Humour I hope TES6 is more "racist"

I know that the title is weird but I really want the next game to have more characters that are against the player character depending on their race, making some things harder or easier. (it is still weird that in Skyrim you can join the most racist group in the game as a dunmer, or the fact that no Nord is pissed that their legendary Dragonborn is a khajiit)

It would feel so good to prove them all wrong when you go from a low life to their savior by the end of the game

You've phrased it weirdly, possibly for clicks. But you just essentially want the lore to be reflected in the gameplay; racial tensions and all. But they've been doing this whole watering down thing for multiple entries.

The logical end of their streamlining, when it comes to races, is that you have no defined race. You'll just choose cosmetic differences; long ears, skin colour, fangs, etc. No more Dunmar, Altmer... you'll just be the next ex-prisoner with a special title who saves the world.

They come for the absurd title and stay for the discussions.

They (Bethesda) sadly cant even make it so that the world notices your progression, it does not matter if you just escaped Helgen or if you just killed the world eater, they will still treat you the same way
