    That’s fair. I’ve also noticed dialogue in places that assumes you are not the origin character you are playing, or ignores when specific characters are not in your party.

    Tap for spoiler

    When you recruit Minsc as Shadowheart, there is a place in the dialogue tree where you refer to yourself in third person.

    There was a line suggesting I ask Lae’zel about a githyaki slate in Act 1 when I chose to kill her instead of join her earlier in the game.

    I wonder if the difference is because Karlach was a later addition to the game as an origin character.

    I’m very slowly working my way through my fifth Baldurs’s Gate 3 run since it went from early access to release. Decided I want to do all the origin characters and make decisions as they would.

    I’ve already done Gale, evil Dark Urge and now Shadowheart (spoilers below)

    In the beginning, I didn’t have Shadowheart save Lae’zel from the tieflings when she’s captured because to me she would want to be as far away from the githyanki as possible. I chose to romance Karlach because I never had before, and in my headcanon Karlach swayed Shadowheart from choosing Shar. Romanced the emperor and am going to try siding with him on a play through because I never have before lol

    I find something I missed on every single play through, and so far there is enough unique content in the origin runs to keep them interesting. Not sure which origin character I will try next but I am really enjoying playing as Shadowheart.

    Edit - I loved Cyberpunk 2077! At some point I want to replay as male V.
