Don't know where people were getting that I was questioning people's morals IRL. I did no such thing, only asking why people would want to play such a character (in the game). And even that was a sincere question, not a dig at anyone. It does seem that many people here just can't wait to interpret any post I make as negatively as possible, just for the sake of it.
Well dude, maybe you're just not the best communicator, because saying:
And for me, it is very troubling that so many people seem to believe that playing a psychopath can be "interesting" and "fun."
Definitely comes off as judgy and that you question the morals of those who find that playstyle fun. Surely if you worded your thoughts better you wouldn't get nearly as much flak in response.
Regarding the main topic, while I can see how some people find Tav as lacking the spice of the origin characters, it is also the only real blank slate option that gives you the opportunity to roleplay whoever you want. If I choose Wyll as an origin character, no matter which path I decide to take, I'm still playing Wyll's story, a character that's already established in the world as the guy who made a pact with a devil and is known as The Blade of Frontiers. And even if I choose The Dark Urge, while I can customize the race, class and appearance, I'm still playing a somewhat established character with a past (even if we don't remember it at the beginning) and existing relations with other characters (Sceleritas Fel). So I don't think it's a problem that Tav doesn't get any exclusive content like the rest of the cast does, because it gives us a lot more freedom to roleplay different characters.
