Do we have any info about that? I know that the characters they introduced so far were only the evil and neutral ones, with the other side companions coming out at a later date but do we know if they will also be origin characters? Because if so, so much freaking work will have gone into the origin characters that would have been better used eslewhere its going to be staggering.
I know lots of people refer to Larian stating the current companions are neutral or evil but like you said, is this true? I'm starting to think these are it except for three more. We know Minsc is coming and he's good. Karlach, is highly likely but honestly, I don't see her as good as she basically hires your group to assassinate her problem. I believe there's a halfling Helga or something like that...who might be a werewolf?
I really think, this is pretty much it.
They haven't communicate about that but there are no reasons evil and neutral companions would be origins while good ones wouldn't.
They will be origins too.
We could just hope they'll add a bunch of normal companions. You know, the kind of companions that could follow you for a quest or two then just become your friend or something.
But I don't really think they will add this. They talked about "mercenaries", which usually means blanked custom characters.
I don't think we will see more origin characters. Maybe one more. It's because of their marketing art on their banner. There's no more space to add another character except maybe one more between Gale and Shadowheart. So basically all the origin characters are unlikeable individuals with special qualities or backgrounds.
