I miss my alignment
I think that would be great if you got to choose that and then after that some of your subclass choices would be changing. Say as a Rogue you get Assassin instead of Thief if you are rolling a evil character. But yes more of that and of deities, even a atheist character is interesting in a world where you can throw spells based on your god. Also this makes for great flavor of your character, and can give you some minor dialogue choices.
But yeah, game is a EA but it has to focus more on being a BG3 then DOS3. And with that comes a lot of what is written above, there is something to base the game on. So please Larian, don't ruin it.
