The snow elves are gone already, impossible. Maoromer are quite literally hateful against all races on Tamriel. Reach Men are essentially wild-nords (And have no reason to do anything not involving The Reach. Half Giants are ultra rare, seeing as Lyris is the only one we see. Naga also hate quite literally everyone. Dremora have literally no reason to assist us. Goblins are also too stupid to comprehend most quest dialogues.
If you're bored with the current selection, I would suggest finding another fantasy game to be a part of. These current races have been the only playable races in ES for 10+ years. That isn't going to change anytime soon.
WoW and FFXIV are just a couple other fantasy universes that consistently add in playable races if you're wanting to explore some options.

They could add a whole ton if they wanted to:
When we get to explore beyond Tamriel would be abit silly to just stick with the 10 races we have.
And where would these races suddenly disappear to? Because they don't appear in the singleplayer games that happens after ESO.
ESO the mmorpg game is not part of the single player rpg game series.
Lore can be made, & adjusted parallel to the single player rpg experience.

It's getting worse and worse here, now we are also put on the same level as misshapen orcs - as if the comparison between Bosmer and goblins wasn't bad enough...

I know right? Orcs are fine, except certain wood orcs, but being compared to goblins and misshapen orcs? Thrice blasted children of dreck-sifting, root-munching, bread-baking sots is what they are! May their ears be stuffed with whirlifly larvae, and their bow-hand bitten by rabid stoats ...
Races I want added:
- Gobbo
- Skeleton (as seen in Shadowfen)
- Ogre
- Maomer
- Dremora
- Reachmen
- Pahmar-Raht
- Argonian sub-races
Most of these can wear standard armor. Harpies, Senche-Raht, Alfiq, and Naga are interesting but would be very limited in armor. But maybe that's good, only helmet, chestplate, gauntlets, and jewelry would be a good challenge.
The monster races would have totally different faction than the humanoid races. Humanoids would be yellow or red, but outlaw dens would be fine. They'd be yellow or green with other monsters, and take missions to fight humanoids. Even if there's not a lot of quests written for them, they'd be something different to do.
