Well aren't you a gem. To start with, Baldur's Gate 3 dosen't "need" any races? Last I checked a selection of races was a part of D&D for as long as I can remember, so even under your very restrictive (and incorrect) definition of need you can make a case that it needs a selection of races to be a D&D game.
Second, if you crack open Merriam-Webster's dictionary, definition 2a of a need is "a lack of something requisite, desirable, or useful." Sinve, while mostly joking, I would find the presence of kobolds and goblins desirable, I am perfectly comfortable with my declaring them a need. If you are going to be so boorish as to respond to a pretty obviously humorous post with quibbles over word choices, please do everyone the courtesy of making sure you know what words mean first.
Perhaps next time rather than try to provide some humor and/or get us some novel playable character choices I will reiterate some variation of the turn based/it dosen't feel like Baldur's Gate/why u make DOS3? arguments and you will feel more at home.
