I really don't want to see Wookies or Yoda's species -- the voice over will not fit at all and it would be ridiculous, IMO. For Wookies they could do Wookie garble with subtitles, but I think it would get annoying to have to constantly hear that garbling while questing.

There are some "humanoid" species that I'd like to see:
Cerean
Chagrian
Duros (maybe)
Devaronian
Nautolan
Togruta


Also Droid

First of all, it's Basic, not Standard.

Second of all, not one single person who's used that argument knows what they are talking about. Every time I read on the forums "this race can't speak Basic," I can think of at least one EU example of them doing so. And for those people who aren't EU fanatics, just use your brains. Could YOU say all the things a Jawa says? Yes. Therefore, a Jawa could say all the things you say. Ergo, a Jawa has the capability to speak Basic. Sheesh.

And even for the ones who really can't, that's not a problem. The Anomid, who are in this game, use voice synthesizers to speak basic. You're telling me it's beyond imagination that other races could use a similar technology? It's no more unbelievable than all of my characters being fluent in a dozen alien languages, including ancient and forgotten Rakatan.

So basically, your point is completely and totally invalid on every level.
Right, except that the devs said it wasn't going to happen despite all your rationalizing. It's not only the ability to speak basic, but they don't want any race in the game that people can't easily relate to (i.e. anything not very close to human looking, or anything with substantial clipping issues). And they don't give us any credit at all as to what we can relate to.
