Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback The "evil path" needs A LOT of improvement.

I do find it odd that we don't have a companion here that's actively encouraging us to go with the Absolute. Especially since Larian has said that they gave us the evil companions first to encourage us to go the evil route. Yet none of the companions really seem keen on going the evil route. Based on what Larian has said, it seems fair to assume we're not going to be getting a companion that's okay with the evil route in the future, so that leaves me feeling pretty...I don't know about the choice.

I definitely am not a fan of the evil route's execution, but in terms of the way it interacts with companions, it feels weird to me and seems like a poor choice on their part not to have a companion advocating for this route. They don't even have to know anything more about the cult than we do, they could just look at it and think "yeah, those guys have the right idea." Instead all our most evil companions seem like they would range from against allying with the cult to just ambivalent about it.
