How would you rank races?

[MadCrusader]

Simple, rank playable races from most to least favorite, or vice versa if that’s your thing. Here’s my list.
10: Altmer (These are the most snobbish race in game at the best of times, and the Thalmor make me want to commit war crimes.)
9: Orcs (More or less the same as orcs in any other fantasy setting, not very interesting)
8: Argonians
7: Dunmer (Rank this high mostly because of interesting lore, but they aren’t nice. They’re the unbeaten champions of competitive racism.)
6: Bosmer (Honestly the nicest elves in game aside from the religious cannibalism)
5: Khajiit
4: Redguards
3: Imperials
2: Nords (Tied with Bretons lorewise)
1: Bretons (Favorite gameplay-wise, bar none)

Humans and elves are boring. Beastraces are where it's at!

You’d like my brother then. He mains Khajiit for the unarmed combat.

I don't usually care all that much about the race more than the RP value. I *really* enjoy playing as underdog characters and who is more underdog in Skyrim than the beast races? The only other race that comes close is the Orsimer and they at least don't have quite the racism going against them.

Join the orcs. We have the best racial ability.

Your lack of natural talent for magic says otherwise.

I occasionally play as an orc. It depends on my backstory. My current personal favorite is Telvanni slave, and you have two choices for that one: Argonian or Khajiit. It depends on whether I'm feeling like a light sword-and-board or a heavy two-hander.

Honestly orc spellcasters are a lot of fun to RP. As I said: underdogs!

I can get the same benefit with a Nord clever man.

Whatever floats your boat, I suppose. I personally nearly always find humans to be boring in nearly every game I play and tend to not play as them.

Double damage ability works with sneak attacks

Yea, I hear a lot that humans are boring in fantasy settings. What is it just because you COULD play as an elf or alien?

S-tier: Breton, Orsimer, Khajiit
A-tier: Altmer, Redguard
B-tier: Dunmer, Nord
C-tier: Argonian, Imperial, Bosmer

If playing with Survival Mode, Argonians become D-tier because swimming is dangerous and they're weak to cold weather

[th]

S-tier:
1) I like Argonians coz they are really good choice when you want some hardcore in Survival on legendary difficulty.
2) I like Nords coz it's Skyrim. Nords live here.
3) I like Dunmers coz Morrowind.

A-tier:
1) I like Bretons coz I like mages.
2) I like Altmers coz of the same reason. But I would play Altmer as a good guy who respects other races.
3) I like Khajiits. I don't exactly know why. I believe I sense something sympathetic hidden deep inside them. Not in every one of them of coz. And it's not their catlike appearance. It's deeper.

B-tier:
1) I like Orcs for their tribal way. It has its own and very special beauty.
2) I am very indifferent to Redguards. Can't say much about them.

C-tier:
1) I don't get Bosmers. They look kind of strange to me. Especially their men. Mey be it's their low height? May be it's Faendal's disgusted face. I think they kind of lack "elvishness". Once again - especially their men.
2) I don't like Imperials. I don't hate them too but still. The main reason I think coz they are an eponymous race of The Empire. And I don't like The Empire.

Lol. For exactly the same reason I think that Argonians are the best for Survival coz it's a lot harder to play Argonian in Survival and harder is always better.

How would I rank the races?

Well I would probably put the London Marathon first, Followed by the 100 metres, then the 300 metre relay, then maybe one of the swimming races, then the Triathlon, then.......

My man.

I'm just ranking the races based on meta, not on fun. There's nothing more fun than a lizard wizard in a blizzard.

I would say EATING at least 80% of magic that hits you is up there, too
