Your favorite race Options

[Elisabeth Hollow]

That's half of the playable races KOB!

Oh

I guess I like all races but the elves(that includes orcs)

I'm not being racist, I'm just not an elf fan. I usually like characters that can be extremely manly(yes, orcs can be like that, but I can't stand the way they look) and in my eyes, elves are......frilly. Im not saying I hate elves, but The Thalmor have helped contribute to me not being an elf fan....

No offense to anyone who likes the elves

You don't like Kayla? XD

Berserker Rage! Berserker Rage!

Have you tried an Argonian? Their Hist power makes their health regenerate so fast!

[Elisabeth Hollow]

My husband's favorite is Argonian. He never has to buy Waterbreathing potions lol

[SubRosa]

My favorite changed with Skyrim. The dark elves there seem a bunch of whiners with a sense of entitlement larger than Nirn itself. It makes me glad their country was blown up and then stomped by the Argonians.

Now my favorite are the Altmer. I always liked them in Oblivion, especially playing one born under the Apprentice because of what wonderful glass cannons they make. Something in Skyrim put them over the top for me. I am not sure exactly what. Maybe it is just a knee-jerk reaction to the Thalmor (and by extension most Altmer) being the bad guys now? Or perhaps it is the English accents they now have? Or maybe it is just that Niranye is a sexy beast? In any case, I do love playing them now.

There isn't enough places in the game where water breathing would be really helpful, at least in my opinion. They look awesome, and they have that mega health regen power.

Or maybe it is just that Niranye is a sexy beast?

There's the real reason finally!

No, Kayla is fine! I just thinks elves are....frilly. I'm not saying I hate them

[Elisabeth Hollow]

KAYLA IS NOT FRILLY XD

You're frilly! With your...face...and.... things!

I'm not frilly! Kayla is an exception. I don't think she's too frilly.

[King Coin]

I don't think she's too frilly.

But still frilly.

[Elisabeth Hollow]

You two are a pair of meat-suckers.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

-grumbles about mouth-punching as she slams the door on the thread-

-shouts through door-

I'LL SHOW YOU FRILLY!

Two, but I haven’t tried Histskin yet. Kai-Neeus stuck to the shadows until a patch took her out, and Crook Tooth hasn’t been in real danger yet. He is so cautious and good at sneaking that he even slipped by a sabre cat. He does look awesome. Especially after his makeover. He cashed in his first major haul to get his feathers dyed blue.

From Oblivion I enjoy Redguards the most. Awesome culture, tremendous fun to play as swordsmen from the first step into the world, and (this part is pure vanity) pretty easy to make a good-looking character if you can sort out the uneven complexion issues.

OHHH yes. Darian is one of my fave males in the contest we had last month.

I can't pick a fave in either OB or Sky. Orcs are my least fave in Oblivion (Lord Rugdumph and Mazoga are a couple exceptions), but i actually like the orcs in Skyrim.

The Orcs in Oblivion were comical looking. In Skyrim, EVERYONE was terrifying, Orcs most of all...

Because Kayla is frilly......



Ok, I'll stop

The orcs in skyrim looks pretty badass compared to the ones in oblivion. The nords do too.

[Elisabeth Hollow]

Don't you start that now! XD

The orcs in Skyrim look more like Lord of the Ring orcs. Dark, gruesome....

...man that is weird. I just had deja vu moment.

[Elisabeth Hollow]

I dunno, I thought the female orcs were gorgeous.

[ghastley]

The Orcs looked better in Daggerfall

Mind you, creating that mod wasn't as easy as just rolling one in character creation. But after I'd made her for Oblivion, I just had to do the same when I installed the earlier game.

WHOA that looks awesome! I think I would defintely 'regress' to DF if I had a PC.

Then again, it probably doesn't take a very powerful PC to run Daggerfall, right? Hmm.....

[ghastley]

The bizarre thing about Daggerfall is that you need either a (reasonably) powerful machine to run DosBox to emulate the old DOS calls via the more complex Windows API's, or a really old one that Win 95 can support. That means that a lot of the middle-aged machines (e.g. the 433MHz Celeron thing I tried it on) that can run Win XP happily, can't run Daggerfall at all.

I spent a while recently trying to get it installed on an old laptop that has Win 95, and so you can access a real DOS to run it natively. However, my new machine has no floppy drive, and the old machine can't handle a thumb drive, and has no CD reader or ethernet port, so I can't transfer the software across!

Any machine that can run Oblivion has enough power to run DosBox and Daggerfall, though. You just can't assume that an old machine will run it, even if it's more recent than the game.
