Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General One more big Patch in August?

Hey, I'm doing the same thing!

Bought the game a couple weeks ago, then stopped playing once I found out that I had assembled my whole party after 2 hours. When I read the Steam description:

Since this was a top-billed feature, I had somehow expected there to be more to it -- similar to Baldur's Gate, perhaps. Since I've never encountered a cRPG with so little choice in one's party, I was taken totally by surprise and decided to wait for more content to be implemented.

I don't want to feel forced into teaming up with (what see as) rather flat characters like Madora, yet neither would I want to sortie out with Generic_Henchman #1 and Generic_Henchman #2 to quietly obey orders.

Yes, there's a level of impatience to it -- who isn't eager for new content in a game they like? -- but it's not the kind of blind, "at any cost" impatience that some here like to characterize. I'm sure that, like you, I'll just be mildly disappointed with each passing update, and then glad when those companions finally arrive.

I just got around it by playing two Lone Wolves. Hadn't tried that yet anyway. Though to be honest I haven't noticed a difference in the PC's.

Already done that but got stuck cus i scrwed up my builds

Hopefully we get a big patch that improves the UI.

There will be another patch this week or next, but I don't think it is the one with companions. The only thing I've seen mentioned as being included is improvements for the co-op dialogue system.

There will be 2 companions added; AFAIK they should level up if needed when you hire them. Brazuca took a look at some of the game files (here) and found mention of Frank the Archer and Alfred the Fighter.
