Do you play origin characters?
Posted On: March 12, 2026

I admit: I don't. .


Playing a recruitable origin character never felt right. Sure, it gives me a story and a background. But, the idea that this person would exist in the game even if I didn't select them made me seem like I was depriving my playthrough of an extra character. .


Do you play origin characters? Do you think people like me are missing out by not playing as Gale or Lae'zel?


Question from user Medium-Theme-4611 at BaldursGate3 at reddit.com.


Answer:

Nah, I dont. Partly because I absolutely LOVE their voice acting, and playing as one of them removes that aspect.


The main reason being my shorty bias is far too strong, and not a single one of them is a halfling or gnome!.
