On tonight’s Massively Massive Missive we spoke to the producer for Elder Scrolls Online with a shocking revelation, argonians are being removed as a playable race. This change is to coincide with the release of a race change token on the crown store. Once the tokens are made available, all players will then have to choose a new race upon login. This is what Firor had to say.

Firor: What can be done about the argonians? That question plagued our team since the inception of ESO. They are simply not practical to design around. Their heads are too large for making proper helmets and their tails bring large amounts of extra work to pant design.

Massively: But won't players be dismayed that they are losing an entire race?

Firor: Definitely not, and out data supports that. Besides, they will still be around like support characters. Kind of like Chewbacca. It is clear to us from our metrics that no one plays them anyways, and those that do clearly misclicked and will be relieved to have the free race change. No one would willingly choose the argonian racials, nobody.
