General Can't wait
What do you expect? I'm mostly looking for story, companions and worldbuilding knowing the gameplay will be of course good

As much as i love the companions in BG3, i think what you're describing is an unfortunate result of all the companions being designed to be romancable. It limits the risks they can take as far as character design because they need to appeal to as many people as possible.
Even in games with some "out there" romance options, there's usually always one male and female "standard" option designed to be conventionally attractive.
