My biggest fears are these:

1) The custom Tav will have less impact on the story, or will be less interlinked with the story, compared to origin characters.

2) A lot of characters say demeaning comments about you some times, or just disagree with you. I am afraid, based on what we saw so far, that our character won't have banter to retaliate as they should, if they so will.

3) I am afraid that the untested parts of the game will be less thrilling than described, and full of bugs.

4) Races and subclasses that i enjoy playing won't be part of the game, is another concern. Aasimar, Yuan-ti Pureblood, and Hexblade, Shadow Sorcerer, are what i would like to see for example.

5) This is my biggest fear by far. And so far, i have had no one from Larian even commenting to address this issue. Plate armors seen on trailers( a few only ), and available through mods, have problems with their appearance. Plate armor is supposed to be interlocking plates, as in, your elbowcap covers your bracers etc, your kneecaps cover your shinguards and so on. In every RPG out there you can see this pattern. It's the norm, even on DOS2. That was true until patch 7 in EA as well, only seen through mods, up to now, but now you can see it trailers, even the last one. Everything we have seen on heavy armor has these gaps, between the body armor and the boot models, like the design concept has issues. Like the models of boots for example, don't match at all with the rest of the armor, especially in interlocking alignment. This creates a goofy image on armor, that we used to see at the start of the 3D era. Not now, and certainly not on a game like this. This, again, did not happen before patch 7, something changed then, or close to that. I hope it's just the EA models, but i see trailers with the same issue. Drow leather doesn't suffer from this, and it's a light armor, what is the deal with heavy armor? Maybe we haven't seen it's full implementation yet? Can you show something that alleviates this problem?

Maybe this isn't a big issue for some, but for me it is. How my character and their gear look is important, if i didn't find it important i would play something else than a fantasy RPG of this caliber. So can someone please for the love of Tyr or Ghond or Umberlee or whatever, answer that this is an issue only with early access? We saw this problem in trailers as well, shouldn't we show the best in trailers, appearance wise? I would really like to know what happened to the armor models, why don't they interlock or cover boots properly, and will it be fixed for the final release? Larian?

6) This happened in DOS2. I am afraid that some cool armor sets that we will see on NPCs, are NPC only. This, and, when you loot someone wearing armor, they should have the armor on, especially if they benefitted from its AC.
