I hope that we still play as a human next game, I just feel it made Mass Effect special. That we are put in the perspective of the humans the newest species in the Galaxy as they carve a name for themselves.

Besides, we’re no longer the newest species in the galaxy and we’ve already carved a name for ourselves.

Why would it not make sense? And of course DAI would brush it aside, because what does it matter if an elf is in a relationship with a qunari or whatever. Because I don't believe in sexless relationships. Why wouldn't they be able to have sex?

Because I don't believe in sexless relationships. Why wouldn't they be able to have sex? Elves tend to be smallish. The anatomy of bulls... their penises can be like 2-3 feet in length. (Had to look up the actual details.) That's not even realistic for a full-sized human but even worse for a smaller elf.

That's not even realistic for a full-sized human but even worse for a smaller elf. You can be surprised what people can handle with enough practice, lubrication and patience. Judging from some of the porn I've seen.
Also not all love making has to be penetration, or full penetration...
This is a weird discussion.

To be honest, I found the focus on humans, paired with "humans are spechiulz" to be kinda dull. I guess I expect at bit more form sci-fi than just some vague allusion to U.S. military in space. That's also probably the reason why I never got all that hype about 'umanity first!!!1 and assorted cults.

I think a fine compromise to reduce extra variance would be to only offer a single, multi-gendered race choice: human or (insert selection here). On the other hand, if I keep hearing arguments about writing problems and lack of depth, or sacrificing key features, I move for a story written completely from an alien perspective, and having the player character NOT be human at all. I think that would be more interesting anyway.

To be honest, I found the focus on humans, paired with "humans are spechiulz" to be kinda dull. I guess I expect at bit more form sci-fi than just some vague allusion to U.S. military in space. That's also probably the reason why I never got all that hype about 'umanity first!!!1 and assorted cults. I never got the vibe that "humans are spechiulz" in ME. In fact, humans were pretty much the underdog in Citadel politics. No one treated them that nicely. They had to fight tooth and nail for Council support. Also it was the Alliance military in space, not purely the US military.
Regardless, like Gileadan said playing an alien wouldn't be monumentally different to playing a human especially if again playing united with other races against a common threat/enemy.

humans are special. We have the best cook in the universe, the Honorable Mr. Rupert Gardener We have Samantha Traynor with the best looking teeth in the universe because she uses a Cision pro mach 4 toothbrush We have the best looking homeworld We have the best food We have the best entertainment. We have the best clothing. We have the best vacation spots We have Commander Shepard who destroyed the reapers and more. So it would make sense to play as a human. Playing as one of the other species, means you're not playing the best. Humanity #1 excellent.

While I have no interest in playing the alien races myself, the main thing that makes me think BioWare should stay away from it is that I have no confidence that they could do it in a way that would afford the player any kind of satisfactory flexibility in customization, dialogue, etc.. I still think Inquisition's implementation of it was pretty middling, and the races of Dragon Age are much closer to humans than a few of the aliens. Heck, they couldn't even get the Dalish to have an accent like the rest of their kind, instead having two vocal types to carry two races each. In the end, I think it would come down to just the big three: human, asari and turian, and that's it. Asari and turians are the most basic and I feel most accessible options out of all the aliens in the game, with the others likely being more costly than they'll end up being worth.

I can see the Council races (minus maybe Salarians) and the Quarians.

I'm torn on the issue. On the one hand, I love playing different races and role-playing characters with varying backgrounds. I've enjoyed it a lot in the DA series. On the other hand, the races in ME are so much more diverse... it's not about coming from a different country anymore, it's a different planet in a different starsystem altogether. I'm just not sure they can have all of these variations while making the story work (without watering down the whole point of having different races to begin with). If they have reason to think they can succeed in this aspect then by all means, I support them, otherwise I think they should thread a bit carefully for now. I would have loved smaller "spin-offs" where maybe we played as other races, but I don't think we'll ever see that sadly...

Besides all races being in the same position, there is more of an unified culture among them all with the big differences just being flavor since those are still in the Milky Way.

I hope so too, but I think they will limit races to the Council members and maybe the Krogan.
I doubt we will get to play as Geth, Quarians, Batarians, etc.
