Technical you are all human and are bound by human aspects. What I mean is that even playing as another race you can only roleplay so far. If you are playing as a human it really is no different than an alien. Unless in real life you live in dnd.

The only difference is culture. Even humans have variety in culture. So from my perspective what is the big deal what race you play? How are dnd humans boring? They are better than regular humans and you have exciting opportunities to take part in and roleplay.

Seems to me the only boring thing is lack of imagination.
