Centaur. So when I get swiftness I can yell, "I can outrun a human!"

Nah, you would shout that anytime there is a human without swiftness within 900 range of you.

 

And Tengu.

While I doubt it will ever happen(nor am I saying it should) but I'm just curious which races would you like to see become playable and why

There have been plenty of threads on behalf of this topic. My favorites remain the same:

  1. Dwarve
  2. Tengu (though, looking at the new models in EoD, I'm officially withdrawing that request😣)
  3. Kodan
  4. Centaur

Tengu by a long shot, followed by Skritt, and then Naga. (I don't think there's been any fantasy RPG that's allowed you to play a snake-person. Various reptilian humanoids, yes, but none that actually have a snake lower body.)

Wellll ... in Horizons (now Istaria) you could play an actual dragon.  Start at hatchling, go through long quests to grow up to ancient.  And you got to buy lairs instead of housing plots.

In GW2, yeah, been discussed to death (along with the many technical and game design reasons why ANet probably won't/can't implement it).  But in this extremely hypothetical case, I like Tengu and Skritt the most for the RP potential.

Agreed.  No.

Also, topic has been discussed quite a lot.   Please use the forums search feature.

 

Sorry Kharmin, someone already suggested that race.

Elder Dragon that can shape shift into other races.

... oh wait we can just use tonics instead lol.

I do not see it happen. Would annoy people whose race did not get added and would mean more work to adapt the armor skins.

sure it's been discussed but I see no reason why not to see what people have to say this time maybe someone thought of something recently and would like to speak their minds

Dwarves, ogres, risen.

Idk why some people didnt like the idea xd risen race would be pretty dam cool, and its about time to steal something from wow:d 

Also why people are so agaisnt new races... "It would be too much work for them". So according to them its better just do nothing..? What is up with people giving anet excuses "if its hard to make, they shouldnt do it at all"...

I am quite sure battle tonics like kodan were released, cuz anet doesnt want to add new playable races. 

Id like to see seer, kodan (customisation is the key :), largos, djinn and forgotten (or at least krait). Seer/largos more than the others on a list tho.

That's not the reason or excuse.  It's more due to lore.

Skritt. Your character would be three skritt that do things in tandem. One holds the main hand weapon, one holds the offhand. Each one wears two different items of your six armor pieces.

There was another MMO that did this with one of their races.

Also, Krait. We’ve seen good versions off all the other “bad” races I can think of, except for Krait. I’d like to encounter some good Krait, and be able to play one.
