Could someone know whos German well look at the article and tell us what it said?
The english translation on the link image (automatic translation?) said: Swen Vincke told us in an interview that Minsc (and Boo) and Jaheira can be recruited as followers, but they can't be as Origin characters themselves like Elf Astarion can, for example.
Chubbots tweet suggest that Minsc won't be an origin, but still will be the companion. However, camp followers tends to refer to non-playable camp members, like Helsin or Scratch, baby Owlbear or Volo.
