    The high elves are terrible and racist nazis with pointy ears (shizno came up with that)dark elves are slavers who abused my favorite race, argonian, and deserved the red mountain eruption and nords are just ignorant and grnocidal

    Bretons and Redguards. What the hell are they there for ? I don't get these races. Why can't they simply be imperials ?

    All the races seem more interesting in Skyrim.  Prior to that, there were several races I found uninteresting or disappointing.

    Yup, I think you nailed it Jacob.  Imperials are just boring.  If I wanted to play a straight-up human, I'd go play any of a thousand other RPG's out there.  Even Bretons are mildly more interesting (although they are 2nd place in the least favorite race)...  more

    Wow David - you nailed it!  There always seemed something a little "off" about the Altmer - I never virtually met one who didn't come across as "too good for the game" - lol.  And definitely looked like they were from The Simpsons!

    I'd have to say Altmer (High Elves)! The are just so up themselves and snobby I have never come across a friendly Altmer and the ones in oblivion look like They're from The Simpsons.
