It feels so akward.
What are the chances of being able to choose your begininng problem?
For example.... well, the origin characters.
No idea what shadow hearts emo problem is, and frankly don't care, F***ing snowflake, and lae'zal is on a permenant period, so whatever....
But the others?
Gale - doesn't need a tadpole problem, he needs help.
Wyll - doesn't need a tadpole problem, he needs help.
Asteron - doesn't need a tadpole, he needs help.
Why railroad these characters into joining, back off the tadpole for them, and allow RP?
Or allow us to choose our problem at character creation, and have the nautloid crash be a catalyst for the start of the game.... allowing us to pick a character that was never on the ship, but has gales problem, or wyll's problem, or asteron's problem, just minus the tadpole.
Or even Karloch's problem, escaping avernus.
Or being a escaped drow.
Or being a servant of the absolute and hunting the escapees instead.
Or (insert for backlash from BG3 community, and approval from BG 1/2 community) a Bhaalspawn.
etc. something to open up character creation and customization.
Just a thread. A thought.
