The bad thing there is that means Bioware has to make a new race to play as that's varied enough to create a somewhat customizable player character, something that is not the case with the other races. I mean think about it, save for Asari, the rest of the galactic races basically look the same from each other save for a few pallet swaps. On top of that, I doubt Bioware is going to not allow you play as a human, considering they've basically forced everyone to play ONLY as a human in Dragon Age for the past two games.
