I find Baldur's Gate to be frustratingly limiting in what we can say and how we can say it, especially compared to other crpgs. If you compare it to something like Mass Effect or The Witcher, it's incredibly impress. But compared to Pillars of eternity, any of the Pathfinder games, etc, it's disappointing in my opinion. At least by having a silent protagonist we can imagine our character's tone. I think if Larian had their way, then even the most good character would still come off as a dismissive jerk. That's the tone I've gotten from several interactions we've had in EA. There are multiple frustrating occasions where we've had no choice but to be mean or dismissive, ad that issue could only be amplified by full voicing.
