I am simultaneously very happy with a non-predetermined Origin like Dark Urge and disappointed in the total number of companions.
On the one hand: An in-depth, story-based backstory for my custom character that doesn't pigeonhole me into a specific character or personality and allows me to play any race or class.
On the other hand: Not an in-depth companion for each class. Apparently no story companion for the role of monk, sorcerer, or bard. Some may have to choose between story engagement and party composition.
I guess I will be playing a Dark Urge monk/sorcerer/bard for my first playthrough.
