Humans are not bad at all, you just need to learn how to build them properly.
By default they give +1 to all stats, hopefully they add the ability to use the variant human as they get a free feat at level 1 which can be very powerful.
ive played pnp campaigns where weve houseruled feat at first lvl regardless which i think would be a nice feature you could toggle on/off for your campaign as you prefer, particularly in mp - sure that could really lead to some overpowered characters (two feats 1st lvl variant human) and idk how realistic that may be for larian at this stage, but id argue it could also open up some new playstyles and/or get a particular character build off the ground faster (particularly if there is a lvl cap)
