Aren't dwarves the 3rd or 4th most popular race in that poll people keep quoting? Should Larian just erase every race under that? Being 3rd/4th ranking is pretty popular.
Plus, if Larian only include the most popular choices we'd all be forced to be male human fighters which iirc Larian took a fit over. Lol
Remember, whenever there are options given one will, be most popular one will be least popular, and others will be in the middle.
As fir the camera thing... you can play dwarves, and other short races which also have access to every romance so claiming that thev'camera work is too hard' is actually insulting to Larian since clearly are capable of using the camera on the shorter folk.
GO DWARVES GO
Yes, dwarves are very popular. I don't remember ever being in a DnD group without a dwarf player, except one and that one has a gnome artificer (me😁)
