1.Wookiee, 2.Droid, 3.Mon Calamari, 4.Jawa, 5.Rodian, 6.Sullustan, 7.Trandoshan, 8.Quarren, 9.Duros, 10.Nogrhi
Dont forget Ithoriians...they need a place in the galaxy too

I think I have already voted on this thread, although as there have been so many similar threads I am not sure. However what I would like to know is if any dev's have seen this thread or the many like it and thought maybe it is time for an official poll. Could we not have an actual poll to see what the top 3 requested species are?

1.Wookiee, 2.Droid, 3.Mon Calamari, 4.Jawa, 5.Rodian, 6.Sullustan, 7.Trandoshan, 8.Quarren, 9.Duros, 10.Nogrhi

I understand some people like Cathar, and actually requested them, but this thread is more for those who didnt, and would like to throw other ideas out there.
I would love to see Togruta, Kel Dor, and whatever Kit Fisto is.

Chiss already don't work with at least one storyline (SI), I can't imagine droid working with any of the force using storylines (I'm sure there's some terribly written novel about a force using droid tho, to prove me wrong ), not do I see droid working with the Trooper storyline (tho the class seems fine).

I'm extremely disappointed with the choice of Cathar as a premium race and will not be purchasing it. Cathar have zero appeal to me. They are aesthetically repellant in every way, relatively unknown, and I in fact associate them with Thundercats and swords-and-magic fantasy games than I do Star Wars; as I suspect many others do.

What in the hell were they thinking? Whatever big wig(s) ok'd or demanded this should get his(their) head out of his(their) rear(s).


*EDIT*
Also, I don't see a single valid point to EAWare's argument against alien species. There is zero language barrier in this game. I accidentally open a holocron of some long forgotten super-race that went extinct, and my character starts conversing with it without missing a beat. Whatever concession was stretched to make that possible can be applied to having playable alien races.

Shadowfire: Dregs - Spy | Ryuten - MPowers/MLS

The problem is less lore but more about to make facial expression work not to mmention amory. Alone for that Jawa will never work.
Aside of that Cathar are not that unkown as you may think and yes nobody forces you to buy them.
