Spoiler: it involves more work.
You have aumaua and then you have humans and elves who are at roughly the same scale, and then you have orlans and dwarves who are quite a bit smaller. And for each of those, especially in first person, you're adjusting the height of the player character's capsule and sort of where their weapons are relative to enemies and how their hits land and how hits land on them.
- Also probably they'd have to redesign a lot of the world so specific things and views they wanted you to see are at the right height.
  
  Isn't that the point? They're shorter. They'll have trouble seeing the same stuff. That's role playing.
- Lol that's rough
I think thats fine, you'll hardly see your character ever and body height makes the effort much higher than needed
