I'm probably never going to create and lvl an orc, nord, redguard or wood elf. All other races I plan on having and lvling them to max lvl.

    I haven't played an orc since Morrowind. Unless they revise the additional character slots limit, I'll probably never get around to an Argonian either.

    Altmer, or any Elf for that matter. Or redguard. Or pretty much anything that doesnt have a furry tail.

    I MAY sometime make a Nord though, cause I'm Norse by heritage.

    If it's not Khajiit or Argonian I'm not playing it. I have a bias, yes.

    So this would be a bad time to point out that Bretons are half-elven?

    I can play all the races, but I am neither interested into a templar nor dragonknight. And I am not that happy with sorceress either, so basically it boils down to NB, which is my preferred class. Not because it would be strong, but because I just feel that gameplay is right for me. Maybe I will get used to sorceress over time, but I feel that I get more and more reluctant to play these 2 characters, which are sorceresses.

    DK will probably be the last class I play.

    Imperials are fun. I've only got 3 of them, though.

    On a serious note, I doubt I'll ever play a Breton, Nord or Imperial just because the last thing I want to be when I escape real life is a human.

    I have not played a Beast Race yet in this game. I have in previous TES games, just not this one yet.

    If the character slot prices are reasonable, there will be some Khajiits on my roster.

    So, to answer your question, its more there are races I have not been able play yet.

    I tend to not play as a beast race, I prefer to stick to either an elf or human. I don't even notice, I just come up with an idea for a character and roll with it. They never end up being Khajiit, Argonian or Orc for some reason for as far back as Morrowind. Maybe I'll roll one as my next character.

    I will probably never use:

    Orc - for stam classes I usually go for imperial or reguard
    Nord - why would I?
    Argonian - again why?
    Breton - When I actually use a magic class I always go high elf (better racial passives and gotta support the dominion)


    I have leveled a character at least to vet 1 with every other race

    any race that isn't part of the AD or an imperial. I don't want to be any other faction than AD nor do I want to buy the adventurer pack just to play another race in AD.

    other than that id play any

    I cannot ever see myself creating a Nord, Breton, Argonian, Khajiit or high Elf. I did have a High elf Sorceress, but I hated her for some reason, and ended up deleting her.

    My Favourite races are Dark Elf and Wood Elf.

    I don't think I'll ever play an Orc or a Nord honestly, they've just never appealed to me.

    Then there are the Bretons, who I can't decide if I like or not - I just think that since Altmer are my favourite race and the most talented spell-casters, I'll find Breton magic passives to be underwhelming. I have considered making one before though, so I can't really say I could never see myself playing one.

    While those guys may have unique perspectives when it comes to accessorizing, they have not literally been transformed by the feces of a Daedric Prince. Orcs aren't gross because they're ugly, they're gross because they are descended from extradimensional poop.

    Actually different cultures do and have done this - to either refer to themselves or others in 3rd person, even if they are directly speaking to this person or about themselves. Japan is one such example, where this is considered to be more polite. An example in history would be Julius Caesar.

    Hm... An Argonian for sure. I just don't like them. They're weird, in my opinion. And not to mention, I can't really see any benefits to using them from a racial passive point-of-view either. So yep. Definitely Argonian.
