SHIROryuu Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 ...I still can't tell the difference between the Imperials and Bretons...Should you be able to? Aren't they basically the same, but with different stats or whatever? Have to forgive me if I don't understand lore behind the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A development goal of Skyrim was to more strongly differentiate the races from each other. e.g. in Oblivion, elves were indistinguishable from humans except for the ears and skin color + eyes in the case of dunmer. With that in mind it's a bit disappointing to see that bretons, imperials, and nords are practically identical. (You could tell Nords apart from the others in Oblivion only because they were by far the most deformed, really.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are all similar despite different features based on race and location. Still look like humans though. Considering Nord, Redguard, Breton and Imperial are all human based races, why wouldn't they look the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcrin Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Yeah, but Elves are all different (if terrifying) now... I guess that's pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcrin Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Does this mean...no more sexy elf pictures?I can't live without those! /sarcasm It'll probably still be possible to make elves who don't look like vampires... these are just the default base faces after all. Plus, custom races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gretzky99 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 If you want to find the differences between the races, just look up the lore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
