Remember also that in their initial advertising Larian said they'd be utilising the 5e ruleset "as faithfully as possible".
Thats the thing .. people keep saying this around here but are unable to support such claim with any link or other proof ... On the other hand there is MANY sourced materials where Swen say exact oposite. :-/
That really forces me to being sceptical about its autenticity ... So far the best explanation seems to be that those words are either cut out of very important context ... like: "we would like to utilise 5e as faithfull as ppssible BUT some things just dont trnslate well into videogame and our first and most important goal is to make fun game." Or that they were actualy never spoken at all and its just someone own interpretation. :-/
I still dont understand why cant we change Race for our hirelings. Lets us play Githyanki as racist as they trully are!
