GM4HIM: Can you be a little more specific?
Like where that conversation happened in good play and was missin in the other.
There is no way to tell if you arent just connecting unrelated dots right now. :-/
But when i was thinking about it ...
When I got to the Underdark, it's like my companions are just there, now. No dialogue. No convos. It's pretty much just business, like the fun is dead and there's no real interaction or nothing. It's like the game has just stopped and In playing through an unfinished area.
It seems like direct oposite to me ...
I mean what is our business down there anyway?
Minthara sended us to Mountain pass ...
Gith to the creche ...
I mean the only reason to get there is to search for a Nightsong ... wich on the other hand sound like HUFE detour for "no fun all business" character. :-/
They have some animals and Volo.
Actualy they dont.

Goblins have him quite litteraly.
