Well I want my freedom of choice to faithfully recreate my D&D 5e character that I play on the pen and paper TTRPG and I feel that is being taken from me after 3 years of playing EA.

It really does feel like a complete rug pull that it's being snuck in right before launch with zero official announcements thus far.

And I'm tired of being told by people that not being able to make my character the way I want is somehow giving me more options.

Please Larian, Racial Ability scores are already in the game, just give us a toggle.


It feels as though Larian has implemented in the main game a "booster" mod.
These kind of changes should only be available in MODS (or tied to difficulty or optionally), not with the main release of the game.
Or are we missing something? Would love to hear Larian discuss this issue.

I hope this is just for initial sales and reviews of the game to stay positive among casual gamers (making the game more in line to DOS2's freedom) and revert back in a future "D&D mode" patch.

It just reminded me of the bowl of goat's milk that old Winthrop used to put outside his door every evening for the dust demons. He said the dust demons could never resist goat's milk, and that they would always drink themselves into a stupor and then be too tired to enter his room..
