We are just not in an era anymore where you can bang out generic companions in an after new with a junior staff writer and a portrait.


If Larian is going to stick to only five characters, then this is a pretty pathetic degree of variety. We have a chaotic evil rogue, a lawful evil gith, a cleric of an evil deity, a devil-dealing warlock, and a power-thirsty wizard. Not one classic hero (or even an interesting anti-hero...) in the bunch. I'd rather use hirelings than just about any of these assholes.

Please tell me we're getting hirelings.


Look, this is precisely the point. So far, EA has only opened 6 classes, and the companions cover 5 of them. Why don't we have, say, a classic hero like a paladin or a neutral caretaker like a druid? Well, probably because that class isn't ready yet. I do get that the personalities of the companions they released from the get go could have been more varied, but this is verymuch a work in progress.

And honestly, the fact that there are more classes yet to come also implies (to me) that there are more companions yet to come. We might not get a gigantic 25-person roster, but I would expect 10-12 by the time the game releases.

En una las entrevista prometieron mercenarios antes que salga el EA espero que cumplan D;!! o me dejen editar sus companion -.-

Bueno esos compañeros fueron creados para sigas lado malvado ya que pidieron a los jugadores jueguen el rol malvado en la EA por que habían creado sorpresas en lado malvado
