[QUOTE="Faolyn, post: 8373194, member: 6915329"] So all those traits that each race has that differentiates them from every other race: meaningless. All that cultural information that each race has--and for some races, this includes literal books worth of information that have been written over the past five editions: meaningless. A +2/+1 bonus that only means something in terms of how well you hit something or how high your save DC is: the most important thing ever. Wow. Also, I'm honestly confused. How do you tell the difference between a sea elf and a goblin, since they both have +2 Dex, +1 Con? Or between a dracon dragonborn and a rock gnome, since they both have +2 Int, +1 Cha? Or a loxodon, a lizardfolk, a water genasi, or a hill dwarf, since they all have +2 Con, +1? Or are you actually saying you literally don't know how to play an 8-foot-tall creature with innate spellcasting that allows them to detect magic and disguise themselves as someone up to three feet shorter, that can turn invisible, that can communicate with plants and animals, and counts as one size larger for carrying purposes, unless you also know that you get +2 Wis and +1 Str?
