Which is the worst race according to you ?

Jerkling✭✭✭✭Khajitnords being deemed worst race? they are the best tank race in this game for [insert your gods name] sake...1 -
Enslaved✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭BretonDunmer, Khajiit or Argonians. Went with Dunmer because, even though Khajiit and Argonians were created to be slaves as they are beasts, at least they don't worship fake gods.
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.
Damn I really hit a nerve. Glad my joke lured one fish into the pond though.
e: @Enslaved Although by you're name, enslaved, I'm guessing you're attempting a troll lol
Since slavery is something to laugh about...
Well it is something to laugh about because Argonians and Khajiits deserve it. They are inferior to all other races, including Dunmer. But again, Dunmer pray to false gods, they deserved to be nearly wiped off the face of Tamriel after the Oblivion Crisis.
You are edgy for a cp 27 12 y old, aren't you...
I'm not the one getting annoyed because I am stating facts that Argonians and Khajiit were created to be slaves. Face the truth dude.
Oh, and I'm 800+ CP and certainly not 12 years old. I'm actually 13...
you sure do sound like 12 y old. And your arguments are on that level. I just don't understand why there are no sanctions for someone who is thinking of others being created to be slaves. I bet you are racist irl as well.Edited by Enslaved on July 8, 2017 10:25AM4 -
CardboardedBox✭✭✭✭AltmerHigh elves are my least favorite, but Bretons are a close second. Bretons have to be the most boring race in the game.
And argonian jokes aside, argonians are my favorite as I find them the most different compared to every other choice.0 -
Demycilian✭✭✭✭ImperialMer should have been an option ... snobby, power hungry slavers. They need to apologize to the Hist for wasting the oxygen they produce. All Mer are horrible, dark elves are the worst. Even when they are dead they dont have the decency to return to the void and their spirits roam around telling people they are doing it wrong... So arrogant, so annoying...

TonyRockaroni✭✭✭✭✭AltmerAs someone who pretty much strictly plays an Argonian, I erect the spine of sorrow at seeing the dislike for them.
They're one of the most unique races in video games, they have awesome lore, and there's nothing really generic about them. In fact, had the Argonians not existed, I probably would have never even gotten into The Elder Scrolls series in general. Not gonna lie. They are what pulled me into the series and got me interested in it.
My least favorite race is definitely the Altmer because even though they aren't generic, they are extremely unlikable as a people because of how up themselves they are. Bretons and Imperials would have to be second for me just because of how generic they are to me.
Even though I do dislike the Dunmer because of how they treated the Argonians (especially Houses Telvanni and Dres). But I can't really say I dislike all of the Dunmer or everything about them. There are things I do like about them and their culture. If I was just basing this on slavery and Houses Dres and Telvanni, no question they'd be who I'd dislike the most. But I think the Altmer are much worse. Especially after playing through Black Marsh in ESO and how the Thalmor present themselves in Skyrim.Edited by TonyRockaroni on July 8, 2017 11:57PM4 -

✭✭✭✭✭NordI was up in the air about this one. It was between Nord and Khajiit. Sure, the cats are still decent in PVE, but with the stealth nerf and everyone running impen in PVP, they are not that great in Cyrodiil.
Nords. Well. A very niche class, which at first glance you would think they'd be BiS for tanking, but Imperial and Argonian are probably better imho, making the Nord racials kind of meh.
I'm really surprised to see Argonians coming in second. With the ritual mundus you basically have a passive major mending, and drinking a potion just before using an ultimate on a DK will give you a FLOOD of resources. So not only do they make great tanks, but they make the best healers too.
Still, they aren't as sexy as Bretons. Mmmm.1 -

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.
See? That's why there's gonna be a second term.
The best written is debatable, both ad and dc had nice characters, ad had raz, ayreen, etc and dc had Darien and Gabrielle etc. Off the top of my head I can only name naryu for ep. Joreen had very little screentime so I felt the least connected to him of the faction leaders
Rigurt - nord ambassador. Also Raynor and his sister - forgot the name - who are dungeon delvers and research dwemer stuff. but yeah, DC is the best.0 -

✭✭BosmerWow.
Did not realise that soooo many players were into role playing as Dunmer zealots.
And their wit is so amazing. 'Bad handbags' - lol. How drole!
(Argonians are awesome. And they don't need to keep going on about this. They just know it.)5 -
xxfgrxxSoul ShrivenBosmerUgh, Altmer are not "terrible people" like a lot of you said, some of them are bad people like the Vailed heritance, but the Aldmeri Dominion took care of them, besides one of the most important guilds and the cause that magic is a thing in Tamriel was created by Vanus Galerion, an Altmer.
Bosmer are by far worse, they are ugly, they cannibalize, (but not too much now thanks to Queen Ayrenn, again, an Altmer) and they are just a big mess wherever they are.
Ugly? Female bosmer are friggin adorable what type of moonsugar are you on?
You are right, just the male ones.0 -

The a-holes you meet in AD's questline, The Veiled Heritance, are the elitist snobs that eventually become the second, evil Aldmeri Dominion you know and hate. After Tiber united Tamriel under his empire and the first AD was no more, the Veiled Heritance conspired to create a new, "perfect" Dominion with only the "elite".

So cut Kate some slack, ok? She's leading a good group of people who want to help guide, not enslave or dictate, other races for PEACE. The Veiled Heritance are the ones that want all non-Altmer under their heel.
THANK YOU! As an Altmer I cant agree with you more, I'm tired of people judging Altmers just because they played ESSkyrim!!

Countcalorie✭✭✭AltmerVoted high elves for obvious reasons.
Honestly though I dislike the lore behind argonians the most.Its my favorite race lookswise but I cant stand the whole "hist" thing.
despite this I usually allways play as an argonian in any elder scrolls game.
My favourite lorewise is Khajiit.
I Find the dunmer culture interesting yet repulsive.
Nords are just a bit boring and woodelves eat each other.1 -
Countcalorie✭✭✭AltmerSome patches ago, I could have said Nords, Argonians and Orcs. Now it is clear.
BTW those who say "Argonian" know nothing. Currently it is the most versatile class, just one step above Dumer (just because sustain issues).
Argonians are not a class, nor race, they are property or a source of low quality leather
high elf skin makes comfortable sheets though2 -
