Mildly irritated: So much discussion of alien protagonists, and yet no mention of the elcor

I think they are Dalish-only actually.
Whoops! You're right.
Interesting choice. I don't know if this means a retcon for Dalish accents. Or is that a second retcon?

I think what they really need to do is a white, caucasian muscular male as the main character. Break the mould, try something new.

Needs more buzz cut and steely eyes.

More gruff voice acting and staring off into the manly distance.

With resignation, no one cares about us.
Reluctantly conceding: An elcor PC might not be workable for an action RPG.

The basics:
-Human Male and Female
-Asari 'Female'
-Salarian Male (Females too rare)
-Turian Male and Female
What I'd like*:
-Quarian Male and Female
-Krogan Male and Female
What I'd hope for**:
-Geth Platform (whatever that would mean)
-Drell Male and Female?

*Yeah, I know they seem like they could go extinct, but I have my opinions about that.
**Yeah, I know its a stretch
, but I'd love to play either. Like, they're be my first or second characters, at least past a human one.
~~~
I wouldn't expect any other known civilized species to be playable then these 4-8.

I reckon BW should canonize the complete survival of every species anyway.

I agree with all those. I think a Geth platform would be... problematic, only in terms of emotional involvement. Of course a factor in determining whether the geth are capable of actual emotions or just simulating them could be how far in the future the next game is set. If synthesis is canon that negates my doubts, I guess.

There's only something like 100,000 drell in the entire galaxy. I could see them running into trouble trying to write a player character with perfect memory (people frequently talk about Shepard as a meathead, drell canonically remember everything).
That's a very good point.
A note though - I personally believe that Thane's flashbacks were due to his specifically traumatized and trained mind.
I'd accept having another Drell party member, tbh. But I still really want to play one.
Well, technically humans can become nearly extinct too
I reckon BW should canonize the complete survival of every species anyway.
I think they will. Just not in the way/for the reasons that most think. Whatever though, we'll see.

Yeah, it would be tricky. I'd be okay with a much more limited range of expression for a Geth PC though, as long as there's also some exclusive lines/actions in return.
I think they'd pretty much have emotion. It's down to whether the player would recognize geth to have genuine or natural emotion/intelligence. (I personally would)
I've no interest in a sequel where synthesis is canon.
I'll put it this way - I don't think green circuitry on everything and green glowing eyes, in peace with the Reapers, is canon for the next game.

Likewise. If I had to choose between it and a prequel, I might consider it the lesser of two evils, but it's still pretty damn evil.

Is there anyone who'd object to being a pirate, or pirate type character?

A smuggler or mercenary would be up my alley, so long as that life has to be left behind for a bigger plot.

Not a pirate, persay, perhaps more of a thief like Kasumi.
Someone who steals more for the thrill of it or some other reason, rather than a monetary one.
Ideal character though is a space archeologist... and lash is a default ability

- Press X to tase civilian.Is there anyone who'd object to being a pirate, or pirate type character?
- Access inventory
- Retrieve pacification implant
- Press X to jam pacification implant through skull and into brain
- Proceed to market
...I think I'll pass, thanks.
(For the record, the "pacification implants" are referred to, though not by name, by Talitha in the ME1 quest I Remember Me. "They put the metal to their backs, put the wires in their brains... you go too far, they take your brains away!")
(Also, "She doesn’t want to be here anymore. In the pen. In the cages. Lying quiet while they... do things to her!"
...F to the uck no.)
