Definitely can't play as a Khajiit or an Argonian. (Cats the musical or Jurassic Park - no thank you to both.)

 

I always used to go Wood Elf or High Elf. But given that both of them look demented in Skyrim I've gone over to the Nords.

 

:facepalm:

It's going to sound odd, but I found that if I shortened my Khajiit (using the player.setscale command in the console) and set it to .80, then the Khajiit doesn't seem so weird. It makes them about child-sized and that seems to work. It always bugged me that the "cats" were about the same size as humans. It just didn't feel right.

 

I'm probably going to have to make a mod when the CS comes out and change the heights on all the Khajiit. Maybe the Argonians as well. :unsure:

Can't play Argonians - they are just plain ugly ugly ugly ugly. I don't dislike them as a race or scoiety in the Elder Scrolls gameworld and lore, I just can't stand the way they look. I dislike lizards and snakes, really reptiles in general in real life, so I have no desire to be one in a game either. Khajiit on the other hand I have always liked, I love their voices, their crazy eccentric personalities, and now that Skyrim actually has really good looking Khajiit I'm now playing one as my second character. It's the same for Orcs too, I always wanted to play one in previous games, but they have been butt ugly and greener than the Jolly Green Giant, now they are much more appealing and I will roll one of them for my fighter/warrior character at some point.

 

If I had to pick a race that I dislike aside from their looks, it would be the Altmer... arrogance personified always turns me off. :P

Kahjit. It feels awkward. I dont mind others playing, but i simply can't. Besides there already sits a cat at home here. ^^

 

Also to me the concept appears to be abit strange. Personally i dont think it is necesarry to possess hair and fingernails at a certain stage anymore (from an evolutionary standpoint).

 

Argonians look awesome in skyrim. I really like all the detail and i find the concept of reptiles fantastic. Still, i would not want to play as one.

 

I am more the human or elf (like in lotr) to be honest.
