And what exactly does that ADD to a story centric TAV ? What do you roleplay? This isnt a sandbox game or MMO. Its a STORY DRIVEN game. The story is set in stone.

Your class? (this can be done with a story TAV)
Your dialogues? (this can be done with a story TAV)
Quests? (this can be done with a story TAV)
Do you write a biography of your TAV? (this can be done with a story TAV)

There is ZERO downside of having a story TAV to your roleplaying imagination. This has been proven by dozens of RPG games in the last 35 years similar to BG3.

There is however a downside of NOT having a story TAV. You get a hollow tree trunk like what we have now.

It just reminded me of the bowl of goat's milk that old Winthrop used to put outside his door every evening for the dust demons. He said the dust demons could never resist goat's milk, and that they would always drink themselves into a stupor and then be too tired to enter his room..
