    I like human races and Khajiits. I don't really like the eyes of the elves and I find it difficult to identify with the Argonians.

    But these are only aesthetic reasons.

    I prefer the Mer races. The lore behind the origins of the Altmer, Bosmer, and Dunmer is some of the best.

    My heart is dunmer and will always be dunmer! Of all books, movies & games i enjoyed there is only 1 thing that always touches my heart like it did on the first day and this is Morrowind. For me best game of the series, best region and deepest & most interesting race.

    Breton was my favorite race in all the games. I even use the Breton haircut in ESO. It's no the best race in all the games. I believe Imperial was the best in Skyrim, Dunmer in Oblivion, and Redguard in Morrowind. I like Breton. I would never create an Altmer over a Breton for more damage and regen. I do explore the other races in ESO. Argonian sorc, Orc medium armor DK, Bosmer nightblade.

    I fell for the Bosmer after I made my first character. He was the result of the fact that I was actually frustrated with the character creator being unable to produce the kind of character's I'm used to, so I couldn't make my usual RP characters. I ended up creating something totally new...and I have no regrets.

    Always been an Argonian in every TES game I've played. Second favourite race is a toss up between the Altmer, Dunmer and Khajiit.
    So the Dark Elves have weird alien architecture, where people live in mushroom towers and the shell of a giant crab, but the High Elves, the pinnacle of technology, the most magically advanced race in Tamriel, are still stuck in slightly pretty, fairly tall stone buildings? Not even a hint of a glass city? Are stainless glass windows really enough to claim that a city is made of glass?

    My favourite has changed many times over the past few years the more I learn about each race tbh. Jumped into Skyrim playing as a Nord. Love the land of Skyrim and the people, but must say I like Imperials the most.
    1. Imperials
    2. Orcs
    3. Nords
    4. Bretons

    Argonian
    Argonians have always been my favorite. I get to be a human in real life, why would I play one in a video game if I have the option not to? I also think their culture makes for fun character building, there's a lot to explore.

    My second favorite race are Dremora, even if they aren't playable (or mortal). I had a lot of fun playing a dremora in a modded version of Oblivion, and will probably make the character in ESO when I finally beat vMA and get the Maelstrom Baron polymorph.

    Dunmer. Always dunmer.
    I have been a dark elf fancier ever since my very first "drow encounter" back in the days of D&D roleplaying. So I always loved games with any sort of "dark elf" race... and played them in TES-II:Daggerfall... but with TES-III:Morrowind the elder scrolls dunmer became favorites of mine in their own right, through the rich history they had written for them, and the distinct flavor that game broutht to the race!

    of the playable races? Dunmer, hands down. That said, I have a fair bit of interest in the Maormer, but odds are we won't see them get fully fleshed out ever sadly.
