Hi I would like to ask if you guys could make another female companion, of any race even just to even it out. I don't know if you guys already have someone else already in mind for later so sorry in advanced if that's the case. I was also going to ask if you could change one of the two human men to to a different race but you already made concept art for em. I personally enjoy diversity and Baldurs gate has many many races to choose from. Like changing wyll to a dark elf would be amazing.

I'd like another, more likeable, companion too. I'd prefer they be female, but that's just my pref.

More companions are confirmed to be coming. The ones we got are mostly the evil-leaning ones.

As much as I'd prefer no humans as companions (or no more that one), I don't think changing Gale or Wyll would be something Larian would consider or a good idea in general.

Changing Wyll to be a Drow would totally ruin his story arch though. Changing Gale to be an Elf would be easier I think.

I'm all for adding more characters though, the current 5 is very limiting, especially since they are all mostly goodie two shoes. there's been some threads about how we are lacking a good introduction to an evil path, and a Female Drow Ranger who introduces the Absolute would be great. She could be a True Soul, so she also has a tadpole, but wasn't part of the crash.
Ranger is also currently the only playable class without a playable named character.

Ideally the cast should be twice what it is now, to give the player some choice in party members, and paths to take. Having at least one character of each class is the "ideal minimum" if you ask me.
There are a few characters I've run into that seemed to be possible candidates though, some I asked to join but they refused etc.

I would like a classic lawful good holy paladin and maybe a charismatic neutral rogue pirate so I have the option to not use Astarion.

There will be more companions. Do not worry about it.
