Race-Specific City!!!!

The<strong> Node</strong> system is pretty good and different than others (eventhough the node system was used by other games, but not in this way). I wanted to know the node's that are developed from village to a city or a metropolis, will have all the types of races as a citizen or it is a race specific. I would personally like it to be race specific, as it will show different culture, diversity and the way the city is operated and their day to day life will be different from each other. There may be some cities which allow all the races as citizens, but i would like to see some cities with race specific, this will enhance the lore and the depth of the game.

1. <strong>If its race-specific how the game mechanics would work???</strong>

2. <em><strong>( i know its a lore kind and the studio didn't reveal anything about it, even though)</strong></em> <strong>Are the races are peaceful to each other or they have some clashes??</strong> (an dwarf would never like elves, and no race would be friendly to orcs, This is common in any lore you pick which has elves,dwarfs,orcs in it)

<em>I'm Sorry if someone already asked this question.</em>

    When nodes turn into towns, cities or metropolis the predominant race (that contributed node xp) will determine the racial style of the buildings. So a town might have a Orcish architecture at first but when it changes to a city it might change to Elven architecture if they contribute most xp to the node.

    The devs might let players choose one of four portals as their starting point, I believe its undecided at this stage. Without the choice the race you pick determines where you start but this might cut you off from friends who want to play a different race. Lore-wise I believe the civilization is in the early stages of development so it would be more immersive if you start in the city based on the race you pick. Traveling will be slower and more difficult so it would be an epic start of the journey to meet up with friends from a different race halfway across the map.

    I think the four portals, and each race will start from each portal is already decided. I remember it mentioning in one of the live streams. But yea, I believe race specific city will bring more immersion in the game
