I realize we could just re-sprite the alien races to not look like Animal men. It'd be pretty easy, I imagine, and it might make a tad more sense then cat/lizard/squid/plant/bird men.
While I am attached to the design of some of the races, but there's nothing about any of them that needs them to be a animal person, or at least anything concrete. Rai could still be Rai if she had some sort of odd wing like growths on her back, was scaled, and has three tails, for example.
I am fully aware people will tell me I'm stupid, because they attached to our current sprites, but there's nothing stopping us from not having silly animal men walking around like this is Furrycon, or that because we have a limited amount of pixels and room to work with, this isn't really easy to do, but hey, mine as well throw it at the wall and see if it sticks.

The amount of liberty we can take here is rather limited. Short of a respriting of every single existing item of clothing, standard alien races will always retain an anthropomorphic appearance. And you could add extra characteristics, but that'd basically be like, Tajarans with wings, which is a no.
Also, anthropomorphic means human-like, so "anthropomorphic humans" is redundant.

Yeah be quiet, you. I'm tired.
And obviously, I meant to say animals. I'm stupid.
the main point was that, yes, we can add some inhuman extraneous bits and some variances on the design of "Cat man."
As said, you could just make them look like some kinda alien, not things that you'd find in a skyrim cave, which, almost every alien looks like it, except the Skrell, perhaps.

You forget about IPCs and now Kocasslani. While Unathi and Tajarans have very generic designs, they're by no means bad, simply bland.
I'd be open to anatomical modifications, but what exactly do you propose?

I once sprited and coded Farcry's midager race, but I lost that when my computer exploded in November.
I just made several clothing items that only worked for them and they couldnt wear anything else.
Also, Frances, I think that's what Nik is saying, they're not bad, they just need spicing up.

The Unathi need raptor feet and the Tajaran need digigrade legs.

Would be cool if like the Unathi could dig their claws in rather than wearing magboots.
