Collecting ideas/opinions for "Fallout 5"

The thing I think I'd be most interested to see in Fallout 5 would be the ability to play as different races. Something like Human (Vault Dweller), Human (waster), Ghoul, Super Mutant, Robot and then maybe something else(I want to say deathclaw as the last race)

Each race would have a different starting point and relationship to the main narrative. Some overlapping quests that any of them could do. Some unique quest lines. Main purpose wouldn't be to try to write 5 or 6 complete narratives but more to provide entirely different play styles. But the main juice of it would be your relationship with the game world at large. If you chose Super Mutant or Ghoul, many humans would be hostiles but perhaps some fauna would be less aggressive. If you chose deathclaw, you basically wouldn't have any quests outright and it'd practically be a different game entirely centered on survival from the perspective of a beast.

Of course such an idea would be a significant undertaking and has things that conceivably wouldn't mesh well but conceptually something along those lines would really freshen up the universe and role playing while also providing new perspective on the game world.
