@stcymsn not a blank slate, but some parameters.
Like one of my favorite games, Tales from the Borderlands, Rhys is a good person, but bad options exist for him with the pressure of Jack/Hyperion.
Problem I had for inFamous was only one set of choices felt "real".
As above. In The Witcher series, Geralt's still recovering his memories; if our past experiences are what make us who we are, Geralt is technically a blank slate. You have basic parameters and the option to base his decisions on his character in the books, but it's up to you.
