Oh absolutely. That's another thing DA:I did very very well. Although I have been running with Cassandra/Sera/Solas the whole time and think I have run out of lines now. Should swap some companions around a bit. smile

BG3 has fantastic companion potential, and I believe the voice lines for banter are already there, they just need to be enabled/implemented to trigger more often. I'm sure that will all come in time. We are playing an unfinished product after all. I think we often forget that, because the game looks and feels so polished and beautiful already - but there is plenty of room for improvement yet when it comes to companion interaction, from fixing the flow of animations in cutscenes to enabling more dialogue/banter more often in more locations while out exploring.

Yeah, if they developed the characters and interactions and made the stories solid, it would be a great game even with all the barrelmancy and free disengage cheese.

I can't imagine I am the only one who saw the trailer and bought the game hoping for an interactive cinematic experience.

It's not that the characters have any interactions with each other, they do exist. Maybe there aren't as many of them as in DA, but they definitely are.
If you check the latest datamining you can see that they are actually trying to add more. What will come out of this, I'm afraid we will see only after the premiere.
