Genuinely curious since I see a lot of people complain about it. I don't hate the concept but I never see myself playing the origins and I kind of wish they would redirect resources to making the PC more interesting.
I love the origin system and if they took it out I would be less motivated to play the game. A Shadowheart playthrough is one of the first ones I'm going to make. An Astarion one is totally happening too.

I have played only origins in DOS2 and it was cool, so look forward and also plan playtrough with Shadowheart. But first will be custom to see companion stories from another perspective.
