Legit case in one of those Pokemon games too. You choose the woman character because her personality is quite….girly lmao so she does lots of Animal Crossing Items extra cutesy wootsy bullshit that takes time up when she’s an NPC. The male character is very stoic in contrast and cuts out all of the extra stuff.That’s just the sort of thing that is ruining D&D right now, you joke about it people are legally fighting for Orc rights. The concept of having a race which leans towards evil alignment in a world where orientation is important and enforced with magic that exists in world is racist.
Didn’t they say they’re removing’race’ for next entrances because iT wAs rAcIsT? You pick your own now so you can be a strong elf or an intelligent orc.
They didn’t even remove racial bonusesthey just gave you the choice to alter them if you want.
The thing is, people might have been doing this anyway, but now it’s in the official rules for 5e. If individuals don’t desire evil orcs, they can just not have evil orcs in their effort, it is so simple.I hear Not Another D&D Podcast and their effort exists in a universe where interbreeding has been a thing for millenia, therefore there are no”races”. Every being is a great number of different racial aspects.
For player characters it allow the players pick one racial”course” while having their character look however the want, and all beings are extremely”human-monster hybrid”.
Eg. Emily’s PC, Fia, is portrayed as being violet peeled and fanged, marginally”orcish” in her face however long and gangly elven body type. It is a mishmash of different descriptions that works good having a”look how you want, but employ a race’s attributes”.
Personally, I think it’s a bit OP because you can chose a feat onto every race (a feat is essentially like a talent and a few are extremely powerful ), but in the long run it’s to create your character more flexible when you wish to play with an Orc Wizard f.e. and do not have much use for the bonus strength.It’s more fun because you can play any race as any class but it makes races only another bit of buy Animal Crossing Bells fluff details which you inform your party once and they then overlook the entire game their magician is a half-orc.
