I doubt there are enough people like me to merit this, but I'd really like Larian to come out with a statement the effect:

1) "We are not going to enable players to make multiple fully customizable characters for a custom party" or
2) "We are going to enable players to make multiple custom characters for a custom party"

I played hundreds of hours in EA and stopped because I figured I should wait for two things: Increased Level Cap and the ability to build a custom party. (Of course, I also wanted Act 2 and 3.) Larian gave tantalizing hints that the desire to create custom parties "had been heard" so I was absolutely certain that was going to be an option. When it wasn't it was far more disappointing than if Larian had just said, "we aren't going to allow players to make custom parties." Then, at least, I wouldn't have gotten my hopes up. Act 1 wasn't as fun the second, third, or fourth time around. So I don't want to spoil Act 2 by playing with a party that is not what I really want. If Larian would just let me know whether I should wait, that would be awfully nice. I'd happily hold off for many months until custom party creation was implemented. If it's never going to be, I'd rather just do my best to respec the origins and/or vessels into something close to what I wanted and get back to playing.
