Feeling that I have more racial choice would also be great.

Although, rolling comes with risks. Roll the dices six times and say you get following results: 16, 5, 8, 18, 10, 11. Then choosing which ability get which value means that two of your stats is gonna be sub-par. But, and please correct me if I'm wrong, I got the impression that's exactly what you don't want. Or, do you mean that you want the rolling to work like it did in BG2 where you could roll endlessly until you got stats you were happy with?

I'd prefer to roll until I got a character I thought I would enjoy playing, but if necessary I'll just start the character creation process over. Larian isn't going to stop folks from creating a new character until they've played through a bad roll, "bad" being a roll they don't want to play, for whatever reason.

No no, ofc not. It was just when you said you don't like having low secondary stats that I got confused, thinking point buy would be better then than rolling since rolls always comes with a risk.
