Most people agree that it is significant power creep, not all over the board but for specific applications that powergamers are quick to exploit.Honestly, I have not done a complete comparison for all races across all classes, I'm not really interested in that. Moreover, on your question, race abilities are usually fairly defensive. But the power creep that just happens to fill in a glaring hole in the defenses of classes created with weaknesses is enough for me. Combining this with wanting a fantasy world where races difference matters was enough for us to say that Floating ASIs would stay as options that we don't allow.</blockquote>
