Idk I did not hate it in DOS2 (was a bit surprised tho). The other BG games had so many that you could find all over the world that I went for the ones I wanted and left the rest to their faith. I never changed the party ones I had the companions I wanted.
Only games I ever changed party was dragon age and that was mostly for story reasons.
However, I did not like the 'hiring' of companions in DOS2. Those were really boring.
I would like the option of changing companions tho or finding some new ones after act 1. Hopefully ones you don't have to 'hire' like in DOS2.
I get that but shock value is never a good enough reason to do anything, deffinatly not repeatedly (which also makes it less shocking and thus just plain pointless).
I don't think is good or bad because of chock value. What I meant was that I did not mind it because at that point I was already invested in the party I had. Besides changing your party in DOS2 was not easy. There was no campfire or menu where they wait till you show up. they were all over ford joy. It simply did not matter to me at that point in act2.
