The reason Generic character exists is rather simple and I really do appreciate it exists.
You learn this if you roleplay with people but what a LOT of people prefer when making a character is to have someone with absolutely no one to tie them down.
There are people who would genuinely prefer that they have absolutely no one in a game... then to have a wife and two kids.
The issue is... That there is nothing between playing a premade character and playing a complete blank slate. So yeah it can feel like they are actively punishing you for not wanting to play one of their characters.
