Nope ... What i say is that when you are creating a companion ... it dont really matter from perspective of amount of resources if that companion will be named Halsin and will be a Druid ... or Helia and will be a Bard ... or Jimmy and will be a Sorcerer.
Therefore argument about resources works only if you are deciding "another companion Y/N" ... Once you pick yes. You spend exactly the same amount of resources to anyone ... Well actualy, allready existing characters (in this game) are bit cheaper, than completely new one, since you allready have *some* of those asets you will need prepared ... examples used abowe were: some voicelines, model, and story ... you dont need to spend another resources to create model of Halsin, you have one allready.

Yes i know Karlach, Helya and Minsc were datamined in the past ... But as dataminers themselves keep pointing out (and people keep forgeting or ignoring) datamining stuff is as far from any confrimation as any speculation between players!
After all, based on that datamining Minsc was speculated to be Origin companion ... now we "know" (presumng that translation is corect) that he wouldnt be one. Based on that datamining Karlach is supposed to be a Paladin ... and yet, her Magic card clearly states Barbarian. Based on that datamining Helya dissapeared completely, and in some original builds Halsin were supposed to be her!
Its what you believe? That is totally fine ... But dont tell me its something we "know" ... bcs that is simply not true.

I certainly hope so ...
For that and many more, since i heared in another youtube video that another part of that german interview (that is still didnt even seen), Swen also confrimmed that some groups of the team are reporting "work done" and will from now on focusing solely on polishing and fixing, until the final release. It would certainly interest me wich part of the game are set in stone, since we are here and geting close to 1,0.

Then its good thing that nobody said that, right?
