    Thanks! And please, feel free to comment on the "First playable race" thing, if you happen to know the answer or are willing to give it. Is is just a typo? Or perhaps the humans are still not suitable for release in to the wild just yet?

    I think speculation is fun though. :)

    You've already seen the "human" race, this just meant the first, non-looks-like-us race that is suitable for public consumption. AFAIK, you'll be able to play a "human." (It just makes logical sense from a storytelling standpoint. You want a character who you can relate with to be a protagonist.)

    And with that, the mystery is solved, and the case... closed. Though I have to say, I might be an oddball in this, but I'd rather prefer to play a rather "less human" race; something that is not myself, since I play games in a feeble attempt to remove myself from real life and all. So yeah; keep up the good work, and I'll be sure to save you some punch!

    YYYEAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

    Also I'm sure StarBound will let you play as a human. It would be weird if they didn't.

    No, humans and apes are already confirmed, however, by first they mean the first they feature, which means ther'll be a lot more than 3!

    I assumed they meant the first of the playable races that we would be talking about.

    I mean, we already knew humans and "apes" would be playable right?

    Maybe the human look is just some holo disguise to get all the other bipedal races to like you more (not sure why they would like humans more)
    And you can look like an ape in a space suit to intimidate people.

    Meh, It really wouldn't matter to me. Its not like I play video games to be who I am. I wanna jump into someone elses shoes (The Game character) and be someone else for awhile, be it human, bird, alien, or robot. I don't think it matters.

    Maybe it's a MOnkey race... instead of apes.
