I really think people blow this crying about Orcs out of proportion, there was NEVER an actually interesting villain in this game whose reasons of being a villain boil down only to "I'm an Orc, Goblin, Drow or other evil race". And saying a whole species is inherently evil effectively diminishes all evil they do because you are saying they never could choose not to do it, which reduces them to children who don't know better. People should move on and stop flooding my yt feed with identical videos repeating the same points.

I think that it's highly setting dependant, and also dependant on the kind of game your DM is running. I've exclusively run things in my own setting, so any particular race's natural alignment was more of a suggestion than a requirement.

Now what really threw me for a loop was orks loosing the 'powerful build' feature. Orks can be twinks now and I love it.
