I am just an n=1, but I quit DOS2 halfway thru when I realized how much content I was missing by not playing an origin char. I was annoyed and have no desire to play any of the others.
I either want a single well written protagonist (e.g. Geralt), a complete blank slate (e.g. Skyrim), or a semi defined customizable character with a great crew (e.g., Dragon Age series). I really dislike the DOS2 formula. Interactions with my crew feels like a constant billboard screaming at me to “try one of these origin chars”. It is a fame fighting itself.
But it is what it is. I will only play a custom char and naybe 5 years from now I’ll get bored and try Asterion so I can try out super evil. Msybe. (Probably not)
