What are the little things you have noticed?
Here are a few that I have noticed;

1. Every race has different animations; running, charging, weapon swings etc. A Githyanki looks like elite military. Half-orc looks feral.

Astarion runs like he glides upon the earth while Gale runs like he doesn't really run that much at all.

2. Different spell FX depending on subclass. Paladins, for instance -- Ancients has a green tint to divine smite. Devotion is pure gold. Vengeance is red tinted. Audio is changed as well.

Monks have different sound effects for male and female. Higher pitch for females and lower pitch for male. You can test this by triggering flurry of blows and listening.

3. You can keep clicking on the character portrait to hear differing voice lines like it was back in the old Baldur's Gate days. Characters also have different voice lines for when they sneak.

That is all I have so far. What about you all?

Off the top of my head, I haven't noticed anything so minor at all as I'm mostly focused on co-op and voice chat.

Your observations are really interesting, I love knowing details like these ♥

Even if interactive animations aren't lined up correctly, I can change a character to a race with a different height, and still get most all of their lines delivered with a proper eyeline. Astarion turned into a halfling doesn't tell my Dragonborn's crotch that he's been conveniently lost, he looks up at my face as he emotes.

The subtle tone changes of Amelia Tyler (the Narrator) depending on what type of character do you play.

Uff, there is so much. No exaggerating.

Like, try taking off your shoes at a stony campsite and listen how the sounds of your walk change.

I didn't notice anything, I'm too focused on the fighting

Astarion runs like he glides the earth? More like Naruto-runs in my experience.
