And that's what Jergal appreciates about him

More Classes or Races?
I'm not interested.
There already are quite a few Races and Classes I don't care about and if these were axed I'd not even notice.
Monk, Warlock, Druid (should be subclass of Cleric) Tiefling, Dragonborn, Gityanki - meh.

Races and subclasses I would like to see in mods smile
(or future DLCs)

Races:
Aarakocra
Aasimar
Changelings
Githzerai
Kenku
Tortle (to play teenage mutant ninja turtles!!!)
vHuman

Subclasses:
Whisper Bards
Samurai Fighters
Kensei Monks
Mercy Monks
Conquest Paladins
Swashbuckler Rogues
Divine Soul Sorcerer
Fathomless Warlock
Hexblade Warlock (depends on implementation in game)

Peace and twilight clerics, and clockwork soul and abberant mind sorcerers are REALLY cool, but also extremely unbalanced and would have to be weakened in order to make them fair to play

I would love to play as a certain teenaged Hot-headed Tortle Barbarian, he's clearly better than the Fighter, Bard and Artificer Tortles.

If, and I hope they are going to create a DLC taking our characters up to lv 20. The only Race I care to see, and I don't suspect with a DLC will see race's as much as the rest of our classes being filled out.

Would be Aasimar

DRAGON FIRE-AND DOOM Dragons? Splendid things, lad-so long as ye look upon them only in tapestries, or in the masks worn at revels, or from about three realms off...

I would be really surprised if Larian did DLC and didn't eventually add the Soulknife subclass to Rogues. They are very mechanically distinct in a way that makes them fit very well into this type of game.

Personally, I'd like to see more body types. Bulkier, thicker, etc.

I don't mind if it's mods, or if it's additions in the future, would just be nice to have more than lanky options for more of the races.

LOL!
Allowing the PC to proudly claim, like Dwarf Priest from Goblin Slayer Abridged - "I am what the humans call THICC!"

Like the dwarf body type...

But on like, Half-Orc, or any of the other humanoid races.

Surprisingly Dragonborn is about the sweet spot for me though, so I'm happy they nailed that.

The Swashbuckler rogue subclass from SCAG

Grave domain cleric (so that I could play a proper Kelemvorite cleric)

As far as races go there's only one I want... variant human

Races i would like to see are Githzerai and Aasimar, and vHuman.

Subclasses i'm mostly fine with, Grave Clerics are cool, and i really like Circle of Stars druids.

Not knowing anything about Githzerai, I looked them up and wow, yea, that would have been incredible as a contrast to Lae'zel and the other Githyanki in the game.

Githzerai would be cool, Aasimar would be interesting but I'm not sure how well they would translate to the CRPG aesthetic. I wouldn't mind seeing goblins and hobgoblins because they are already integrated into the game. It's like I really think warforged are a brilliant idea, but I don't think they really work in the Forgotten Realms.

Classes I'm less sure of, but would probably prefer more subclasses of existing classes rather than whole new classes.

This is from a Kotaku article that was published today:

"Larian has been working on Baldur’s Gate 3 for six years and the game features 11 races, with their own original appearances and traits. For now, the studio has “no plans whatsoever” to add any new races to the RPG. So if you were hoping to play as some of the other Dungeons & Dragons races like a Giff or a Bugbear, temper your expectations. But the races that are in the character creator all seem to have a lot of options, even among the presets."

We might see more subraces, but there's way too much voicework involved in new races, especially considering they won't be able to get all the same actors.

If they ever add more subclasses in an expansion I'd like to see grave cleric, psi knight fighter, Shadow and Divine sorcerers, and Swashbuckler rogue.

I have 0 idea why they didn't have a Gith Race and just make the yanki and zerai subraces. On a good note that is going to be one of the easiest mods to make.

The only thing I can venture a guess about the reasoning is that they are basically KoS for each other, so they didn't want to have to deal with a whole chunk of act 2 being completely unusable because you picked the wrong sub-race.

So I guess I have 1 idea...

Githzerai and Lae'zel see each other in the tutorial..
