Considering the ties both Lathander and Amaunator have to previous games in this series, we should at least get call-outs to them, along with a spiffy temple or two to visit in Baldur's Gate.
I gotta be honest, having him in our face but not selectable might upset me MORE if anything.
What especially aggravates me is that on the evil side there is a solid representation of the prominent evil gods. But for the good side it feels like the gods were just randomly picked out of a hat with no thought given to the selection whatsoever. And this fits with how the companions are working out as well (yes, even if we supposedly get some good companions in the future). So overall it feels very strongly to me that the game is being made for those who like to play the evil side, and the good side is deliberately getting screwed over.
I love Larian. I do. But having played through Divinity 2 several times, I can say they have a VAST preference for nuetral/evil protagonists. I think they find them a lot more compelling... you couldn't very easily play a classic hero at all.
And I agree. Their good god selection feels like they picked ones for specific races then threw a dart at a dartboard. Missing Lathander, Torm, Chauntea and some others seems crazy to me.
