Think about it, in real life, some people are tall, some people are short. However, in Skyrim, everyone ranges slightly shorter than average to slightly taller than average. I just think this is unrealistic. I mean, sure, height is always based off of race and gender, which isn't how it works in real life, but it still added more diversity to the population.

I mean, especially because sometimes it is hard to differentiate between a nord, an imperial, and a Breton and height added some diversity between those races

I remember being absolutely super tall compared to others in morrowind as altmer. that was a cool touch indeed.

I like being an altmer and and being really short in first person, then going to third and realizing I'm taller than everyone. It doesn't make sense lol

I remember in Morrowind how much shorter the Bosmer (Wood Elves) were to me. It doesn't help the fact that I was an Altmer (High Elf). Even in Oblivion they seemed to be taller. Bethesda seems to be making races same in height more and more every game that comes out.
