Guys, this ain't the feedback forum, yet you're treating it as if it is. When not posted in Suggestions & Feedback, and phrased in such a way that is a very clear and obvious question. Have none of you ever come across the typical "Rate the avatar of the poster above" threads?
Sure, you can have the opinion of not being excited for any origins, and say "none of them", but what's the point of that? I don't go into a neighbor's party and yell "Booooring" just because I don't happen to be into themed parties. Kind of makes me look like an ass. What I'm saying is, I'm very close to closing the thread if all people want to do is argue with eachother and get into a passive-aggressive fight over something that isn't even in Suggestions & Feedback. Nothing in this subforum is within the scope of discussing or lobbying for change in development. Any reply any of you make in that regard, in this subforum, is already out of place. Particularly if just playing the "You said, I said, semantics, I need to win this argument" game, that has nothing to do with the OP topic.
Now I know it's tempting. Passionate talking-points that we have burning opinions about is hard to just keep in, but we don't have to derail and make every single thread about it, particularly when it's well outside the feedback category.
I for one am struggling with whether I'd want to play as Shadowheart, or a custom to get all flirty with Shadowheart.
Wait, what!?! This thread didn’t go where I originally thought that it would go, but it has provided a lot of really well thought out and well written feedback and discussion. I don’t like it when it veers off into one-on-one arguments that turn somewhat personal, but overall there has been a lot of valid (passionate) feedback that should be helpful to Larian. It sounds like you are saying that no one at Larian will read this or take it as feedback because it is posted in the General forum and not in the Suggestions & Feedback forum. Please clarify. If so, as the OP, I request that this thread remain active but get moved to the Suggestions & Feedback forum. I really hope that someone at Larian reads the feedback that was generated here. They can choose to do with it what they wish, but I hope that it gets seen.
