I never play as Orcs, Imperials, or Altmer. I'm currently on a Redguard character in Oblivion and finding I don't like it as much as I've liked Nords or even Dunmer for the warrior role (probably because I can't help putting a lot of energy towards magic use, at least for healing and buffing.) I'm mostly a steath player, though, so I almost always play a Bosmer or Khajiit. My favorite so far has just been Khajiit. For whatever reason I've just never played an Argonian or a Breton for more than a couple levels.

Why? *sad meow*

I don't think I've ever had an Imperial character. They're just too ordinary for my tastes.

I play as a Dunmer about 90% of the time, but the races i never play as are Redguard, Breton and Imperial. Dont like them at all.

orcs, argonians, altmer, and khajiit (not including daggerfall khajiit. those are my favorite to play as.)

I don't play as talking bananas, gremlins, chain smokers, upright green pigs, stupid drunks, chocolate, Caesar salads or Friar Tuck.

Imperials, Altmer, and Bosmer

I would also like to know the answer to this.

As for races I don't play as, I've never played as a Khajiit. I've played as every race, usually for roleplaying reasons, but I've never found myself to be a Khajiit. It's not that I don't like them, I've just never found reason to play as a Khajiit. :shrug:

Their skin color.

To make this easier, the only races I've played are the Argonians and the Bretons.

The rest are meh XD

the only races I've played are the Argonians

There might be some truth to it though.

P.S. I hope I did not offend anyone, that was not my prerogative.

I have never played as a Khajiit or Altmer.

Redguards are my favorite, followed by Dark Elves and Bretons.

I barely ever play the other races, but I have occasionally.

I think most of us were thinking that, but I wanted to hear it from the horse's mouth.

You did not answer why you hate cats.

Okay, you caught me, I don't really hate cats. But I'd take a dog over a cat any day. The biggest reason would be, even though it kinda svcks, being a 6ft cat on two legs feels too weird for me. Didn't even really like playing the cat people in EQ.

I understand why you would not want to be a 6 foot cat who stand on 2 legs. Speaking of which, I wish there were some khajits who looked like panthers.

Looks like a panther, or has the coloring of a panther? Also, khajiit has two "i" between the "j" and the "t"

Has the coloring, they all have different facial features anyway.

I never play as Orcs, Woodelves, Redguards, Argonians, or Khajiits.

Orcs: Too brutish. They also look naturally aggressive. I know its an action adventure RPG, but I want maintain a level of pacification.

Woodelves: Too short. They seem to be known for being light and agile, making them ideal scouts and thieves...I don't play as those classes.

Redgaurds: I see enough of redgaurds when I look in the mirror.

Argonians + Khajiits: Not exactly cool looking to me. http://www.videogamesblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/lizardman-aeon-calcos-in-soul-calibur-4.jpg http://www.wizards.com/magic/images/cardart/LRW/Ajani_Goldmane_640.jpg Their current looks seem too tame for me to take seriously.

Mind you, if they looked that animalistic and epic some people may not take them seriously at all.

Who are you, Uncle Ruckus?

I have played as all of them except Khajiits, I have been a Redguard only once (I was able to make a face that looked almost exactly like Jet Li), and Orc only twice.

I am usually a Breton Warrior or a Dunmer Scout.

Ive never played orc, highelf, argonian, Khajiit or redgaurd.

Ive played wood elf and dark elf once.

But generally i only play nords, even for my stealth characters, since i am a nord(nordmann) in real life it feels more natural for me. I generally try to make the character as similar to me as possible.
