Fair enough. 'Custom party' obviously means something different to you. I care more about class than name and visuals but I would like to be able to change those too.

Its not terrible, i wont be using them. But its one of these things that makes it impossible to talk about the game in public forums because people will just point to these dumb descisions and say larian is insane.

For what purpose would you have predefined characters that have no personality anyway?
Just let the player make their own companions it worked in divinity, it worked in pathfinder, who the hell wants a "custom" party ofl.... predefined characters.
its like picking the standard party members in Icewind Dale, who ever did that? not one person im sure.
Good points all. Taking it one step further would it not be possible to have a selection of personalities (with associated dialogue) to choose from so you could assign one (e.g arrogant noble, shady low-life - cliches but you see my point) to your build?
