Why would new features to the game ever be a bad thing? Unless they're shoved down your throat and unavoidable features that ruin the game, I see no problem with them.

As for new races, I'd like to see at least one new race eventually pop up into a future TES game.

I think Falmer or one of the Beast/Akavir races would be the most likely to be introduced. Also keep in mind there are many races we don't even know exist.

Its just the name of the topic another member put, I want the topic to go on however.
I want some Tang Mo

For now, bad idea. I reckon the TES series will eventually go to Akavir, and that is when we will see new races. IMO this won't happen until the series needs a reboot

I don't foresee any new races being implemented into this game. Perhaps a future game, but I'd find this add-on implausible otherwise.

For the sake of not being wishy-washy, I wouldn't mind seeing Snow Elves or Dwarves make a sudden appearance, but I have no idea how Beth would be able to smoothly introduce a race that is all but extinct or one that disappeared entirely.

Bad, unless it can somehow fit in with the lore.

Yes, snow elves or the dwemer would be quite the show.

Can't wait for snake people

for a future game, I can see the Falmer being a possibility, maybe the akavir as well, though not straight away, as it probably wouldn't make sense for the plot

I completly agree with the DLC, and I've stated it before. I'm just trying to keep it like how the orignals topic was, and it was a blast talking about the Akvir and discussing plots on how Tosh Roka invading, and the Tang Moa. Also the Fox people. ( Lolz forgot there name)

Actualy there are alot of plot that could happen, and Im sure Bethesda has alot under there sleve.

As a playable race, that would be waaaaay to overpowered.

well, putting them in as a playable race for the first game that includes akavir would make it hard to write the plot. and to be honest, I doubt they are going to have the ability to include akavir in every game after that, so unless those races become REALLY friendly with the tamriel races and start coming over by the boatload I don't see them being included.

Oh pish posh, It would just need good programming, and imagine the reactions when you came into town, thats if they ever do make people react to your race.

it would be interesting, but lore and story wise would make absolutely no sense, and these games are all about the lore and story.

True, maybe only limiting it to like the Tang Moa, they don't have to put all the races playable.

It'd be a killer gift though, like beast form, or Vampire Lord!

im still waiting to see some sload.

but what about that dremora you meet in the collge of winterhold that has been traveling tamriel for ages? im sure there are more like him, beth just never touched on it too much.

Me too
Also including what I previously said, I don't want to play as Snow Demons anyway!

If we go to Valenwood in the next game, I'm hoping to see the Igma be a playable race.

Its like whats been said in this thread already, we shouldn't be able to be part of a race that only has a few known, unique members as it would not fit in the game all too well.

Then they could slowly start to mix them in over time, so maybe in a few games from now, its possible.

Yes, but I wouldn't like the idea of being one though. Shaving my self, then puting powder on me seems weird.

I'm not particularly chomping at the bit to play as them myself, but the option would be welcome. Also, I just want to see their society and how they would react to you. Of course, that means Bethesda would have to have several dialogue options for the Igma so that they'd svck up to you if you were an Altmer and look down on you if you were a Nord or other human race. I wonder how they'd react to Bretons...

I would be cool if you get an Igma folower who looks, and dresses like you if you are an Altmer.
