I have a coupl big fears about this game. The first is that our main character will continue to be not a blank slate but an empty suit, an eternally disconnected entity with no unique purpose within the narrative that couldn't be supplanted by any of the origin characters when we play as them. Relatedly, I continue to fear that the character won't even be a good blank slate and will be pigeon holed into having only two or three specific personality types they can express, and who mostly serves to exemplify the origin characters thatwill ultimately steal the spotlight.

My biggest fear though isn't even directly tied to anything the game does. I'm really scared that BG3 will do super well and that other crpgs will feel the need to be more like it, when ultimately I think that it fails to capture the full potential of what crpgs can be and may noteven live up to its own ull potential. But it's using a big franchise name and so will get more recognition and attention than it deserves while other deeper, more interesting games get ignored.
