Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Why origin characters?

I´m fine with any mechanics that are different from other CRPGs so I´m willing to give the origin characters an opportunity.

I´m planning to play a custom character first. The option to watch the story unfold in the eyes of one of your companions in later playthroughs I´m sure it will spice up the reruns of the game.
