Furries have ruined Khajiits for me

Eh... Hehe...

This one didn't mean a 'furrier', but one who wears fur u know...

S'cuse this ones ridicolous inglish...

This one's just a 'beast' u see...

Wow total let down the title of the thread got me excited and then crushed my dreams.

I hope there's at least 20-25 different styles of hair to choose from this time around, including BALD.

I want a bald warrior nord with a goatee so I can call him Goldberg.

Well good, that comment wasn't necessarily directed at you but more general.

HAHA! Maybe we can change the color of clothes that way I can have my character decked out in bright orange and call him fruity pebbles...

It's my hope that rather than lizardmen and catfolk simply being out of place in a classically barbaric/sword & sorcery kind of environment, they'll receive a redesign that makes them them fit better with that overall style. The only glimpse of the beast races we have so far -- the Argonian concept -- suggests that as well, at least to my mind. He looks more brutal, stocky and bestial, perfect for a lizardman of grim heroic fantasy.

There's no reason why the Khajiit can't be handled similarly; thicker-bodied, more powerful and compact of build than Morrowind's design, but more bestial than Oblivion's, with prominent claws and stronger tails. Something like http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/1/17166/1259142-khajiit___desert_walker_by_snowskadi_super.jpg?

Wierd...........hope u regret posting that...or maybe ur just grinning through ur cat suit....gehhh *shivers*

The Tamriel Terror needs to see what his beloved khajiiti's will look like!

People keep posting that Argonian concept art. It's just concept art, and not even the focus of what they were showing at the time.

What Argonians actually will look like in game is still entirely up in the air. It may be dramatically different.

hopefully realistic fur for the khajit. And some kind of northern variety of Argonian (it that exists).

Basing this fact from 'The Infernal City' (if it is true to lore at all) there are a high variety of the beast races that we are familiar with throughout Tamriel (especially the Khajit). Therefore, we should see new breeds of Cats and Lizards, if not several.

edit: grammatical mistake.

I just had an epiphany on what Argonians should look like in Skyrim. The Argonians in Morrowind and Cyrodiil probably felt right at home in the more swampy areas of the two provinces but most of Skyrim is cold and ruthless. If you just took an Argonian from Oblivion and plopped him in TESV, he'd look very out of place. How do the devs fix this? Instead of making their designs that of a lizard with gleaming scales, transform them to look more dinosaur-like; tough skin, chiseled facial features, etc. To customize and play a humanoid T-Rex would be sick. I really hope they do this and make the race as a whole more badass.

Definitely agree with the dinosaur idea - thick, horny skin and an overall bulkier physique would do the trick. Different scale colouration in character creation would be amazing, too; I'd love to make a black-and-red or yellow-and-black patterned Argonian.

Or how about something like http://rivendell.fortunecity.com/obsidian/10/draconian.jpg (sans the wings).

Either way, I can't wait to see 'em.

True, but it is suggestive, and I do think that style (what we can gleam of it) would be fitting for Skyrim.

I hope not! Why should they always look angry? Do cats always look angry? Do lizards always look angry?

Now, WHEN they are angry making them look beastly angry is perfectly fine for me. I'm just not a fan of "this is an anthropomorphic animal race, so they are always angry." The same goes for Orcs, I like depth.

As for how they look, I hope of a middle ground between Oblivion and Morrowind. No crazy legs, but more paw-like fingernails and toe nails.

I'm really excited to see how the Argonians and Khajiits have changed. I'm personally hoping their body styles and features resemble Morrowind's style.

I don't care how the beasties look as long as I can continue wearing boots on them.

This thread is also pretty roleplay-heavy. I play an Argonian, but jeez, I'm not that passionate
