Hello Everyone if you havent already there is a poll talking about the profession that you will play here:
This poll will focus on the Races of Guild Wars 2 and its kind of a hype to express your feelings about the race you want to play. So what race will you want to play? and why?!
P.S. if you wish to choose (all of the professions) choose undecided which generally means that your undecided on picking a particular race to play because you want to play all of them.

I voted Charr, guess I am the one vote, but Sylvari is a close second. I will probably make one of each, I am a two alt kind of guy.
Im going to make an asura because they are intuitive geniuses and have a little kick in their attitudes for a short race
Human...just because of GW1, and because I like the style of the race
That said, I plan to make an alt charr engineer, and the Sylvari do interest me - they seem like a slightly different take on elves - much like the Aldryami of RQ2 (happy days a long time ago...)
Where's the option for 'all of them'? I'm not undecided, I've decided I'll play every one!
I felt like I should have put "all of them" but I felt like majority people would pick that because I know I would lol.
All of them? I don't focus on a single race, I try permutations til I find something that grabs me.
If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.
I plan on playing all the races eventually. First one is going to be a sylvari though. Then charr, then asura, then human and norn.
Do you want some cheese with that whine?
Asuran Engineer hands down for me.
Need to have muliple choices!!!!
First toon... Charr Engineer but am extremely stoked over the Sylvari but just can't see a Syvari Engineer. Prolly a Necro or Warr Sylvari for the second toon. And something Norn... prolly a guardian. Asura I'll pass on, humans... eh played humans a long time in WoW and with SWTOR as my time killer till GW2/TSW which just has humans reskinned for races, I'll prolly go ape shit if I played another human in an MMO anytime soon.
voted human, but once again, I'll play every choice.
All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick.
I get banned in the forums for games I love, so lets see if I do better in the forums for games I hate.
I enjoy the serenity of not caring what your opinion is.
I don't hate much, but I hate Apple© with a passion. If Steve Jobs was alive, I would punch him in the face.
From what I've seen so far, all races look good. So I'll probably decide when I'll see char creation screen.
MMORPG genre is dead. Long live MMOCS (Massively Multiplayer Online Cash Shop).
silvari & asura
Norn, baby!!
Wolf form all the way!!
Sylvari!
I want to reborn as a Sylvari.
+1
Hrm, looks like the charr are going to be least chosen by popular vote. That's kind of awesome, since not only do the stand out as the most visually striking and unique (none of the other races runs on all fours, for one), but they won't be homogenised by an overabundance of them.
"Oh, another human. Oh, another asura. Oh look, a charr!"
:P
It's pretty neat, really.
Charr no doubt. Kinda interesting how popular humans are in mmo's tho
Asura.
Good things come in small packages :P
CHARR!!!! I will kill you all!!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! err.... MEEEEEEEOOOOOOOWWWW!!!!!
I chose human though I may play a sylvari alt.
Human Guardian, Charr Engineer, Norn Warrior, Asura Guardian again(Since Racials and animations will make them different in gameplay), and Sylvari well I'm still thinking, it's between Ranger,Thief, and Memser but who knows, I mean mesmer seem feminine but the proffesion has "gangsta" abilities IMO.
I voted Hu,am because that'll be the first race I start with and yea I'll be an altaholic for the first time in my MMO career, I felt that ever since I got to play at PAX that I'd end up being an altaholic ha ha.
I might get banned for this. - Rizel Star.
I'm not afraid to tell trolls what they [need] to hear, even if that means for me to have an forced absence afterwards.
P2P LOGIC = If it's P2P it means longevity, overall better game, and THE BEST SUPPORT EVER!!!!!(Which has been rinsed and repeated about a thousand times)
Common Sense Logic = P2P logic is no better than F2P Logic.
It's great to see a nice balance between the races, though I have to say the sylvari has surprised me
Same. Before I saw the results I was expecting Human and Charr to dominate the poll, but thankfully it's a lot more evenly distributed than I expected.
I'm easily most interested in playing a sylvari, but the profession I most want to play is mesmer (hands down, no question, nothing beats the purple pain). But my original main from GW1 was a human mesmer and I kind of feel it's necessary to continue the bloodline from one game to another. If I ever get involved in RP, I'll have an ancestor and some historical context all set. It's not strictly rational, but I've been envisioning my GW2 mesmer for years as a human descendant. I'm just going to have to go with it.
That being said, I'll probably start a sylvari character very quickly and run them both in tandem. The sylvari fascinate me and I don't think I can wait a few months to retire my first character before exploring their lore.
Asura FIRST! because i be likin them Pecks
The truth may be puzzling. It may take some work to grapple with. It may be counterintuitive. It may contradict deeply held prejudices. It may not be consonant with what we desperately want to be true. But our preferences do not determine what's true.
