to play are the Khajiit, and the Orcs.

Re: Races not used
Ha! well the strange thing is I actually think the Khajiit are awesome...as NPC's. Definitely one of the more interesting races, infact both beast races are very unique. Morrowind wouldn't be Morrowind without them.

Re: Races not used
Orcs, Altmer and Bosmer seem to be quite common races to avioid . I wonder why?

Re: Races not used
I've touched all the human races, and never indulged in the others. This includes all the elves as well as the beast races.
I am too embedded within the mystery of the human condition to even begin exploring beyond it.

Re: Races not used
I have played as an Altmer, a Bosmer, a Dunmer, an Imperial, an Argonian in Oblivion extensively. In Morrowind, I have played as an Imperial, a Dunmer and an Orc. Made a few Nords, but never played them for extended periods of time. Same with Khajiit. Never made a Redguard (dunno why) or a Breton (coz they sound like wimps.)

Re: Races not used
I've only played as Dunmer, Argonian and Khajiit. To me it really just comes down to how the races look instead of their special skills. Imperials, Nords, Bretons and Redguards look really boring anyway...

Re: Races not used
I never played any of the beast races or Orcs but I'm tempted to play an Orc in Skyrim now.
A hero can be anyone, even a man doing some as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a young boy's shoulders to let him know the world hadn't ended.
