Agreed.
Not relating to ingame, but roleplay:
The way I see it, at first there was little organisation or identity and so races provided us with that. Over time those races became bland architypes and had served their initial purpose.
Nowdays we have created our own image, roleplay our own 'race'. People know what Omega is. They know what Legion is. Symbols, mythos, players and past wars have created such a strong sense of identity, loyalty and friendship that bonds in race pale by comparrison.
Races almost seem like Roleplay training wheels until we find our own image.
For people who complain about roleplay being dead, action is more powerful then words. Do something about it and maybe, just maybe people will follow your example.
Ingame, not roleplay related:
Tactics, Skill, uniqueness & Gameplay have given way to keeping the majority and new players happy. Again, well thought out and detailed practical solutions in the suggestions area are more effective then verbal complaints without providing alternatives.
Again, best of luck Delta!
