Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Can you not remove coop party members ever?

Started a game with someone, they are no longer playing, so now im in act 2, with a hero i dont want.

I cant remove them from my party AT ALL!?!?

So i have to do main story quests twice, i have to deal with immersion breaking conversations where i literally have to restart the same dialogue and quest progress start to finish because it treats this second character as a totally separate main player character?

Why is this designed like this? Is there a console command or something that i can use to delete this character or do i seriously have to start over a 30 hour play through just to get rid of a party member?

Yeah, it really is a big oversight.

If you play with NPC companions, you can dismiss them. If you play with recruit companions, you can dismiss them. But if you play with a character created by another player from the start, you're stuck with them for some reason.

With a game as long as this one, I feel that a lot of people are going to start their game with a couple of friends that won't stick with it till the end and get stuck with their characters.

Sure you can respec them with the mirror, but it would be nice to be able to kick these characters out.
