How considerate of you. So you get all the edgy/manipulative/conniving/evil companions that you like, but I only get one good companion for my good party?


Blame the devs, they wanted to bring us baddies at first. 3 more good companions incoming so you will get your dream team someday.
Still, nothing prevents you from demanding more sexy good companions.

Yes I know we are supposed to be getting good companions at some future point. But (a) I remain skeptical about these "good" companions we will supposedly get (because they not only need to be good-aligned but also likeable), and (b) the interesting discussions about the companions are happening now and I want to weigh in too and not wait to do so many, many months from now when everyone else has moved on.


(Sorry, I appear to comment a lot on your posts today. :P)

I have some faint hope that the currently unreleased companions still have some chance of being tweaked according to our feedback. It would be easier than tweaking the current ones, anyway. Two of those characters appear tentatively ok to me, although I haven't read the datamining thread, so I've got no info on any details. (I know about them at all because people have exactly 0 respect for the "tag your spoilers" rule. Speaking of which...)

I am terribly, TERRIBLY worried about Minsc. I just don't think he should be featured in BG3 as a full companion/origin and I don't trust Larian to not butcher his character. Porn scenes with him would be crossing the line in a particularly distasteful manner.

I'm pretty sure that Verte was jokingly referring to the spammed "we demand more sexy [whatever]" threads one user produced en masse. But besides that: +1000 to what you said, couldn't agree more.
