Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Poll: Which of these character creation features do you want?

Also it might be a bit weird when all the young and hot party members are horny for some 90-year old dude.

I also like the others, especially "Rolling for ability scores " (although...I would abuse it 😅)

I don't know what the other two are (bonds and flaws/custom races)

Bonds
Bonds might answer any of these questions: Whom do you care most about? To what place do you feel a special connection? What is your most treasured possession?

Your bonds might be tied to your class, your background, your race, or some other aspect of your character’s history or personality. You might also gain new bonds over the course of your adventures.

Flaws
Finally, choose a flaw for your character. Your character’s flaw represents some vice, compulsion, fear, or weakness—in particular, anything that someone else could exploit to bring you to ruin or cause you to act against your best interests. More significant than negative personality traits, a flaw might answer any of these questions: What enrages you? What’s the one person, concept, or event that you are terrified of? What are your vices?

Personally, I've picked :
- Body type options (the current male one is too muscular for how I would envisioned non-STR based characters, especially casters, like Gale).
- Choose starting weapons and armor (I don't normally play STR based characters but players that do should be able to pick heavy armor)
- Tasha's custom races (I just think it's better and makes more sense to me)

Yep, I can’t be trusted with ability score rolling either. And given the number of hours each playthrough takes, I don’t think I could manage to force myself to just play a character with the rolls as they fell, much as I appreciate in principle the skill and interest in making the best of what you get.

But while I personally probably need the discipline imposed by point buy or standard array, I can see why folk want rolling so wouldn’t object to it being added as an option even though I’d need to try to force myself not to use it.

Yes, for instance, instead of +2 DEX and +1 INT for High elves, you can to put +3 abilities score wherever you want (max +2 per ability, max 20 total), like +2 DEX and +1 CHA.

What I would like to see the most, is saving and reloading the character, before starting online play, it seems like only natural to prepare the character beforehand. Or as useful import pre-defined character.

Now there are also races - more the better, goblin race could be fun, but probably not gonna happen.

Finally, just to get back old days of re-rolling endlessly - dice rolls, although I admit there is some cheese spending hours in the char-creation, all in all this feeling you were able to roll well, like above 90 or 100 is great.

Face / Body type - yes 100%
But, one very important thing! -

It bothers me to no end that rapiers get sheathed on your back.

So I am not the only one 😄 It would be nice if our character could wear it at the hip.

I can only guess that it's a clipping issue, but IMO it'd still look better on your hip than on your back. Like, entire armor sets have clipping issues by themselves so I don't think it'd be a big deal if rapiers/maces/longswords clipped through characters' arms a bit.
