There are no rolls for abilities. If you go to the abilities tab in creation, you will see +/- symbols next to them.
BG3 uses a point buy system for abilities. You generally start of with 8 points in each and 27 points to spend.
Some things modify it like racial traits. Also the game presets 'recommended' stats but you are free to change them
at creation.
Yeah, I see the +/-, but I've never had to use pre-determined numbers before. It's one of the cool things about building your character in the first place. And I swear, Larian had said that you would have the option. Weird. This would definitely go in the 'Don't like' column if it's the final say in this part of the game.
Oh well... That list is smaller than the 'Like' one at least.
