I will say I'm kind of surprised there isn't at least a replication of the tag system from D:OS2 where you could flag your character as a soldier, scholar or whatever and it came up in some conversations. I guess you do define your character's background by picking Soldier, Acolyte or whatever during character creation, but I don't think I've seen a single line of dialog that references that background once you're out of character creation. I don't find the game is boring with Tav as a main character, but it is kind of weird how your chosen background is never once even mentioned.
