Discussion Favorite race
I think my favorite race to play is orc. Powerful, badass and most armor looks so much better on the orc than other races!

Of the playable ones? Wood elf. Love the look, love the lore, stats and bonuses really don't matter to me unless I'm doing specific challege runs, because they quickly become obsolete.

Argonians. My first guy was an Argonian, and all my significant characters are Argonian. Guess I am just really gay for hot lizards.

I’ve only played one time, my current playthrough. When I play again (I’m telling myself I will because Skyrim deserves at least a second playthrough), I think I’m gonna go Argonian.
But this first time I just went with a Nord cuz 🤷♂️

Are you making the choices you think a nord would make or taking your own path?

Imperial, by far
I don’t have any particular reasoning, I just always play as them lmao

I love the unique choices of the Argonian. Being a Hist Spirit Warrior using magic inoffensive and swords (Both with two hands) makes me feel like an alien Jedi.

Breton's are my goto. Good at magic and and fighting role-playing as a exiled knight is always cool. Though honestly i love them all. I did a playthrough as a a dunmer trying to consolidate power for the great houses of morrowind, one as a high elf fleeing Thalmor persecution in Cyradil, one as a nord trying to restore the old eays of skyrim.

Dunmer. Most of my characters are dunmer. I have a few wood elves too, but almost always dunmer

Orcs breed faster than the elves, so they have the numbers, however they don’t have the intelligence buffs as the elves

Brenton or argonian, one because they breathe water, the other because they resist magic, and, other reasons……………………………..
