What ESO race do you NEVER play—and why not?

Pele

I don't play any race that is not Altmer because I am an elitist, haughty, racist ***.

Would make a brilliant signature.

Argonian

Bosmer master race!!!!!!!!!!! And not all Bosmer are "tree huggers", apparently you didn't pay too much attention to their complete storylines.

Please note: everyone who voted Bosmer, please sprinkle some garlic powder, salt, and pepper on yourselves and form a line in a single file order. TYVM

Look, a tree! Hug and cuddle with it my little friend!

The saxhleel have noted all of your insolence and your names have been given to the shadow scale in the name of Sithis.

I do think its strange that Iksar were always the most popular race in EQ and Argonians are the least popular race in ESO. I love both for sure.


Also Altmer are pure supremacist trash

Just nope.

Argonian

I love all races as NPCs, but I've difficulties to identify myself with an argonian for some reasons. So Argonians would probably be my least choice.

Dudis

Don't like they way they look and talk.

Sayyyyy, I've seen one of your Argonians hanging around in a bank! I distinctly remember seeing an Argonian in a bank named Holds-Many-Objects and chuckling about the name.

Orcs because they look stupid in ESO. Other games they have been fun but not here.

I'm curious, do you mean you like them in other Elder Scrolls games, but not ESO, or do you mean you like them in other non-Elder Scrolls games, but not in Elder Scrolls? To me the latter would make more sense than the former, as orcs in Elder Scrolls are pretty damn different from orcs in WoW or LOTR or D&D.

I voted khajit... I really love khajits in skyrim, I have them as my main chars, but here.. It just looks terrible.

Edit edit, I'd also probably pick Altmer like everyone else, they're so over the top.

Funny, because I find them slightly better here.

Skyrim tails were waaaaaaaay too stiff.

I hate Bretons. After Breton its Imperial. Pompous jackarses, all of them.

I have races I dont really play but dont hate. Orcs, Argonians, Redguard.

Mostly Nord and Dunmer with a splash of Khajiit usually.

Altmer are just racist. More racist than Nords.

And also Imperials. If I wanted to play at being human I could... you know... go outside or something :P

Legitimate reason. I dont play humans in most games. All my characters in wow are nonhuman. Same with EQ2 except 2, berserker(rp) and inquis(started on free account, was race limited). Pathfinder, half elf was last and current is teifling.

As many times as I have tried to make an Argonian character... just doesn't work for me. I couldn't tell you if its the looks, or what either.

Honestly, I might like them more if they were a little 'less' human looking. If they looked more like smaller Daedroths or a bit more reptilian body styles.

The other issue, which is a problem in nearly all ES games lately, is there is no significant reaction to your race. I would play Khajit and Argonians MUCH more if the NPCs treated them more harshly. Love to play the underdog... but theres just none of that in ES games anymore.

I have a ranger in eq2 thats a male Sarnak.

They were created by crossing Iksar(humanoid lizards) with dragons, as slaves.

The males look awesome.

because the females look ridiculous with those teeth jutting out. the orc males look pretty good tho, but who wants to play as a stinky dude?

Iksar were brutish slaver jerks and one of the monk races.

In EQ2 I didnt see nearly as many of them. Plenty of Dal races and kerra.

Vah'Shir were a popular one and as a result I saw a lot of kerra.

Kerra

@Sakiri hey dude, you realise those screenshots are from Morrowind or Daggerfall yes?


Here is my Khajiit.


If you call him ugly, let me know to come and explain it to you at Cyrodiil.

Certainly one of the nicer ones I've seen, in all honesty. He has a rather more natural look to him than a lot of the NPCs.

Thank you

All of my Khajiits have natural looks, one more is looking exactly the same as him also (the DK). (took me hours to make him look the same).

I don't know what those screenshots are from, but they aren't from Morrowind and definitely not from Daggerfall.

I've not one called them ugly, I think you've got me confused with someone else.

And I've yet to see screenshots from Morrowind or Daggerfall in this thread. Mine are from EverQuest 2.

And I'm not a fan of the lion Khajiit, I preferred tigers, which is what all of mine in Skyrim looked like.

Only thing I complained about was the stiff as nails tail in Skyrim.

Get off my junk.

Mine are definitely not from any TES game.

Someone mentioned races in EQ2, I mentioned Sarnak in relation to Iksar, someone else mentioned Kerra looking good, and as a result, I dug through my EQ2 screenshots and linked them.
