You make it sound like you haven't played neither BG nor DOS2. Almost without exception the added dialogue choices are there to provide an illusion of choice and/or are nonsensical time-fillers and adds little to a game, even detracts from it. I would counter that the immersion gained by voice acting is immensely much more worth than the word salad which oftentimes is the result of an overemphasis on text. On the other hand the majority of issues discussed on forums like these are already probably decided so might as well make the pitch. Although depending on how far along they are it may be a moot point with resources already being spent. As well as that if you are going to limit yourself that way it would be better (and bolder) to include races no other games let you play as rather than the same old same old.
I would argue that since resources are indeed finite it is a shame to waste them by including voice acting in an rpg, since not only does it take up time and budget, but so drastically limits other options such as dialog choices and character creation choices.
Genasi are likely in as well for the same reason, although hopefully Larian fixes their mechanical issues.īeyond that it gets harder to pick, although I think Goblinoids (except for the Verdan), Lizardfolk, Orcs, Goliaths and Tabaxi have a really good chance of being in, but they are much better targets for debate because they are not as close to being certain to be in as the other races I've mentioned are, so use this as the starting point for debating instead of races that are pretty much far gone conclusions. And it doesn't matter if you think they shouldn't be in, because at thispoint odds are its a moot point. Aasimar are very important to the Forgotten Realms setting and they have a long history in FR, including in some of the best CRPGs, like Neverwinter Nights 2 and Icewind Dale, so extremely likely to be in. Now moving onto none PHB races, we already know some are going to be in, Githyanki is confirmed, which makes Githzerai extremely likely as well. Making sure all the PHB content that they can tranlate to a CRPG has been made clearly a priority, races, subraces, classes, subclasses, backgrounds, ect. And just be cause both races are short doesn't mean they are interchangable.
All the PHB races are going to be in the game, so posts saying we don't need both Halflings and Gnomes are pointless. First off of course both Gnomes and Halflings are in, as well as at least the main elf subraces, perhaps all of them. I think alot of the posts in this thread are silly. And if that is true, we will likely get updated rules for Zendikar's living Vampires. Ixalan's planeshift article also had its own version of living vampires.Īnd there are those of us expecting a Zendikar campaign setting book connected to Zendikar Rising Set coming this winter, most likely releasing in 2021. Basically Vryloka were more living vampires like you have some MtG settings, but with a bunch of unique twists.ĥe does have prototype Living Vampires in the Zendikar Planeshift Artivle, which while unofficial, was made by the developer of Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica and the upcoming Mythic Odysseys of Theros, as well as helping to write Eberron: Rising From The Last War. I would love to see the race updated for 5e. Dhampir's aren't a thing in D&D really, but Vryloka are, and they are very cool, IMHO the coolest race in all of 4e, because they were mechanically intetresting and had vampiric fluff that made them very different from Dhampirs, while playing in the same thematic sphere.įirst off they were usual red heads, they could turn other humans that dead around them into Vrylokas, and they had unique twists on vampire lore, they background lore was great.
