I finally saw the animated trailer they apparently put before the real one and that was actually really fun. I loved seeing the group interacting like that. They actually felt like a real party, rather than the disparate, disconnected posse they've been in EA. I desperately hope we get more of that kind of interaction in the actual game and the companions aren't just all off in their individual islands, only having meaningful interaction via the PC. Even if they're not meant to feel like a cohesive group just yet, they should at least feel like a group of people travelling together and developing dynamics.
I also loved Lae'zel's liine about being very funny by githyanki standards. I love the trope of the stoic badass actually being super funny by the standards of their own people. I hope that's actually something that comes out more in the full game. I can believe it too because Lae'zel is actually very eloquent and well-spoken, which lends itself to a certain kind of dry humor really well.
Also the video reminded me; what is the deal with that frog? Seriously. I've encountered it several times and even used speak with animals and have never been able to understand what it was and why it was so tough. Like... seriously what's the story? I assume Ethel screwed him over somehow but I do not have any idea about the details. Someone DM me if they have an explanation and don't want to distract the thread, because I really want an answer.
