from the main poster there's like 5 characters. considering origin story, you be one of them. in DOS2 there are 6 in total. so how many playable characters in bg3?
ps. in wrath of the righteous there's 11 party characters.
I think it is all speculation at this point. I'm hoping for closer to 10 myself, but it's hard to say with how much work is clearly going into each one.
