Re: What is your favorite Elder Scrolls Race
I know I know but I noticed all the other ones where for a certain game in which the vote could be biased depending on where the game takes place in this one its just your favorite race in general not your favorite race in Morrowind etc thats the only reason I made this because I felt the other ones where biased such as the other one that has a similar title is actually for just Morrowind so yeah...Vendetta wrote:How many times has this thread been re-created?

Re: What is your favorite Elder Scrolls Race
Dunmer are my favorite race, although Khajiits come close.
Dunmer because they have an interesting backstory, awesome and unique looks, and generally they suit my style (stealth) better, but are also good at combat and magic. The only thing I don't like about them and their culture is slavery and xenophobia.

Re: What is your favorite Elder Scrolls Race
I like Bretons, but looks like they will be powered down in Skyrim from magic resistance to just shock resistance.

Re: What is your favorite Elder Scrolls Race
I am torn between the Nords and the Dunmer.
Ok, I'll go with Nords for the sake of Skyrim.
No wait, Dunmer for the awesome Morrowind nostalgia.
No, Nords are more awesome.
But then again.. the Dark Elves are quite awesome too..
Nords use battleaxes!
Dunmer are battlemages!

Of course, Oblivion doesn't have that awesome voice. It sounds like absolute crud. In Morrowind, however, the voice sounds raspy and deep. Awesome.

Re: What is your favorite Elder Scrolls Race
Maybe because they have been overpowered in the past?whoman69 wrote:I like Bretons, but looks like they will be powered down in Skyrim from magic resistance to just shock resistance.
Anyway, I took this one on predominatley Lore standpoint, with the combine playability of Morrowind and Oblivion, with a small influence from Daggerfall and Arena, and I have to say the Dunmer are my favourite of these races, followed closely by the Altmer.
They have such a well established culture, and it's one that I honestly and simply, enjoy. I'm finding it difficult to put it into words at the minute (I'm pretty exhausted right now).

Wood Elf, myself... Though I don't like the look in Skyrim. I might go with a Breton instead.

Re: What is your favorite Elder Scrolls Race
Altmer followed closely by Bretons, I love the lore of both races especially where their histories come together in the Direnni hegemony. pax et bonum
