If I do get the game.
Orc: Charging into battle clad in the heaviest of armors in a blood crazed frenzy while swinging a mighty weapon to cleave opponents asunder.

So many options, yet not sure which is the better to start with as a beginner to ESO. It looks like it will more than likely be trial and error.

There is no real better, all depends on playstyle an most of all what you like to play. None of the racial benefits are important enough to go for a race you would otherwise dislike.
I'm probably going for Wood Elf or Breton or Nord, as for alliance I will pick whatever others pick.

http://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextrali ... ial+Skills That will actually tell you what each Race gets skill wise. Helpful if you are someone who wants to min-max.

Ever since i started playing Elder Scrolls, iv always ran an Argonian, love my amphibious people. And since i'll be running heals, there racials just support my heals.

I too have always played an argonian in every elder scrolls game. I think of it as playing a grand family lineage throughout the history of tamrial. And with this character I start that lineage

I plan on running a Sorcerer w/ healing off spec via resto staff weapon swap. I enjoy range dps classes but want to be able to help in parties, hopefully the additional heals from a restoration staff weapon swap will be a good contribution.
Alliance: the Cohhilition- because I'll be getting the explorers pack I can be any race/alliance mix, I plan on picking the alliance everyone else is playing.
Race (hard choice here): Breton - light armor and magica bonus, spell resist passives
Dark Elf - magicka & stam bonus, fire resist passives and added fire dam bonus
High Elf - destro staff and magicka bonus, elemental damage passives
Argonian - resto staff and healing received bonus
Those are my options if I pick based on useful abilities. Unfortunately I almost always play as Redguard in Elder Scroll games, and I like the elf abilities but I'm not a fan of playing elves. So for the race at this point, Undecided is my answer. Hopefully I'll figure it out in the next few weeks.
What I do know for sure, the next beta weekend can't get here fast enough and I'm truly excited for the finally release.
