[QUOTE="ceiling90, post: 5567652, member: 82284"] I liked racial feats that made being that race more awesome. Things like Eladrin Warrior, Dwarf whatever it was, and feats like that - I felt as though it made them more Eladrin-y or Dwarf-y cause it plays to fluff and perceived notions of those races. I felt that it gave some reinforcement of being that race; while not exactly playing on their racial power. Some absolutely hated that. The other really strong contending racial feats had to do with racial powers or change in how a class functioned due to being that race. I liked those. It also noticeably reinforced that race actually plays a role in your character apart from two ability bonus, mostly immaterial other benefits, and an extra encounter power. Once again, some absolutely hate that. I don't like most of the feat bloat either, but there are some really ridiculous corner case feats or some rather niche ones that no one ever picks. In way, feats need to be re-hauled, re-focused, and given a consistent power level and use for each feat. Kinda like the new General Feats, only I think it needs to go even further, but to do so would require a new Edition. [/QUOTE]
