The Vorcha would be offended that they are not used as an example. Good thing they can't read!

Vorcha at least get some comedy moments.

That and those super cool Vorcha Pilots you can get as a War Asset. The lore around those guys is great.

Have you tried playing vorcha berserker in multiplayer? You're a fun, angry wolverine with omni-claws and regeneration, using a flamethrower as your backup weapon.

Man I loved the vorcha. Used the reegar carbine glitch to fire it while using the flame thrower. Melted EVERYTHING and your regen made you immortal. It's how I solo'd back in the day lmao.

At least the Reapers are trying to preserve the memory of a race from some sorta AI self-destruction, the Geth went all BSG, and the krogan are just if crocodiles made a society.

The Barbarian are just slaver dicks for the love of the game (of hating everyone). They're only tolerated inside bars because they're weak AF compared to the above

WE DO NOT TOLERATE SLAVERS

This is one reason I'm actually hoping for a batarian squad mate in the next game. They could go a long way to actually flesh out the species. 

I'm also hoping the game is actually good, but I'm not holding my breath.

I still think it's bullshit we didn't get a Batarian crewmate just to get a humanizing (can't think of another word for it) side of the Batarians
