Just wondering if you preffer to play a game which is somene else's story, or one which you feel is your own? Also, how much of a difference you think character creation makes to that and your Fantasy RPG experience overall?

For me character creation is such a core element in D&D style games, that I'm quite frankly gobsmacked by the amount of dumbing down we're now seeing in games based on D&D foundations.

I'm playing through BG2 currently, and such a large part of the charm is the vast array of races/classes etc. available to me. It will be a big shame if Bioware continue to go down this route IMO.

I feel strange making decisions for a character who has a preset,
predetermined background, characterization, etc. Creating a character,
like in most Bioware games, makes it easier for me to rationalize which
choices the character will make, rather than in others, where I feel
like they should be making choices without my input (because they're not
my character).

I don't find it too difficult regardless of what level of control the player has on character creation.

I had no problems making decisions for Lee in The Walking Dead, just as I didn't have difficulty making decisions for the Vault Dweller in Fallout.


Why do you find it challenging? It would seem, then, that the only way you could effectively feel comfortable making decisions for a character is iff the character is effectively a blank slate.
