Like it is unlikely that one will build a halfling warrior exactly the same than orc warrior, except the halfling has two points less Str and two points more Dex. No, that they can't get the best strength and do get a nice dex bonus will mean that they're far more likely to focus on dex based builds thus the characters will end up looking radically different. When you can't just max your main stat and say 'job's a good 'un' it directs you to seek other routes to do things, taking advantage of things that are the thematic niche of your race. Now whether one considers scores pushing certain races towards certain types of builds is a feature or a bug is a matter of opinion. You probably see it is a bug, I see it is a feature.</p></blockquote><p></p>
