Interesting discussion
I believe the Team of Larian already wrote the whole storyline for Divinity III . What do you think ?
But it's always nice to read the many different opinions and to see how creative minds starts "thinking of" all possible storylines etc ...
I have no problem with a start as a level 20 character (like Stabbey mentioned), but like Raze said "character resets being a long tradition in RPG sequels" ... I believe the main character in Divnity III will BE a Level 1 !
PLUS :
I always love it to start with a weak/poor character (for the 'FEVER' aspect in a RPG!) that have at least 1 special connection/relationship with the previous NPC(s) walking/talking in the Divinty Universe ... or whatever ...
It's fine the MC doesn't know what his/her Journey have in store for him and little by little it become more clearly ....
Maybe you, he MC (a warrior, ranger, mage, priest, etc), is connected with the Divine One who wish to take Damian down for once and always ... but unknow forces Damian has turned out that a Divine One can't kill him (or he tried but failed?)... so the Divine One MUST find somebody else ! Maybe this is a little bit too "cliché" story
.. but there're so much possibilities ... I believe .
PLUS :
I like it if the storyline can suprise us all (gamers) with an unknown turn ... who knows what awaits us
