[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8387767, member: 23751"] Both reduce your option to 1, prior to character generation. The class limitation reduces you to one class. The removal of the array reduces you to one type of stat generation. That's the same. Any power levels and such aren't relevant to that. Those are just the justifications which have no relevance to what I am saying. 1. It isn't [B][U]as[/U][/B] realistic(bolded and underlined because you keep ignoring it for some reason and it's important). 2. It doesn't matter if you can understand why it's consequential to me. I've said that it is and that's all that matters. You can get 10% more accurate. Leaving hundreds of thousands of players out to dry isn't acceptable to a company that wants to make money and they wouldn't do it. It doesn't overpower any of them. The game is balanced for 14-20 as starting stats. 18's get rolled a high enough percent of the time that they would have to take those hundreds of thousands of players into account as well. There's a hell of a lot more random involved than that. If they tell you it was just hard work they're BSing you. Genetics is more important. There'd be many, many, MANY more world class athletes if hard work did it. Nothing is presenting them as equal. You made a claim, you need to prove it. [/QUOTE]
