If you only had a choice between khajiit or Argonian, who would you pick?
Skyrim is now just released but there's an issue. You can only pick between Argonian and Khajiit as your playable race and there won't ever be a mod to say otherwise. Which one do you pick and why?

I'd pick Argonian and feed ulfric to a dragon just because it seems like the right thing to do.

Common now, don't be a debbie downer.

Pros as an Argonian:
- You don't have fur so you don't turn into a fireball thanks to someone's fire magic
- You have a reason to fight for your freedom
- You are physically the strongest (i think?)
- Lusty argonian maids

Pros as a Khajiit:
- You're naturally a good thief
- Women would love to pet you
- You're not as ugly as a lizard

Well, considering I usually go on an Argonian Genocide every play-through, I'm going to have to say Khajiit.

Better question. Would you play Khajiit if your character had a voice over like Fallout 4 ?

Argonian

Khajiit have claw attacks and can see in the dark.
Argonians can breath water and resist disease.

Khajiit have a slight advantage since you can enchant for Argonian benefits

Khajiit, and go gamebreakingly overpowered stealth archer because screw those Nords.

i would pick Nord just to blend in have have better chat options (because the people of skyrim are super mean and rude to anyone but Nords) but my second choice would be Khajiit

the khajiit and argonian race benefits arnt really a big deal and its all visual appeal to me, unarmed damage isnt really a big thing in skyrim (would love to see it expanded in future games so people can play unarmed builds with skills and such), night eye can be gained by magic or vampirism and the argonians underwater breathing can be fixed by enchantments or alchemy and resist disease can be fixed by alchemy, being a werewolf or vampire or enchantments.

so again its all visual appeal (and maybe some lore), not a big deal :steambored:

Khajiit character with the Khajiit Speak - Complete Dialogue Overhaul mod installed are simply unbeatable.

I have laughed so many times reading some of my character's replies. :-)

Khajiit are my least liked race.

I think Khajiit and High Elves are the only race I never actually played.

Argonian are fine, though if I was going to play one long term I'd like to give them mods to make them more traditional Lizard like (armoured scales, waterbreathing, eating humanodies). Be more a monster than Argonian's are in vanilla.

Simple answer: Argonian!

You're supposed to be a dragon born... Where else is the relationship to a dragon more apparent than in a lizardman?
