It’s funny folks bring up Harry Potter, as I have compared it to BG3 in convos with pals. I liked the plot of Harry Potter, but despised the characters for the most part because it was basically a bunch of aresewipe jocks with barely an ounce of empathy between them who are the heroes in the end.
Similarly, I get a bit of cringe from my team in BG3 because they also lack empathy. I feel like I am walking around with a bunch of narcissists, which totally voids any emotional investment I may have in them. Hope that improves as we get to know them more later in game. Fingers crossed.
