    Technically, I only play Khajiits, but I'm not entirely opposed to other races... If I manage to get one good Khajiit in each alliance, I'll make an alt in another race. Maybe.

    Nords would probably be the least likely one I'd create since all my friends created Nords. Skyrim.

    There are a few races I haven't played yet. It's more because I haven't gotten around to it yet than anything else.

    If you just count ESO I haven't played Nords, Redguards, Imperials, Bretons, Argonians, Orcs or Khajiit

    If you count all ES games I haven't played Redguards, Imperials, Argonians, Orcs or Khajiit

    It was hard to choose between Altmer and Orcs.

    They're both so unappealing to me. I would play any race comfortably except those two.

    I almost always either play as either a Breton or an Argonian because those are my favorite races. <3 Between the last four TES games I have created characters from the other races to experiment with, but the one race I will NEVER bother to play is the Nords.

    They are so bland, boring, and their culture holds zero interest for me. :P

    Argonian. I just can't come up with a good concept for one in this game. Nor do I really like the look of their armors. I know that I can just read a motif and make them different armor, but I hate creating something knowing that I'm just going to make them look like something else anyways.

    Don't forget, they're really ugly! And I hate the way they talk.

    I viewed all the awesome lore videos produced by ShoddyCast (on Youtube) and the Khajiit are so ridiculous, random, senseless in comparison to all the other cool national stories/history. Even Argonians are less random in form and content (in fact I find the tribal spiritual twist of Argonians quite cool).

    Altmer. Snobby and usually incompetent. Don't care for Argonians much either, but my Dunmer says they make good slaves >:)

    EDIT: Orcs are aweome. The whole story of Trinimac, Boethiah, and Malacath is great. I am usually the guy on the outside, so maybe I identify with them.

    Altmer are the ugliest, gangliest race in the elder scrolls universe. glad to see someone use a Dave Chappelle joke to describe what everyone wants to say to those racist losers. not only do they gang up on members of other races and beat them to death, but they keep some of them alive to torture them some more. Anyone who played skyrim and felt compassion for the altmer are either psychopaths, or lagging in RL.

    as I like to say, this is my opinion, and I am certain others will disagree for various RP reasons.
