I'm not super far yet in WotR, but I'm loving it. I must say. I love creating characters using Custom photos I pull from the internet.
I started with an aasimar paladin of Iomadae, not even realizing how well that would fit into the story right from the start. I went in knowing nothing but it's about demons invading. The only drawback with this character build is that my favorite NPC so far is Seelah, and she's pretty much the same.
My second was a Dragon blooded (Black) half-elf sorceress. Gonna make her a Dragon Disciple. Can't wait to have her turn into a dragon later.
My third was an elf druid with a velociraptor. That's when I realized animal companions were done differently - I can name it, give it items, level it up myself... Yeah. Now THAT is fun. WotR has done animal companions right.
My fourth is a white kitsune rogue dagger wielder. She's the only one I based on a WotR portrait, but she kicks serious butt with daggers and is a far better build than Camellia. I don't really care for Miss "Today you are my sacrifice," or whatever she says.
My fifth is my latest, but she's quickly becoming my favorite. A halfling cleric who is almost like a ranger but she's full-on cleric. Background hunter and cleric of nature, she wields a longbow and has a wolf animal companion that she can mount. Reminds me of the old Elfquest game/light novels. She's an awesome healer AND the best archer in the party - better than Lann.
And I love that when I equip things, they show on my characters. And I love that I can spin the camera. I mean. There's just so much I like about this game so far. I gotta say, it's really, REALLY drawing me in.
BG3 could REALLY gain a lot if they took some tips from it.
