I never quite understood why people disliked him! :o I got slightly shocked when I realized how popular he was to hate. He was one of my favorites (although tbh, I did not dislike any companion in PoE1 x] ). Did I as a player or my character pretty much ever agree with him? Nope, but I still liked him a lot and I found his character fun to bring along for the snide comments alone. c: I was really bummed out that there was no mention of him anywhere in PoE2 and that I couldn't even ask Magran about it. :<


Absolutely loved the concept. BUT! I hated how companion conversation were "time-locked" to the main story. I had almost 12 irl hours of complete silence from my companions as I was doing side quests - just to have them all jump me at the same time once I started progressing the main story. It was really immersion breaking and I am *still* salty about it. But if they could solve that by letting companions interact even while not progressing the main story - then I'd be the first one to encourage Obsidian to do more stuff like that in upcoming games! :]


I was not at all as fond of the new ones as the old ones and that fact is... Least said reflected upon my selection of party members. I found Xoti plain boring, Tekehu wasn't much better imo, Serafen was fine but he was not getting along with my character and Maia was great - but she was filling the exactly same function as my MC combat-wise. :< I did like most of the "CR-characters" (aka, Ydwin, Fassina, Rekke etc), but they were - like you said - nowhere near as fleshed out and hence it just didn't feel as fun to bring them along. :<
