Attribute affinity?

[Falerm]

So I've been looking at some advice regarding character builds and get conflicting information to what I see in game. Some posts refer to Attribute Affinity which supposedly affects the way your attributes grow as you level up.

But from what I can see, all attributes grow by 1 and you can choose three each level to raise them by additional 2. I don't see a difference between the attributes with a star and those without.

Am I getting something wrong? From what I've seen all the class, background and race does, is each gives you a bonus +1 to one of the attributes. Am I wrong?

Affinity is a depricated game mechanic. In current versions of the game, it just represents a recommendation of what Attributes to level with your points, but you are free to assign them as you see fit.
