I can't say there's a race I don't like playing as since all of the races are generally interesting in DA (even dwarves, who are usually little more than Tolkien tropes).
But I'll admit that when it comes to male characters, I favor the more attractive races (human and elf) while with female characters, I favor the more alien races.
With male characters, I favor good looking, model type characters (or somewhat gritty but still attractive), so I'm more apt to pick human or elf. The Qunari may be a hit or miss and look too beastly in the CC while dwarf males are probably my least favorite. Short, squatty and overly hairy are not attractive to me in the slightest. I'll still roll at least one male Adaar and Cadash, but with male characters I'll probably see more Trevelyans and Lavellans. Shallow I know, but points for honesty yes?
With female characters, I generally like the 'weird, alien' races. Most female characters in fantasy settings (especially LIs) tend to be human, so having a female character that is outside that trope fits well with me. I like what I saw with the female Qunari in the demo and I think fem-dwarves are sorely underrated. A short, badass woman slicing her way through bad guys a foot or taller than she is just awesome. (I think it really was Aimo that sold me on them). And female elves go without saying. I don't dislike female human characters (definitely will have at least one Fem Trevelyan), but I favor the other races more, especially since I'm less concerned about them looking 'hot' or 'pretty' since most CCs allow for good looking female characters regardless her race. Its usually the male CCs that I worry about (Divinity Original Sin, DC Universe, Champions Online, etc..., would be nice to make a male character that doesn't look like a square jawed action figure or hulking beast).
Will still have a character of each race/gender combo just because. ![]()
