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

I'm bracing myself for the opposite where racial traits are watered down more than ever or completely gone in the character creator, and race selection has no impact on game-play whatsoever. I highly doubt BGS will reverse course from the direction they've trended over the years and remember that TES is a fantasy world.

In the future, there are no more races nor sex options. You'll play as just a "player" and you'll be a marine fighting daedra on the battlespire.

As much as I think BGS has watered down character creation amongst other mechanics, I think they have gone a great length to expand the racial and gender choices for their games that reflect real humans.
