The problem I have with Backgrounds is that they arent doing in BG3 what they are doing in the D&D5 rules.
In the D&D5 rules, after chosing a Background, while you get forcefed two skills just like in the game, you also get asked a LOT of questions what exactly your specific personality is. The PHB gives a lot of choices about that, but in my understanding you really could come up with anything, these are just examples that you could go for. So in D&D5 the Background is really just a canvas that you have to fill yourself.
For example if I play a Bard I might very likely pick Noble as background. After all, as a noble, I had the time and resources to pay the best trainers for all kinds of art. A priviledge other backgrounds wouldnt get.
But instead, in BG3, you get forcefed a single personality per Background. My aforementioned Bard with Background Noble suddenly is a shallow hunter for exclusitivity. Which doesnt fit a Bard at all, after all Bards are dreamers and idealists.
My proposal would be thus be to split Background into Background (which stay the same and decide the two extra skills you get) and Personality (which decides what inspirations you get during the game). So you could for example be a Criminal (Background), but an Exclusitivity Hunter (which would be the personality we get if we pick Noble). That would IMHO represent much better what D&D5 originally intented.
Also it would allow to give us exactly the original D&D5 backgrounds of the PHB and give Larian the freedom to add and remove personalities as they see fit.
