What are the most interesting video game races?
I thought halflings were just hobbits.
>>738549535midgets
Orcs with guns, preferably the pig variety >:)
>>738549635I thought hobbits were just midgets
>>738549535this doesn't make any sense
>>738549535I thought halflings was just the fantasy term for mutt, where they're usually half human and half some other race.
Kobolds :)
>>738549535Those geometric shape aliens from Endless Space 2
>>738549635>>738549735>>738549886It's a concept made up by the author. Come on, have some imagination.
>>738550012Riftborn?
>>738549635Halfling as legally-distinct hobbits because the creators were afraid of getting sued by the Tolkien estate if they called them hobbits
>>738550035they're free to make up any kind of race they want but it seems stupid to completely change something while keeping the same name
>>738549535What real life ethnicity is like this?
>>738550086Eminently fuckable.
>>738550035It's a fun concept, but it is confusing when the author uses a name for the fantasy race, that people already have an idea in their head what that name is.Should have called it a "shapeling" or something instead.
>>738549535Centaurs
>>738550121But the concept is based on playing with the name itself.
>>738549535Dwarf but wearing the elf's clothes
>>738550213smaeterbokken
War Wind had some out there races like these creatures made up of vines and shrubs.
>>738550221Horse pussy?Also that's one hell of a horse tail to be made into a thick braid like that. How does she even braid it?
>>738550308I don't think that would be a good name, no.
>>738550340Slaves.
>>738549535The ones with the biggest boobies.
>>738550157whites
>>738549535Elf with dwarf's hair for me, would mating press and marry>>738550012>>738550169Based, but for me it's Deuyivans, same as above
>>738550035the portrayal suggests they start off as ordinary humanoids, but actually are some sort of fae shapeshifters, but then treat that existence like selecting a vocation
>>738550121Well I'm sorry but Halflings are honestly the shittiest race.>Oh they're short peopleAnd?>... They're short people!Nobody plays as a fucking halfling, nobody gives a shit. Even IRL halflings like the fucking latinos at least have the cultural aspects of thuggish bravado, peacocking, and flaying people alive for shock value.>UM BUT THEY DON'T WEAR SHOES THAT'S CULTURALThe fucking Stoor Hobbits DO wear shoes.There is literally nothing lost by someone trying to make Halflings interesting.>>738550157Asian.Nothing is funnier than watching an Asian who grew up in the hood trying to act like he's anything but an even gayer version of a wigger.
>>738549535big shitbrick house race that is extremely intelligent and peaceful
>>738549886Oh, guess they really are midgets. I always thought they were an excuse to have a mix of diluted racial bonuses while suffering from negative social/charisma checks because of their impurity.
>>738550121>>738550213But literally everything does that. Tolkien reimagined elves and dwarves since they had tons of conflicting stories about them, D&D halflings don't have pointy ears but the lithe (not portly) gnomes do (and Pathfinder is the opposite), Warhammer made orcs green, Final Fantasy elves are tall, dark, strong and clumsy, One Piece dwarves are cute tiny nature-loving people with pointy noses and fluffy tails - this is normal.
>>738549735Dopplers?>>738549535Designed a race that can live on a jupiter 10. This must be how god feels.
>>738549886Halflings are a Tolkien creation. And they are just called 'halflings' because they are half the size of humans, not for any other reason. That's the origin. Same thing in Dungeons and Dragons.Some fantasy authors have made 'halfling' a term for a half-human half-something. Which was the case in the Sword of Shannara series I believe. But that isn't the general case.

>>738550221Devs are cowards, I'm afraid. I refuse to believe you can't animate the Player interacting with a Centaur Companion.
>>738549535Why does elf version turn her into a hooker?
>>738551604You know why.
>>738552204>elflings immediately become humanlings because they adopt elves intense desire for big human cock
>>738550213No don't do that. The name sounding good is more important than whether it's "correct". That's how you get "early griffin gets the worm" bullshit. It's not how languages work.
>>738550157jews, except they're parasitic and will eventually try to kill you
>>738549535Elminage original, translated the halfling race as hotlet, and I really liked that interpretation.

Any ideas for a playable gnoll race?
>>738549535Anything that isn't yet another human look-alike that thinks, acts, and has similar culture to humans.
>>738553439>>738553459It's just slop.
>>738551227Sword of Shannara ruined it by making it a far future post-apocalyptic Earth, based on its ties to Knight of the Word series. And this from a fuck who liked both series.
>>738553545Anbennar has cool playable gnolls but theyre unredeemably evil 99% of the time
>>738549535This is a pretty cool concept and an interesting twist on the usual 'halflings love to wander so they're literally everywhere as minorities' thing. I like it.
>>738553545Spotted hyenas IRL have powerful jaws and digestive acids to devour anything. Gnolls can consume magical items 'raw' (Meat from slain monster or tonics) to gain their power, with some drawbacks. The gnoll meta would be a mana substance abuser.
>>738554098Shannara series was just way too obviously based on Lord of the Rings. I didn't really care that not-Gandalf found a bunch of compact discs because at least that wasn't something that happened in LotR.
>>738549535this is retarded trash
>>738549535That's a cool take on halflings.
>>738551270male or female childhood friend?
>>738551401>Dwelf>EarfWhat are her traits?
>>738549535Change halfling with changeling
>>738551270
>>738553439
>>738555932Alas, her dark secret is revealed.
>>738551401sex with pic related
>>738550035okay but modify the concept to them changing physically based on the cum they ingest and I'll be using my imagination then
>>738558706Are you reposting or are you actually /here/?
>>738549535Wouldn't this make them both THE most racist and most anti-racist race of all time? Everyone would either be>disgusting, I don't want to ever be like them, purge them allor>you know what? I'm so tolerant of them I will BECOME them

>>738558980reposting
>>738549535Any games with actual rpg stuff like this? Preferably with not hyper real retard graphics like baldursshit3
>>738554492In some ways yes, but Elves aren't nearly as long-lived or all-knowing and "angel-like" in Shannara and in fact are more of the D&D woodsie motherfuckers. Also at least Shannara and Knight of the Word are willing to have bad shit happen to main characters and the world at large constantly. Does get old when it all goes post-apocalyptic in the Knight of the Word books. Also almost no one that isn't the not-Gandalf and demons have proper access to magic.
>>738549535This is a neat concept for halflings>>738558778The dragon thing is where it gets kinda deviantart cringe.
>>738549535the halfling elf is literally begging to be raped
>>738560254No, for some reason western rpg setting have to be fuck ugly when they make games, making cute stylized graphics is not something the wrpg devs care for.
>>738558778for me its flower>have bad allergies
>>738560612Yes that would be them adapting to become more elf like
I hate western rpg devs, make good looking games retards

>>738561124>want games to look good and not weird uncanny crap>must be porn addictYou are a brainlet, im glad you enjoy uncanny slop, heres some more examples of why you are a retard.
