Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Help Tips & Tricks Origins story development/completion

I'm in the underdark but seem to have explored very little of the origin storylines. Without looking for spoilers, is it fair to expect very little companion story development/completion in the EA area of the game? Could just be my play style but I feel that very little has actually been revealed about my companions and wondering if I've missed a lot of the game... Thanks for any replies!

yeah they say a lot. you trigger quite a few by long resting alot and using the illithid/wisdom checks in dialogue to start all the dream sequences. what I do is; after getting off the ship get all the companions (besides wyll), ask about them... long rest atleast twice before druid grove, get wyll. exhaust his dialogue. longrest, and each time you rest after this make sure you talk to everyone even if they haven't got a yellow ! above them. eveytime you use illithid power, long rest. lol
