+1 while i dont think theyll be available at launch or during ea i think we are likely to see them at some point for some of the reasons others have mentioned on this thread (ie mods ultimately if larian doesnt). i personally think that the more racial options the better, especially planetouched given the whole tutorial of the game is spent jumping planes, battling with mindflayers and gith in hell, and would only increase the 'replayability' aspect of the game. i also wouldnt be surprised if goblins, bugbears and the like get added at some point too - but again likely via the modding community, so i only hope that larian gives the community the tools needed to more easily make such things happen
