Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Origins - Don't even think about it!

but, as someone pointed out, how does their origins affect the story when you choose one to be played as the main character? will the dialogue options change based on their class, background etc or will it be the same as for a custom created main char? If it's the latter I don't really see a problem with people being able to change the class and skill set but ofc it would change the origins chars to mere aesthetic husks for that player.

Edit: Oops, by reading the official FAQ I realized we're talking about changing their class when recruiting them, not when choosing them as playable chars in the start of a new game. And for that option I heavily agree with the thread title. Redistributing their ability points I could see as a nice option, but changing their class. no. no. no. just no, don't do it.
