i mean how do we end up that that many humans and elves? all the different races is part of what makes the fantasy world feel... fantastical. it's honestly kind of annoying
Because the companions were primarily designed for sex fantasies first. So its "pretty" races only with 1 exotic.
I hate to say it, but you are probably right. I mean, the companions we have, are interesting (apart from Halsin of course), but they didn't have to be humans, elves and in-betweens all.
In my eyes the companions in BG3 also seem to cover all the usual personalities found in dating games which for me is a pretty big indicator what they were designed for.
