If they take that down to one companion's quest in Baldur's Gate III, yet the companion quests aren't very long, and they revolve around the same main quests without greatly affecting them, then it would be even worse.
I gues that depends on how will that be done. O_o
I mean,
if you pick Minthara all she alterns in curent gameplay is that she adds single (even tho quite big and long) battle (against druids) ... and potentialy second one, that is conciderably shorter (in camp).
And that was single character ... it revoled around same main quest ... but it affected game outcome a lot.
And i cant say i was ever dissapointed by option to pick this side.
It's possible, but even if the Moonrise Towers is the place where the parasites are removed, I doubt that you'll have to choose one companion.
The reason that both paths pointed that way might be because the party split where you'll likely have to choose which party members to save will probably happen there.
Well, we can allways agree to disagree here.
At least one of us (maybe even both) is probably wrong, that should be certain ... one day we find out wich one.
But until then seems acceptable to me to simply state that we expect different outcome.
In Original Sin II...
...the collar issue did end before the second act, but the companions' quests didn't affect the story as greatly as you're saying the quests of the companions would in Baldur's Gate III.
Yup ... heard that before.
And i hope (read as presume) that Larian learned their lesson.
You know the main reason why i believe in this much involvement of our companions in story, is the fact that they are all "Origin characters" and we will be able to experience whole story through their eyes. Therefore i believe they will have major role in future story.
What they said was just a different way of saying that the party would be permanent after the first act.
I understand it can be seen that way ...
I hope you understand that it can also be seen other way. :P
I skip the rest, bcs i dont like reasoning for someone else, so ... cant quite react on that one.
