It's quite possible I don't understand where this thread went, but I wasn't looking for revamped companion system. I think the companions could have had some eccentricities and still had the same role they currently have in BGIII.
They actually have eccentricities, just not fun or interesting ones to my sensibilities. Shadowheart's sour, jilted lover act; Lae'zel's constant growl, and Astarion's over-the-top "sexual charm" are all tiresome. The Loviatar priest's "dear one" is less creepy than Astarion's "darling".
So it's just a writing issue for you? What would you suggest?
