I think I will pass on this now. At least BG 1 and 2 stuck to the d&d rules and not change everything for the causal whiny players.
There is a lot of whining going on, but it’s never coming from the “casuals.”
I’m just happy I have an easy way to respec Minsc into a barbarian without mods.
Hm, I keep hearing this assumption over and over, but do we for sure have actual confirmation companions can be completely reclassed? I would assume it would just be to level 1, perhaps subclasses included, but that's it. I don't have a strong feeling about it, will probably keep everyone their own class, but small quibbles like being able to change Shadowheart out of the terrible trickery domain would be nice.
