Rayge 689 Report post Posted June 27, 2012 whatever character you want, it actually doesn't matter at all. Some have beneficial racials, but they are only orcs for melee and high elves for magic. Otherwise it's just a choice of preference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted June 27, 2012 it's a good start though for a new player to the series... it's best to pick a race that caters to your style of play to help you with choosing what to level, and to provide an instant boost to those skills starting out...

ViceMan 1380 Report post Posted June 27, 2012 I started with a Dark Elf who didn't turn out to be much of anything; he was versed in magic, melee and ranged weapons, and also quite a thief. The hardest part I found as a new player was creating a convincing name as i'd never played any ES games before. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stoic Person Eater 159 Report post Posted June 28, 2012 I downloaded the DLC on Tuesday, but I haven't had the time to play it. I haven't even booted Skyrim up in months, even to mess with the Kinect features I bought the fucking Kinect for. Right now I am knuckle deep in Lollipop Chainsaw.

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted June 28, 2012 Haven't played Fallout in ages, played this last night. Just seems more appropriate at this point. Maybe Fallout 4 will be announced by the time I hit 4000. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mekstizzle 25 Report post Posted June 29, 2012 So a few days ago I accidentally deleted my level 34 Dark Elf, not to worry though, as this time around I've decided to heavily mod the game for a new playthrough as a Breton (this time siding with the Stormcloaks, and generally being much more of an asshole) This mod with a new playthrough, almost like you're playing a completely new game.
