From what I've seen, character creation doesn't really seem that full of variety. I haven't really seen anything other than grey, grey, and a little blue.
Also, "Craft the video-game character of your dreams"? What if I want to be a robot, or a cartoony anthropomorphic animal? (This is only an example, guys) Sure, I would still try this out if we could only play human, but from what I've seen so far, they just need to show us some more variety.
