    Any elf. Elf weak. Orc strong.

    That's why orcs are shoe-horned to one hole in the north of the world and even that hole was won in some drunken duel.
    You should be grateful for Imperials to taking orcs to legions and so they became civilized enough to be on-par with other races.

    and remember, why?

    -is it mechanics?

    -is it appearance?
    -etc.

    Bosmer
    Bosmer!
    I dislike their lore and the NPC voices so much.
    Plus, they are overhyped on the forums due to their "cuteness" etc, which I think is nothing but cringy because a lot of pictures posted around here show female bosmer with pigtails and childish faces, and they mostly look like young, little girls. Therefor, this whole"bosmers are smol, cute and waifu-material"-hype gives me creeps everytime I read it because of the Lolita/Pedo-wibes I associate with that.

    This as well. Bosmer characters with breast-sliders to maximum combined with girly faces and the pigtail hairstyle are horrible. I can't do anything against it, and I am really, really sorry about this, but if I see it, I always picture the player behind it as a single, elderly man who also finds enjoyment of the unhealthy sort in TV shows such as "Toddlers & Tiaras" and "Here comes Honey Boo Boo" :D

    Tie between redguard orc and dunmer....

    Redguards have to many exagerated features like cant have a certain face without a head like a potato i made a rihanna look a like but sure enough the right face wrong head shape makes it impossible to get the look i wanted. Also mechanically kinda tired of them still being the absolute sustain champion for stamina.

    Orcs i wish didnt have the watermelon cranium would a head wotdh slider kill ya?Or atleast give us tusk size options short medium long etc.

    Dunmer that perma anger brow just kills it doesn't matter how soft angular young old they look like they've been trying to burn a hole in an argonian's head with a stare for 700 years without blinking.

    Altmer. Every time.

    All of the arrogance, none of the effectiveness.

    Dunmer are similarly snooty, but there is an understanding that they can, and will, feed you your own nose if you get cheeky. Altmer just prance off with their nose in a sling.

    that's funny I cannot stand dunmer, I didn't really mind them too much and knew that a lot of TES3 fanboys exist. but man after playing the morrowind expansion, I just cannot for the life of me stand them, there will never be a time or game or any kind of mechanic buff that will get me to play that race.

    high elves I don't really care for but I understand.

    I guess I have to hold my hand up as TES3 fanboy.

    That said, it is important to remember that the Vvardenfell we see in ESO:Morrowind is very different to the one we see in TES3. The Dunmeri as a people are also portrayed in a similarly different fashion.

    Dunmer are damn ugly and I really don't like their society. They are mean and false. And their cruelity to Khajiit and Argoniens ist terrible.
    But Ashlanders are ok. Their lore ist somehow cool. :)

    Dunmer are nearly followed by Bretons. Their lore is trash and they are really a boring race. But their race passives are nice.
    Their look is mainly ok on the NPCs. But many players create especially female Bretons with chubby babyface and giant botox-bomb-boobs... that looks horrifying! :s

    You are speaking like it's something bad.
    So in your opinion it's better to waste time in MMORPG while being 24-25 years old, literally age when person has most IRL possibilities and freedom in his/her entire life? ;)
