Well, my initial reaction is disappointment. No dwarf, gnome, or halflings in the party in BG 3 it seems.

Honestly, I was hoping for something a little more...different? Asterion is already a murderer, and the whole 'evil entity tagging along' thing reminds me of Lohse. I feel like Larian might be trying a bit to hard to make a 'unique' character, but at the same time in danger of returning to some of the same tired old troupes.

This could easily turn into cliche & edgy 'lol-evul' nonsense if Larian isn't careful.
