Bosmer and the Khajiit. I just don't like being short or too hairy, even in a videogame.

I don't think there's a non-modded race that I haven't tried. Plain Khajiit aren't my style, nor are Argonians, Imperials, Altmer, Redguards, Orcs, or Nords, but I have played as those races before.

Never play as a Redguard, a Wood Elf or a Breton.
Dunmer as a primary, Imperial if I'm feeling saucy.
Khajit and Argonian are for comedy effect only.

I never play as:
Orcs (maybe if they fix their faces)
Redguards (they're ok, but I don't play them)
Dunmer (I'd rather kill them all)
Bosmer (Glarthir)
Altmer (meh)
Khajiit (one of my favorite races but I don't play them)
Breton (Imperials are cooler)
Nords (Again, Imperials are cooler)

That just leaves Argonians and Imperials, who are in my top 3, along with Khajiit.

I have nothing against them, I just don't like warrior-type classes.

Same for me, but I use them for stealth classes instead of a warrior role.

I don't remember ever playing as an Altmer, and only put a few hours into being an Argonian, but I've had significant characters from every other race.

Never fancied playing a Redguard, and I tried making an Orc warrior but I just couldn't get into it so I deleted it. Dunmer is my main choice, followed by Wood Elf and Khajiit.

I've never played as an Altmer, Imperial, Nord or Redguard. Not because I don't want to, I just haven't got around to it

Never played as an Altmer or an Imperial.

The only races I play regularly are Khajiit, Bosmer and Redguards.

Altmer, most of them are jerks, plus I think they look kind of stupid. They make good NPCs though.

Not a huge fan of Altmer. Dunno why, but I prefer to complete the MQ with whatever race is local. The thought of Indoril Nerevar being reborn as an Argonian is... comical, at best.

Redguard, Bretons, Orsimer, Argonian and Bosmer. I think the Bosmers is the only ones i have ever actually tried to play as but today i kinda look down on them. I mean, they are small, weak and annoying, why would i want to play as one when Bethesda (fortunately) give you a choise?. :hehe:

Argonians is just not my thing. If i want to play as one of the beast races, Khajiit is the way to go.

I have to say a part of me actually like the Orcs. It's just not a race i want to play as. Besides, Nords is my favourite race, and as we all know, everything the Orcs can do, the Nords can do better. :rock:

As for the Redguards, it's pretty much the same thing as the Orcs. Let us just say that i strongly disagree with the crap about the Redguards being the greatest warriors in the Empire. When it comes to the Combat class, Nords are my first, second, third, fourth and fifth choise, not Orcs and not Redguards. Heck i woulnd't even hesitate to use them as mages or assassin's. :D Furthermore, i prefer if my characters look atleast somewhat like myself if i play as a human male, and it's just not that easy to make a Redguard look European. :laugh:

Bretons. Mainly because i prefer the Altmer if i want to make a mage character. I can see myself use them in the future though.

All in all, i'm completely satisfied with the 10 races in The Elder Scrolls and wouldn't change anything even if i don't want to play as all of them.

Least played are Argonians and Khajiit. I've never had a long-lasting Beast Race character.

I have never had a Bosmer character that made it past level 5. I used to play Khajiit characters, but I haven't done so in a couple of years. I like Argonians, but I rarely play as one, they make really awesome survivalist characters in Morrowind though.
