The Sylvari's story is perhaps the most engaging in a different sense. Their origin from the Pale Tree and their relationship with the Dream of Dreams is very unique. They are like newborns in a world full of history and danger. Their journey to understand their purpose, their connection to the other races, and the threat of the Nightmare Court all combine to make a story that is full of mystery and wonder.
For me, it's the Dunmer. Their homeland of Morrowind has a long and tragic history. From the eruption of Red Mountain to their exile and the complex religious and cultural beliefs they hold. The Dunmer have a strong sense of identity and pride, which often leads to conflict, both internal and external. Their relationship with the Tribunal Temple, the Daedra, and other races is full of drama and mystery, making their story one of the most engaging in ESO.
The Orlans. They are a race of small - statured people, but their stories are big. Their history of being oppressed in some areas and their fight for equality and recognition makes for a very engaging narrative. They have unique cultural elements like their music and dance that are also tied into their story.
Well, the Human story is quite good too. Humans have a long history in Tyria. They have lost their once - great kingdoms but are still a force to be reckoned with. Their story is about survival, about holding on to their traditions and values in a world that has changed so much. They have to deal with political intrigue, religious beliefs, and the ever - present threat of other races and dark forces. It's a story full of depth and complexity.
The Half - Elves. They are a blend of two races, and this often leads to a sense of not fully belonging anywhere. In the story of Baldur's Gate 3, this can be explored in many ways. For example, they might have to choose between the cultures of their human and elven sides, or they could be shunned by both. This inner conflict and the search for identity can create a very engaging story as you progress through the game.
The Halflings can be a good pick for an engaging story. They may seem small and unassuming, but their tenacity and community - centered values can lead to some heartwarming and interesting story arcs. Their relationship with other races, especially the larger ones, can be full of humor and charm.
Well, the Sylvari race has an amazing story too. They are a race of plant - like beings. Their story involves their awakening, their connection to the Dream of Dreams, and their discovery of the outside world. It's a story of growth, both literally as they are plants, and figuratively as they learn about the world and their place in it. They also have a darker side with some of them being corrupted by nightmare forces which adds depth to their story.
In Guild Wars 2, the Sylvari race has a really fascinating story. Their origin is unique as they are plant - based beings. They woke up in the Grove with a connection to the Dream of Dreams, which gives their story a mysterious and otherworldly feel. Their struggle to understand their place in Tyria, between the light of the Dream and the corruption that threatens them, makes for a great story.
I think the City Elf Rogue is really engaging. City Elves are oppressed in the game's world. As a Rogue, you can use your skills to fight back against that oppression. You can steal from the rich nobles who look down on you and your people. Your skills also come in handy when exploring the city and finding out secrets that are related to the main story, like the secrets hidden in the alienages.
I'd say 'The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim'. The story is super engaging as you start as a prisoner who turns out to be the Dragonborn. You have to face the return of dragons and decide the fate of Skyrim. There are countless side - quests that add to the overall lore and make the world feel alive. It's a world full of magic, ancient ruins, and different races with their own stories.
The Kyrian's story is really engaging too. You see the different aspects of their society, from the Ascended to the Aspirants. The journey of a soul becoming a Kyrian, and the trials they have to face, along with the overarching theme of their purpose in the grand scheme of Shadowlands, makes it a really good story.
