Fine, then take the negativity somewhere else. I provided a valid example of how it could work above. If all you are going to do is repeat the same "I don't want it so no-one should have it" mentality then just don't bother... such a feature wouldn't harm your gaming experience and could help others who would like to see it.

Oh it's the Option Fallacy of Game Development again.

Developers spending time and effort adding lots of code trying to get the game to do what it was never designed or intended to do in the first place does, in fact take time away from them fixing bugs and balance issues, so it does have an impact.

I don't know where people get the idea that describing the thing they want as an "option" automatically makes it free and easy for the developers to implement. Even when the "option" is a thing the game was not designed or intended to do.

For someone that just said they weren't even going to read the reasons for having such a feature in the game, you certainly have a strong opinion on the matter. Infact, this almost seems like a trolling attempt to completely derail what has been up to this point quite constructive until you hopped on-board to ignore everyone and force your opinion down everyone's throat. Why did you even bother commenting on this thread? You know what, I don't need an answer as it is blatantly clear to anyone reading.

As such, I am done "talking" to you if all you are going to do is rant without reason and without even reading other people's very valid comments.

Bumping a fairly "old" thread, but since it was one of the few which came up after researching the topic on importing/exporting/saving player characters for gm campaigns this thread was one of the few coming up.

I most sincerly request this feature for gm mode.

This exact question was raised during the undead reveal youtube stream in the q&a session that was roughly 2 months ago. Any updates I missed during my research (looking at you Larian ; ))

Still no news on this one? A real shame that a feature this important has still not yet been added to the game.
