Oh boy, this is a tough one. I feel the companions are the best thing about the old games. It just feels wrong making me decide who i want to take with me that early in the game. I know that more play throughs will solve that problem but a lot of the fun in BG was switching in and out all the different companions. This decision doesnt feel very BG to be honest. All that being said, I will just wait and see how it goes. This new game has been such a yo-yo ride so far. At first I was like OMG a new BG game, YAY! Then first reveal i was like, "this isnt BG" at all YUCK! Then more news I was totally interested again. This is another Yuck! moment but depending on the story reason and the fun of replaying the game it could just be much ado about nothing.
