same, i originally played as an Argonian but later went Nord in my second playthrough, and everything felt a lot more natural. suddenly I 'fit in' and had a real vested interest in the civil war
So how do the people of Windhelm feel after a Khajit or Argonian helps them claim victory against the Empire? Despite the fact most of them are xenophobic or just plain paranoid, there's no denying the skill Khajit and Argonians have, such as being stealthier or being able to breathe underwater. Those traits seem heavily undervalued, as they are good tactics for ambushing the enemy.
Well in our historical account, they would likely acknowledge their add in the war. But would be still consider 2nd class citizens, in my view Nords only accept others races if they are deemed trustworthy because having an glories honorable life is what their always striving for.
I mained as an Argonian back in the day and chose Stormcloak because I felt they were the underdog. also lived in the Windhelm house for a time instead of Whiterun. The Guards are never especially appreciative about it far I can tell except some Stormcloak captains in the war rooms who refer to you by your title 'skull crusher. ice blood'. whichever title is given to you in the civil war questline.
Here is a fun fact: If you play as an Imperial and talk to Vunwolf (Think thats how you spell it) Snow Shod in Riften he will say "Be brief Imperial theres only so long i can stand your stench" And when you exit conversation he will say "Imperial bastard" (He said that to my character so i just killed him lol)
they really are not the only ones and can you really blame the fucking Thalmar would love nothing more than to commit genocide on everyone so yea don't blame for it lol

I really shouldn't read the comments all of you are cringe. I suggest you play the older Tes games before commenting anything stupid.. You think being called Cat/elf/lizard is the worst thing tes has to offer?
it isn't the worst TES has to offer, no, but Bethesda seemed to want to define Stormcloaks vs. Imperials and 'balance things out' as it were. Imperials being not-racist (or not nearly AS MUCH) but allowing Thalmor into cities and such, greed, etc, vs the Stormcloaks who are racist nationalists (note: I'm well aware how much worse the Dunmer are) who want to be free of a corrupt and dying empire, even if they're potentially just as bad. yes, there's far worse things than Skyrim's racism but it was designed that way to make you choose a side.

Shouldn´t you be denied acess to cities as a.khajit. The roaming khajities says that they have to camp outside due to not being allowed entrance for being khajits.
