You got this thread, and then you got this other thread that wants just 3 max. Meanwhile I'm content with my 2 lone wolves as I replay DoS2; learning from "sin tee" (on youtube) who facerolls these games solo - including this EA. So folks want a party of 6 while the game can basically be cleared with 1 skilled player. Yeah I mean everyone is welcome to ask for this and that but my thoughts are Larian won't be changing a thing. I played through EA 2.5 times and that inspired me to fire up DoS2 again. I mean I loved BG 1 and 2, and while I'm fully aware that this opinion is unpopular with D&D purists, I'd rather play BG3 using DoS2 mechanics (augmented with the latest environment and combat mechanics in BG3) instead of what is currently there in BG3 (which is not BG1 and not DoS2). I mean I don't mind it, but things like being able to carry over APs makes the combat so much more enjoyable.
Franky as I replay DoS2 I realize how freaking awesome the game is (or was?) and the concept of source points in combat, the companions, basically just about everything blows this EA out of the water; and this game is like 2 or 3 years old! But hold up the new cutscenes!?!?! right!??! Yeah sure if they didn't look so god damn goofy, glitchy, clippy!! In it's current form I'd like to stick to simple 2D chat box with outstanding voice narration. Where is my Lohse-like companion in BG3? Where is my Imoen? If I could I would push all the offered companions right off of the Nautiloid not just Lae'zel.
I was waiting for BG3 for like 20 yrs but at this point I wish they just made DoS3 instead of what I'm seeing in BG3.
