"Everyone who wants rolling for stats to be in the game, do you want it because:
a) you want to roll until you get high enough ability scores b) you want to keep the first roll and play like tabletop"
I prefer rolling fir multiple reasons:
1. More varied. Point buy characters largely tend to look the same stats wise.
2. It's a game. Randomness is part of the fun for me.
3. It's tradition. Yeah, yeah, dome traditions ate bad abd need to be stopped... not this one, imo, lol.
4. I actually dont mind having low stats and point buy systems largely have higher minimums. Instead of a 3 minimum you get a 8 minimum. Meh. Give me that clumsy priest or that sickly mage. One if the most popular dnd inspired characters was literally a ridiculously unhealthy mage.. and he conquered the universe as a major villain.
5. It's the standard in phb. Point buy is the variant.
6. I prefer keeping the first roll though I do admit in crogs I tend to roll fir at least decent. I have played a bg character with as low as 78 though, and my highest was 93. Both playthroughs went fine.
7. It's fun!!! It's classic!!! It's wild!!!
8. Still dint see why the baseline phb rule if rolling could not, at least be an option. I thought bg3 was about options, and playing how you wanted to. This literally limits that
