Zaria think bears make nice rugs, however Zaria prefer beer, over bears.

At least bears have sense enough to have fur unlike the stupid nords.

Well, Nords don't have fur because they like to show their pretty fair skin. Ofcourse.

Not that they all have such a skin. Some get a bit rugged, like that one Gray-Mane guy.

Plus, Imperial Luck is useless practically, and Voice of the Emperor has more limitations than Battle Cry.

I prefer Bretons myself. 25% resistance of all Magic attacks is quite useful, as is Dragonskin.

From a Min-Max perspective, I'd have to give it to Argonian Vampires boosted via Necromage:

Histskin to rapidly regenerate, even in daylight

WIth Atronach Perk, Necromage, and Atronach Stone, total immunity to magic.

An ability similar to Night Eye

Immunity to Disease

Immunity to Poison

Free Waterbreathing

More powerful hand to hand than most races though weaker than Khajiit

All the abilities that come with being a vampire/vampire lord.

Whut?

A race with a 50% resistance to one of the most pervasive elemental magic attack types in the game is inferior?

Probably is Nords, I don't find their frost resistance anymore useful than the Dunmer's fire resistance and their shout ability isn't much more useful than an Imperials voice power. Natural powers don't get used much by me though anyways lol. Usually don't need them no matter the race. I probably use the Bosmer's ability the most.

Indeed. The Nords of today are quite inferior. Why, how far from grace they have fallen... For the past 4000 years, I have watched from my prison, forced to watch as my beloved kinsman... killed themselves so-to-speak. Observed as the heresies took root, and the poison seeped into their ethos. Painful it was, seeing everything we achieved - with Alduin's divine blessing - get thrown away in favor of the seductive sphere of the Snake's brother whom is the razor-fed Daedra of the Deadlands.

To say they are inferior is an understatement. Did you know... the Nords used to be a mystical race of humans? Favored by the Dragon we were. Envied by the Slavemaster Lorkhan, who knew not of glory, for trickster he is. Slave to the void forever, so we must also be enslaved. And now look on the once mystical race of fabled philosopher warriors. Men and women who once danced in allureing choreography with their swords as they pondered the arcane mysteries of Aetherius... Equally. In balance. The perfect warriors they were. They were well versed in all warfare. Not like the trogs of today who follow superstitious taboo as if they just waltzed out of a shabby cave. Woe to my brothers and sisters, I remember as if it were yesterday. How proud I was of you, my kinsmen. How proud, Overlord Alduin was, of his favored servants - glory be.

You can talk about superior elves all you want, but only Nords and Redguards have eradicated entire races. No left handed elves, and almost no snow elves, besides their twisted remains and a few handful normals.

Every game in the TES series is centred around the default character (host race).

It was the same in Oblivion, Morrowind...

Being able to customise your character which includes being able to change your race is just an added in bonus.

Every race will eventually get their story / game as the series moves through Tamriel

You aren't talking about the real inferior race:

BOSMER!!!!

Annoying Fan is a Bosmer. Heck, supposedly even the devs changed Mankar from a Bosmer to an Altmer because they thought nobody would take him seriously if he was a Bosmer. That should be enough to tell you.

You only say that because you're a petty human in real life.
