    @metaltao Okay, I have fairly specific issues with this part of the game. It isn't that any of the races are "bad", just uninspired. Basically, for player characters, you have humans, which are humans, Awoken, which are blue humans, and Exo, which are android humans. They all look pretty cool, but they're still fairly generic archetypes.

    Then there are the enemies. So far in my playthrough, I've encountered the Fallen, which are fairly standard humanoid aliens, the Hive, which feel like ripoffs of Collectors from Mass Effect (both visually and mechanically), Vex, which are just these android things, and the Cabal, which look like humans in huge, bulky armor.

    Here's a picture so you get the idea http://rainbowdash.net/url/777757

    Now, it's not just their theme and appearance that bothers me, there's more to it [continued]
