I would expand on the extinct terran races with Talocans, Yan Jung and Takmahl.
They are fairly alien too.


^Seconded, especially if Talocans aware involved.

Any new playable race will need consistency with other playable races. We're talking ship classes (T1, faction,T2, T3 and maybe even pirate), weapons, e-war etc and these ships would need their own unique feel when compared to other races. This is a huge task considering existing races already encroach upon eachother in certain areas. It's a balancing nightmare.

You have to do this because It's not a new race if it doesn't have its own ship tree, its just another faction like sansha or angels. These are not playable races.

Maybe you should just ask for some more faction ships and some body sculpting options in the nex store.

My sentence can be shortened in two words - "Create a new alien race, for which you can create a character for any player." The rest is a fantasy of developers. I would like to see this in any guise, I think for developers it's an interesting task and to come up with a story, types of ships and weapons, a kind of specification for the ships (like the Amarr neutralizers and the nosferatu charge of the drive, the Caldari "reset targets," Minmatar "what they do ?! Signature and entanglement increase "and Gallente dumping and drones), new territories and social component are not so difficult actually.
