They even make a point to highlight the different DNA composition between the races and how that would effect food consumption.
They're all six foot tall sexually dimorphic bipedal humanoids that you can have sex with and who can use the same armor and weapons as a human but because of something that has no bearing on gameplay and is never mentioned outside of the codex Bioware is making an effort?

Pedantic nerd shit, who cares? Look at the krogan and try to tell me that they're identical to humans because they can stand on two legs and you can equip the same armor type on them in ME1, which is clearly just a gameplay concession.
Fucking gypsies Quarians.
Attention citizens of The Citadel, understand that when a Batarian rapes and enslaves your daughter he is just doing what he is supposed to culturally.
 
I do? And apparently you do as well, because you just tried to tell me that Bioware made an effort with their alien races because they "highlight[ed] the different DNA composition between the races and how that would effect food consumption."
Given how Mass Effect fandom eventually devolved into Which Alien Should I Bang Today in a parallel to the Dragon Age fandom, such difference is also likely to trigger autoimmune reactions when body fluids are swapped. That can't be comfortable. Poor Dr Chakwas no doubt will have some "patient banged aliens and instantly regretted it" stories to share when you get her drunk enough.

Except you can't equip armor across all companions. Only your Alliance squadmates and Liara can wear regular armor. Krogan, turian, and quarian armor all have their own categories. In fact, it's considered a minor spoiler because you can find some of these armors as early as Eden Prime, possibly before you even know what a krogan or quarian is.

Armor isn't an issue in ME2 or 3, as neither use traditional inventory.

Mordin Solus outright warns a FemShep who is romancing Garrus to avoid swallowing.

Except that the Council races are all based as fuck and their response to the Hegemony getting hit by the Reapers is "Oh no! Anyway..." There's a reason the ME fandom has so many jokes about TBD floating around, too.

I really hope Bioware goes belly up before ME4 comes out. I don't want them to try and whitewash Batarians.
They have already buck-broken the Krogans in ME:A, it's only a matter of time before we see a bunch of Asaris holding signs that say "Batarians Welcome".

Doubtful. Instead we'll get a "Make Bataria Great Again" plotline with a forced sniping mission. Maybe the protagonist will say "I'm speaking" or "we're not going back."

Bioware's social justice warriors will not be able to resist the bait.
 
It's written in codex about batarians, that slavery is in their culture. Also, some broadcasts on Omega say the same

The biggest crime against writing that modern writers inflicted against media is that you can no longer have evil races. It's all been sanitised out as some form of "covert" racism that is just pure projection of irl ethnicities by those same faggots.

The end result is that there is no point of races, everyone is the same current year blob of modern character archetypes and the only ones allowed to be evil are white male humans and Elves.
 
white male humans
I decided to do a little trolling. At my expense, but trolling nonetheless. I allowed baldur's gate 3 to gather info about my game and always created white human males in my playtgroughs. It, of course, drowned in general statistics of races, played by players, but I did my part. Classes were - warlock with first, barbarian/warrior on second (this one I did with friend, sorcerer and last one was paladin/sorcerer with friend again

There's almost certainly no need for this trolling, because I'm sure we're not far from seeing -- if it hasn't already been published -- an article where the devs gnash their teeth over something like 75% of the player base rolling "Male Human Fighter." It happens like clockwork. For all the FemShep love in Mass Effect, I think over 80% of players rolled Male Soldier Shepards. You see it in game after game after game. The casuals do not give a wet shit about exotic options. They just want fightin' dudes.
 
That's something I'm often guilty of. I think the only major exception was Dragon Age Inquisition, where I rolled a mage.

I'm the sort of autist who enjoys multiple playthroughs of games (if a game has a reasonable number of character classes and I enjoy it, I like to do at least one run of each class), so I often go with "male fighter" for the first run just to see what the baseline is. Was an eye opener for Dragon Age for sure, because there's nothing quite like learning first hand from enemies just why mages are so terrifying in that setting.

It was also one of the few times I went with a non-human PC on a first run, because I'd already seen the Human Noble origin from a buddy of mine. I went Dwarf Noble just to see how different it was, and it remains probably my favorite origin.
