[quote=IrenicusBG3] So, in other words, they COULD have started BG3 with you being some nobody from some small village near Elturel. The Cult of the Absolute is some rumor spreading around the area. Who are they? What are they up to? You investigate because you're a mercenary or a cleric on a holy quest or whatever. As you go, you learn more and more about these fanatics. They're infected with something, but what?.
Yes, I think that would be one good idea. I don't necessarily think Larian's premise is bad, I just don't like how they conducted the narrative and everything is so explicit and escalates quickly.
