I'm curious if those changes will make it into BG3. I don't know many details regarding what Wizards has announced (just that it involves dark elves and orcs), but I'm simultaneously excited to see what they come up with, and also slightly worried that it might impact Larian's release.

I've heard that Wizards has very particular quality standards, so I could understand if some adjustments need to be made.


This accellorated things, but a lot of this stuff was in motion before 2020 happened, after they got critized for stuff like CoS and ToA.

And Jeremy Crawford mentioned that the Gnolls in like the NM should have been fiends, with a seperate Gnoll humaniod race. So I think somewhere Gnolls PC race is coming.
