Kajhiit or Orc?

Post » Wed Mar 30, 2011 6:55 am

Voted Both.

Did anybody else notice the orc has one blind eye, and a chipped tusk? Is this showing some of the character customization... Or will every Orc in Skyrim have a chipped dusk, and a blind eye? :P

The kahjit's face looks better (in that it actually looks like fur, [and has real whiskers and overall a better head... and probably, if none of the other races look better ... which argonian probably will >_>... I might play khajit] and not... you know... video game stuff...) But I also love the orc, mostly because... ya know... It looks [censored] awesome... too

I've always hated how Orcs look in both Oblivion and Morrowind. And now I don't - Orcs are looking absolutely gorgeous, in a wicked cursed-elf-that-look-brutal kind of way. With some cool jamaican hairstyles to boot, the potential is compelling.

Orcs have improved more, I think. They look really defined and interesting now.

I always thought that Oblivion's Khajiit looked pretty cool. The only things I didn't like were the haircuts, and the human animations. And we can't say anything about these two yet.
Seeing the whiskers on them now is really fantastic, however. It's a vast improvement that I didn't even know was needed.

BTW, in agreement with the people who say that the answer "both" to the question "which improved more" is really stupid. Yes, they both look great now, I think we can agree on that.

Khajiits look awesome now, but the orcs from oblivion looked better than they do now.

Both have improved and both look awesome. However considering how terrible orcs were in OB (I didn't feel this way until seeing the Skyrim Orc though :P ) I think orcs improved more.

I would have to say both are looking amazing, and I can't wait to see the other races(especially Dumners)

Orcs look mean as hell, can't get used to the kajhiit's face though, can't put my finger on it... it just looks to animal to be humanoid :s

Gotta say Orc; they looked sort of goofy in Oblivion and the one we've seen from Skyrim is terrific. I never did have much of a problem with the Oblivion Khajiits, in fact I think they're the best designed race in that game along with the Argonians.

Both of course. The improvements are incredible.

The Khajiit looks tough but cuddly at the same time. :hugs:

The orc looks even more unpleasant, but in a good way. :poke:

Which one from the screenshots is more appealing and over all has made a bigger improvement from Oblivion to Skyrim?

Link to the screens http://pcmedia.ign.com/pc/image/article/116/1162158/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-20110415033047799.jpg http://pcmedia.ign.com/pc/image/article/116/1162158/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-20110415033053299.jpg

Some lore for each for those that are curious. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Khajiit http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Orc


I actually think the Khajiit looks better out the two. I like the face tattoo and different eyes but I'd rather that on my Nord which'll be my main character.

When I made an orc character in Oblivion I based him on a powerful barbarian leader like Attila the Hun & Genghis Khan so I guess I've convinced myself I like to see them the short in height but very strong, stocky look like many Mongolians.

Orc has improved more. IMO, Khajiit looked just fine in Oblivion, but Orcs looked terrible. Now they look cool.

The khajits in Oblivion were acceptable, the orcs were not. The orcs were big green stupid looking potato people. Now Im actually tempted top make an orc.

Both, definitely. The orcs look a lot more brutal this time around. A major improvement over Oblivion's orcs. However, the Khajiit really do look badass now!

In my opinion, Khajiit honestly look the same. They were good back then, and they're still good now. Maybe they're slightly fluffier?

The orc more so, but both look so much more amazing. Bear in mind that Oblivion came out in 2005...I think?

The Khajiit looked great, but I have to say the Orc improved more. They actually looked orcish this time around rather than ugly humans with green skin.
