There was a time when people would have said all these things about a Drow PC. And now they're ubiquitous. I mean, what if the goblin character is the Drizzt of goblins?
I'm fairly old for gamer standards and I certainly don't remember one such time. A drow can function as an individual, can be adept at all classes offered without stretching the boundaries of racial aptidudes unlike goblins. I would be perfectly alright if a drow was required to hide his/her identity in towns - something that is already part of the DoS2 engine when you're undead.
