Ngl reading about P:WotR on GOG store page made me really hyped about the game. Though, I did get hyped about P:K too, then gave up on it after around 5 hours. Granted, I played right after it was released, and apparently there have been a lot of changes to it now.

This is too much to hope for, I wouldn't hold my breath. Party size and number of companions were among the very first issues I brought up long ago when this game was just announced, when I still thought/hoped it would follow more closely in the original game's footsteps. "We have few companions for you because they're sooo deeply developed" is a lazy excuse which is at best based on their opinion of what is considered "deeply developed", and at worst a complete lie. Devs are supposed to figure out the right balance that allows them to create well developed companions without each taking such a huge amount of time that they can't do more than 6.
I agree. Minimum 12 fully fleshed-out companions is what it should be. Around 6 is what I expect we will get.
