i like to create "powerful characters" while inside a set of rules that are fair for everyone involved.

I don't like to just sidestep the rules and add to myself magic bonus stats. May as well playing using a trainer to rewrite all my stats and skills at that point.

A point buy system is perfectly fair: "Here's a bunch of points for each one of you. Find a way to make the best possible use of it".
A roll system without a game master acting as guardian? It's basically a free pass to cheat your character creation. And let's be honest here, if the game gave you all only, say, three rerolls for your dices and forced you to stick with one of the results, you would hate it.

Party control in Baldur's Gate 3 is a complete mess that begs to be addressed. SAY NO TO THE TOILET CHAIN
