the main problem here is that Larian was almost-obsessively focused on creating and then pushing us to use their origin characters. And so the whole game is built around the idea that although you can play the game in other ways, the *best* experience within the game can be attained ONLY by playing as one of Larian's Chosen. And not only is this something I refuse to do per personal preference, it also just pisses the hell out of me as a matter of principle.
I will NEVER ever play BG3 as one of Larian's origin characters. Period. Not even if I replay the game a thousand times. So then I am guaranteed to NEVER ever have that *best* roleplaying experience from the game. And *that* is total crap.
This I agree with, 100%. I still enjoy the game a lot, but the fact my character's interactions throughout are very undeveloped compared to the origin characters does piss me off. My Tav mutely lumbering along while the others chat and bicker back and forth is frustrating, I feel left out. I absolutely love each and every one of those characters and how they work as companions, but I will never play
as one of them, that's just not the way I play rpg:s.
