Can you customise origin characters like appearance?
Is this possible like divinity original sin 2?

In the PFH the option seemed grayed out.
there is a respecc/edit appearance system in the game itself, according to the pfh, however no word on origin chars being able to use it, and given that they disabled the option during character creation it's very possible you can't edit them either...
Except the dark urge, obviously.
Damn I wish I could change appearance. This is obviously a downgrade from DOS2. Why have they done it like this? Is it because of pre-rendered cutscenes??

I didn't know the game had pre-rendered cutscenes, how did they manage to account for gear upgrades on the characters?

As far as i can tell the only pre-rendering is in the games opening video.

Play a custom char which is the same race/class as the Origin char you want to play.

You won't get their story, though...
All that said, full origin customization will most likely be one of the first mods to appear on the nexus...^^

I know, but you can create your own with the Origin char you want to interact with and experience some of their story. How much, I don't know. But that alone will be tons of dialog and story.

But each his own. I have zero interest in playing any of the Origin chars. But it would have been nice if the player had the option to adjust their appearance. The custom char creation looks amazing and they have improved it a lot from EA.

Well you can with the dark urge. You have full customization and a full origin story.

You can customize DOS2 origin characters' appearances, so I'd say you'll probably be able in BG3 too.

Well, I have no interest in playing any char which has horns, a tail, scales for skin or hooves for feet. lol.

But I can see the attraction for some with the Dragonborn. The game will offer so many options and choices, it is mind boggling. I am not personally concerned about missing out on some parts of it with char choices.

I wish. I'd change the hair of almost everyone... except Minsc. He can stay bald.

The dark urge can be completely customized. any race, any class, just like tav, but still has an own storyline.
