I'm all for humanoid aliens since I can't think of an alien alien design that makes sense logically. Symmetry, head and hands are pretty mandatory.The aliens in Mass Effect had to conform to a humanoid shape for gameplay layout reasons (needs to sit on a chair, on a vehicle, draw weapons, run along). The visual artists had to ideate within the confines of that limitation, so most of the quirks came from leg shapes and torsos. Doesn't mean they can't make a hanar playable though.
Of course once you have a group in space for centuries you can have fun crazy designs due to low gravity, radiation and gene splicing.
