    Wow this is a total troll thread. People are being bigoted and horrible :(

    I would like to see this thread closed.

    In fairness, the OP did say to be 100% opinionated and subjective. I don't think there is a single person on the planet who doesn't have at least one subjective opinion and/or preconceived notion about something or someone. To pretend otherwise or attempt to feign objectivity on your own part would be little more than an exercise in denial. You said yourself, this is a troll thread, people are being bigoted and horrible. While I might generally agree with that assessment, it doesn't change the fact that your opinion on the thread is equally as subjective as my or anyone else's opinions expressed here. Aside from a handful of replies that are clearly racist / offensive / otherwise in violation of forum rules, I see no reason to censor peoples' honest subjective opinions regarding fictional races.

    Yes, if people could be polite about it...but some of the posts are really horrible irrespective of it being about fictional races. It still attacks race.

    The dark elves are awful in my opinion. Lore wise, I feel the least connection to them. [ I actually chose not to make a magdk because dark elf is probably BiS. Lol]

    On a personal level my favorite race is Nord- I drag people into Blessed Crucible just for the scene where she announces "incineration beaattles!" However, out of 8 characters- 7 fully leveled- I have no nords. Other races have better Passives for how I like to play. So in eso online my runner up least favorite is Nord. :(

    Well yes, the posts that are obviously offensive towards real life people are clearly in violation of forum rules, not to mention common decency. But I don't necessarily think someone saying "I hate cats" is as bad as someone saying "I hate people with X colored skin".

    Though I'm sure that some cats might disagree with me on that point.

    Not a TES gamer. Played Skyrim two months ago
    ->

    They look so not intimidating at all.
    Very lizardy. They are like the comic relief of the game.
    I don't know anything about the lore, and don't rly care, I just enjoy the ESO stories,
    but if they were more like dragon people instead of lizards on 2 legs, then I would make a toon. They are just too funny.

    As for Racial passives....
    Lol. As if such little stats will rly matter if you are good or not.

    Before Morrowind dropped Argonians were Considered a solid race for tanking. Max health, bonus to healing received and done and the potion passive.

    After Morrowind dropped Argonians have become considered BiS for the same reasons, mainly due to the potion passive due to the nerf on sustain.

    I honestly don't understand the Nord Hate...which steamer said Nords are cool to hate? Deltia? What is this, 2014?

    I just assume the forum is filled with Dunmer, who are just pissed of what will happen in the upcoming eras. Mainly that they will be discriminated in Windhelm. It would explain the hate against Argonians.

    All of this ^^^^^ from post one confirms my view on the worst race: THE HUMAN RACE, All of mankind is the worst on this planet.
    But in game I don't like the High Elves, they are to big, even the smallest of them is gigantic, I have a female high elve set to smallest and she is still bigger than all my other toons. Because they are so big and tall they naturally look down on you while talking, this made them believe they are superior to all, they could not be more wrong... I gave up the much needed damage bonus they give, just because they are giants, and went with a brenton.

    Bretons are very, very bland. Their passives and history have some good parts, but it just isn't implemented well (in any game) and they end up just being "Generic Fantasy Humans 20,117,890,161... which is funny, because Imperials are actually quite interesting, being that most of them are cultists, daedra in disguise, awesome warriors and companions that run with you, dragonguard, legionaries, etc.

    I find the cat people irritating. Their look and their talk. The third person "this one" talk irks the crap out of me.

    The third person talk actually has a bit of lore/reasoning behind it. Khajiit are not limited to the third person entirely. It's more a matter of how much they trust or respect the person they are speaking with.

    Ignorance, bigotry... No one is created to be a slave, not in ESO nor irl. Also, for someone who hate Dunmer, you surely could fit in house Dres with ease.

    Also, about false gods. Who on Nirn are you to tell any race in ESO who to worship? Some worship aedra, other worship daedra, there are various tree and beast cults in ESO. All of them have some power/boon. By your standards, all but Sithis are false gods, so all races are crap.

    Worst race is clearly orc. I'm not sure how they even create a small scale functioning society without just killing one another into oblivion.

    I voted Redguard.

    Thing is: lore wise, they are awesome. The entire story line of the Ansei and their Shihai, the Ra'Gada warrior wave, Yokuda and its Atlantean inspired lore - its ALL soooo awesome.

    BUT

    It's undeniable that Todd Howard lazily took every real world race of color and threw them into one race. It's like, African, and Arabs and Indians mashed into one race. Then they realized, "hey this might be racist" so they made the redguards this pseudo Japanese Samurai (Kensai = Ansei) honor bound epic warrior race.

    come on Bethesda. . . who are you trying to fool?

    Passives and game mechanics wise: Nord.

    Lore and otherwise: Altmer. Elves have allways been the forefront agressor in every tamrielic war, and here Ayrenn is actively draging her people WHO DO NOT WANT TO BE INVOLVED into a war for her own power and crusade. Ayrenn is a godamn warmonger.

    That is the biggest lie I've ever read. Ever heard of the allessian rebellion. The races of man just had to get up in a tizzy and overthrow there elven masters. That was all humans that started that ***.

    If you experienced what the Ayleid's did to them, you'd join Alessia as well.

    Nord is the only race that I feel is a worse choice over another race in all scenarios (except RPing -_-).

    .....also why are people picking Argonian?? They are actually strong right now for tanks and healers in particular.

    Even on the internet, clear communication is important; it can be the difference between "helping your Uncle Jack off a horse" and "helping your uncle jack off a horse"; the difference between "knowing your s***" and "knowing you're s***".

    I was going to say nords, but the nords at least have amusing accents sometimes. Imperials are just fancy nords without the accents though.
