I have been trying to do research in how Origin characters work when in multiplayer (Origin character being played by a player in the game).
I seem to come up with information that romance will most likely not work as how odd the interactions would be between two players but there was some post a long time ago that Larian said this will be possible. Of course, a lot has changed since these posts were placed.
But, this isn't what I am interested. What I am wondering is how Origin dialog/story/quests will play out with another player playing as an Origin?
I would imagine it would work similar to just playing a single player game and you pick an Origin character instead of an Origin character being a companion, but I can't seem to find any information.
The main reason why I am asking is because I will be playing the first play through with 3 others. They all want to make Tavs, so player interaction will basically be non-existent, but if I play, say Wyll, will we get to see Wyll, played by me, getting talked to, see Mizora show up in the camp and have interactions with her, and reactive dialog when quests/events come up? Will we see interaction of playing the Origin and if the other players are around me, they can listen in to what is happening?
Another reason why I bring this up is I would like to add some interactivity between party members as three others are going to be Tavs and adding a PC Origin character might bring this but, if me playing as a PC Origin will just remove all interactivity because all other players are also PCs, then there might not be a reason to play Origin characters in multiplayer sessions of BG3. I was hoping we can experience the Origin story while all of us playing the game together.
