What is your favorite race?
I think all the races are pretty standard "medieval fantasy" characters. And I think I would like them all a bit more if the character creation was a bit more refined.
Either way, I'm not a big medieval fantasy person, so I'd prefer characters that look more "kawaii". But that's just me. Give me a japanese elf over a western elf any day.
The ideas aren't bad though. Like, I like that they put reptile and cat creatures in; though I just woulda liked them to look less "real" I suppose.
Personally though, I chose dunmer. I don't really like standard humans in any game; humans are just so plain. And like I said, the cat and reptile races here are not my cup 'o milk, so I choose dunmer.

That was because i said the jewish looked funny/dumb with their small hats.
Now i'm being called a racist for not liking a dark kind of human in a game.
Why are you calling me a racist?

I have viking heritage as well. Not that strange though, that we Scandinavians do I mean.WolfGang IceEye wrote:Will heres a little bit of info on me i can actuly trace my hertigage derictaly to a viking cheiften on the southern tip of scandiniva cool huh?
BTW Nords best race ever

Morrowind hooked me on dark elves. They are dark and intriguing. They always seem to be mixed up in trouble, and always seem to find a way out. Out of the races in Tamriel, I think they are the most unique as well.
wood elves and high elves have been present in fantasy forever, as have orcs. Khajit are basically thundercats, and "cat-people" have existed in fiction for quite some time as well. Argonians are fairly original, though they are much like liazrd folk from Dungeons and Dragons and other such games.
You could argue that they resemble the Drow of the Forgotten Realms, though a closer look displays few similarities in both appearance and culture.

It is spelled "Khajiit"
Somone posted on the forums that it's so hard to pronounce, unless you have played for 100 hours or more.
I figured out how to pronounce it, the first time i played.

1. Dunmer
- Morrowind got me hooked on them
2. Breton
- My favorite Min/Max race
3. Argonians and Khajiit
- they both look awesome, but Khajiit might be higher up because my first charater was a khajiit
4. Orcs
- my first WoW character was an orc and I like their lore
5. Redguards
- great racials for melee classes
6. Nord
- see Redguards and gotta love feeling like a viking
7. Imperials
- I don't hate them, but I don't like them either
8. Bosmer
- hate them and I have yet to find out why, too sneaky and short maybe
9. Altmer
- as a race too arrogant and bad racial drawbacks, but I love taking down a peg or two
