I am wondering the same thing. I may have to start a new run after the patch maybe? Did you start your run before or after that patch that fixed her?
I started the run after the new patch.
Hmm, ok yeah I think maybe they meant mostly chatter and occasionally responses to things happening like the other characters do. Minthara sits in the same bucket as halsin, she was never meant to be a companion originally and so doesn't have the same depth of writing that any of the origins or Minsc and jaheira have.
