I'd recommend you to make alts and check it out, Gryneth. Even if you have a subscription allowing one character, it's one character per server, so if it's just for testing you can make a character on a different server and check it out. People can give you some feedback but sometimes small things can make the difference on how much you like a particular race.

Plus now that you can skip the whole first cutscene, making an alt won't take you 2 minutes.
