Which race would you like to play?

This is a poll to figure out the race spread on this site. Faction balance could be an issue, but then again it may end up working out pretty well. Are they going to offer incentives to those that are on a faction with less people?

 

Faction balance so far (144 votes)

 

Ebomheart Pact 38.2%
Aldmeri Dominion 23.7%
Daggerfall Covenant 29.1%

    I like the dark elves in TES games, but what the hell, this time I'll go Bosmer (wood elf), and this is despite the high and haughty Altmer as allies....

    First, I don't know their zones, so it'll be something new. And then I dislike too crowded factions and I'm betting the Ebonheart Pact will be just that.

    So I guess by that logic, my second pick would be Khajiit.

    Breton most likely as sadly Imperial is not playable.

    I went with Redguard as that is what I used in the TES games.

    If I decide to play I will try to play a Dark Elf. If a good many of my friends want to go Aldmeri dominion I'll go High Elf.

    Breton if it gives the same magic resist racial as Skyrim.  Doubt it will though.   

    Otherwise, since they just randomly whack a cat or lizard head on a human, I would like this for a head : -

    If crafting is as good as they say it will be, then I'll be an orc blacksmith, if not then Argonian, lizards ftw :)

    I don't really know much about the different races having never played the ES RPGs but the above is my thinking too and how I voted.

    By THIS poll it looks like Ebonheart is going to be the favored. Could just be me but at the launch of a game, the evil or darker factions seem to attract more players. Myself I am not 100% sure where I wana play first. All I know is I will be rolling an Elf. Always loved elves as I was growing up, Forgotten realms, DnD, LotR.

    I would like to play a Human Dominion slave that turns against his masters after learning that there is a human kingdom fighting against them, wandering elf lands slowly taking his revenge...oh wait, sorry...thought this was a TES game or at least an MMO that doesnt hold my hand and tell me how to play like TES games dont.

    Probably it´s just me, but i´m not into this cr--p again. Looks like a SWTOR 2, in terms of character diversity. It does not matter if you play as a human or orc, they look all the same, just diffrent texture/skins, same hieght, weight.. never saw an anorexic orc. But maybe i´m wrong...

     

    Give me a Goblin or a dwarf! FFS Sick of playing as a human, again...

    As always, doesnt know what to say so throws out BS.

    It was on topic, and pointing out limited gameplay is not hate, its reality.

    [mod edit]

    ... back on topic: Altmer because I like playing elves and it looks like the improved art style finally makes them look somewhat attractive without needing to resort to a bunch of mods.

    Good to see such an even split. If I play I would probably be going nord as that's what I allways played in tes games :)
  • SovrathSovrath Member LegendaryPosts: 32,952

    I'm surprised at how many people want to play Bosmer.

    I always found them annoying to creepy in both Morrowind and Oblvion.

    I always hated the way bosmer looked in morrowind and oblivion but the one I made in skyrim looked awesome. I think if the character design capabilities are similar I might make one of those. Otherwise I will go with the trusty Nord.
