No one cared because there was no TRUE class system in D:OS and their backgrounds didn't have anything to do with their class/skills/abilities/attributes/quest and you could respec anyone on the fly.
I meant to add this point, but forgot. Thank you! I will add it in an edit. I also agree, this is a much more story heavy game than DOS2 is. I also do love the camp feature, and it seems like such a waste, to limit camps to a select 3, and random followers, when we could easily have the whole cast.
