3) It seemed that our partners very rarely enter the dialogue. In most cases, the conversation with npc is conducted by our Tav. Our partners just stand and do almost nothing. I would like our other partners to interfere in the conversation more often. Maybe beat our Tav and argue with each other. Maybe it is a field of early access and on release our partners will become more alive?
I agree that it would be great if our companions spoke up more often with their opinions and suggestions, and hope Larian are intending to add more of this.
I also hope they'll allow more than one companion to have their say, rather than what I think usually happens now which is that one companion takes priority. This can lead to puzzling results, such as when talking to Auntie Ethel for the first time with Astarion and Shadowheart. Both have potential dialogue here, with Astarion supporting and Shadowheart resisting telling Ethel about the tadpole. I’ve not done this in patch 9, but previously only Astarion’s line would appear, but Shadowheart would disapprove if I went on to explain my woes to Ethel, even though she’d not expressed any objections. I don’t see why both couldn’t just say their lines in a case like this.
