Even though it's possibly that we actually will be able to play as other races than humans, it's not yet 100% confirmed.

 

If there was only humans to play and all other races were just npc's would you still play the game?

 

I would probably play it anyway but I would be dissapointed though!

Only humans, will you still play the game?

Yes!
No!
Not sure to be honest...

It's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all outta gum.

I'd play it still, it's a Bioware game!  I'd be very disappointed though.

Probably not. It would just be weird if all players were humans - and I found the human characters in the KOTORs really dull looking and not very interesting.

I can't stand single race games, but this game also has so much promise.  I would be undecided with an inclination to not play.  I recently tried Runes of Magic.  Aside from the game being too hardcore for my tastes, I really had a problem with everyone being human, especially in a fantasy setting.  On top of that, Star Wars is vibrant with alien life forms, it would be strange at best if there were only human PC's.

I want to be a Mon Calamari, and say "It's a trap!" incessantly.

There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

Maybe there won't be all humans, but I think the majority will be humanoid races, even if they're aliens. For instance, Mandalorians.

I'm sorry, did you say 'It's crap!'?

And give up any opportunities for racial tension? Forget it.

Only humans to play would make Jack a dull boy.

Variety is the spice of life, unfortunately, it's also the bane of balance.

I really wouldn't care since I'm gonna play a human regardless of what else they have.

Wouldn't care. Conan only has humans and it's never bothered me.

 I would still play it.

I'd actually respect Bioware for taking what would be such a controversial move lol  It would actually be a step toward keeping the feel of the movies since the main characters are all humans.   

But I think it's likely they will allow people to play the more humanoid races at least rather than face the slew of complaints from others that will result if they don't.

I'd play it, but I'd be very disappointed in Bioware, theres no reason not to include atleast 4 or 5 other races such as Mon Calamari, Bothan, Zabrak, Twilek, Rodians, heck even Wookies

Join me or die! Can you do any less?!

 The real question is would you play it if you can only play as Gungans?

 

But serioulsy, I'd be pretty dissappointed if humans were the only playable race. Sure, in Kotor you're character was a human, but at least you had twi'leks and wookies and droids in your party. Personally I think it's more fun to play as either a Rodian, Ithorian or Twi' Lek than as a human.

Mandalorians are not a race, they're a warrior culture.

Why try when you can give up?
