My custom character is MY character, so I love her. The origin companions are super overrated, and I can't imagine ever playing as them, they won't be who they are if I play them, they'll simply be a shallow version of their original personality. All imo at least.
I agree. That is an important part of any rpg imo, the ability to role play and develope a characters personality freely. As opposed to playing through a fixed story with a fixed character.
The player character should me a main character of the game. They don’t necessarily have to be “the choosen one” but they really shouldn’t be just the side kick hanging out with the big kids either. Really, would the story change if the custom pc wasn’t part of it? No. And that is not right. This is why this game feels like Divinity instead of BG.
