    Humans, they are just puny Norn with no sense of glory.


    I actually voted for Azura, mostly because it isn't spelled correctly but also because they have weird looking feet.

    Fully agree with this. I personally enjoy every single race in the game. They all have unique flavors, and they all have unique flaws that I despise. (I still think the Norn are too cliche)

    If I had to vote one as being my least favorite, I'd definitely say Asura, but I don't have any particular dislike for them. I just like the others more. I certainly do have a great love for their personality, as it can be fun, but their personality is also part of why I like the other races better. Narcissism gets a little old after a while.
    I hope you haven't forgotten my role in this little story. I'm the leading man. You know what they say about the leading man? He never dies.

    If you give in to your impulses in this world, the price is that it changes your personality in the real world. The player and character are one and the same.

    I have to go with the lazer midgets. The plant and cat people are almost as bad, but they don't have crazy tech that is just so out of place.

    Asura. Never really liked small cutsey races. Give me the boring old Human everytime.

    They're not always dull. Let's not pretend as if many non-human races don't end up just being humans in a monstrous husk. Charr are very industrial and technologically advanced as well as heavily influenced by the Roman military. All of which are traits quite easily associated with humans in the real world. The same can be said of Norn, who are very heavily influenced by Nordic culture and stereotypes. As much as I enjoy playing exotic races, very few are actually all that inspiring and unique - most tend to just be based on a mix of various aspects of past and present human cultures.

    They're anything but cutesy. You need to do some research here!

    Flummox is pretty much your standard Asura personality. Harsh of tongue, extremely condescending, and quite shrewd.

    “Flummox, are you awake?” said Sareb.

    “Do I look awake?” said the asura, popping open one eye.

    The male sylvari watched the artificer sternly, as if suspecting a trap. At last he nodded. “Yes.”

    “Then I must be awake.” Flummox let out a deep, frustrated sigh. “Why aren’t we moving?”

    “There’s a problem.”

    “The wagon is not moving, it is cold outside, and you’ve awoken me from my nap,” said Flummox, propping himself up on his elbows, one eye still closed in desperate hope. “I can guess there is some form of problem. Now tell me, my young sylvari, what is the problem?”



    Basically, try to imagine that the entire race is based off Tyrion Lannister.

    Crazy tech being out of place? Well there are plenty of muskets and magic all about, I suggest you look up the term "steampunk".

    Amazing sig, done by mighty Lokann

    I voted for Charr. They just don't appeal to me. I've never been a fan of beastly races lol

    Agreed! I'm fine with the other races, but the Asura .. I doubt I'll roll one at all.
    I am a filthy casual!

    That's tough. If I had to choose one, however, it'd probably be the norn/humans. Not that I dislike either of them.

    Norn. Although not as bland as Humans, they just seem.. Uninteresting in every aspect to me.

    I just don't get it, especially with you being from Alberta and all those beautiful mountains, how can you not identify somewhat with the Norn?
