What race do you plan to make your first play through? and why? I'm a little unsure on which race I want to be, so I want to hear your stories! Finally, are there any races you simply despise? Comment!

I like the the night eye ability in Oblivion! (Very helpful) Plus I like the whole sneaky cat perspective when killing my foes My second reace I'll pick will either be a Dunmer or a Wood Elf, depending on the mood I'm in at the time! I tend to avoid the "human" races. (Though I recently started playing a Nord in Oblivion to see what it's like)
My favourite and also first race I'm going to play is Dunmer, because they have bonuses for any kind of combat, because they just look and sound cool (not in Oblivion however) and because I like their badass attitude.

Oirc's are cool too, they're the biggest badass juggernaut's in the world of Tamriel, they kill friggin Minotaur lords and Xivlai's in hand to hand fights without even being trained in the skill.
I don't really like the more human like races however, Nords, Redguards, they're a little dull and to be honest the weaker little brothers of the Orcs. Bretons however are pretty skilled battlemages and pure mages, and Imperials are acceptable warriors or battlemages too and they're good at trading stuff.
Personally I really don't like the Bosmer, in my experience they're little backstabbers, traitors and way to weak if you dodge or block their arrows and get close to them, same for Altmer, their too weak in close combat and they have this snobby attitude.
Beast races look pretty pa... less

Almost all the people I personally know play them to be nekos... I dislike it so much it hurts. The racial ideas behind them are sweet. I just don't like playing them. Or hearing why I am wrong for not playing them myself. (I generally play a sneak of some sort.)
Nord is my race of choice because they are the most like me! They are a proud, strong, honnorable race. They beleive in a warrior's heaven, like my ancestors believed in Valhalla.

They beleive in a warrior's heaven, like my ancestors believed in Valhalla. I dont know why people say humans are uninteresting, I've always thought of them as the "race of destiny."
I dislike the Dunmer. I will never have a dark elf character, because elves exhude an air of arrogance.

I can't say I hate any playable race thats for sure, but im not much of a magic user so a Breton or Altmer I will never play. And in past games I've never given the Khajiit a chance or the Argonians either.

And in past games I've never given the Khajiit a chance or the Argonians either. This time around i'm going to give every race a chance besides the ones that are based heavily on magicka.
A race I despise though would probably have to be Goblins or the Scamps they really annoyed me for some reason

I despise Khajiit because I hate furries.
