More is better. More allows us greater flexibility in party design, especially since each companion in DA2 has only one weapon style.

More allows the gaming experience to tak a huge hit(in my opinion).. the narrative shapes around the characters you interact with.. ie your party 

The characters don't need to be that well developed.  I can roleplay them as well as BioWare can, and if I do it they don't have to be the same every time through the game.

Characters without default personality are easier to be roleplayed, aparently.

Oh right I forgot Bio fanboys are completely devoid of logic. My bad. Fact: Bioware wasn't this small little independant indy dev that got swallowed up by the big bad EA, no matter how many times you guys tell yourselves differently.

I don't mind having few party members, small and intimate the way I like it. : )



The good thing this time around is that you have one character of each class and gender, so you can have all-male parties (unlike DA:O where you were required to have any combination of Leliana, Wynne and/or Morrigan) and all-female parties. Plus you get each fighting style per class per character.



Aveline- Female Weapon & Shield Warrior

Fenris- Male Two Handed Warrior

Isabela- Female Dual Wielding Rogue

Varric- Male Archer Rogue

Merrill- Female -Likely Healing/Crowd Control- Mage

Blonde Dude- Male -Likely Offensive- Mage



Plus:

Sebastian- Male Archer Rogue

Carver- Male Warrior (Probably Two Handed or your choice)

Bethany- Female Mage (Probably Offensive)



That totals 9 potential companions in all, sure one gets the Virmire treatment but still that's plenty and more balanced this time around. You can probably build Aveline OR Fenris as a tank, Isabela OR Varric (or Sebastian) as your scout, and Merrill/Blonde Dude as whichever kind of mage you need, so your not stuck with any particular party members *just because you need them*. Good move on Bioware's part.

Wait, what?  When did anyone ever say that?  I was saying that Bioware went into EA for a steady and reliable source of funding, not that they were struggling.  If anything, you implied that by saying they "sold out."

I tell myself differently every morning.  2 plus 3 doesnt equal 5.  you know me well

also its redundant to say independent indy when indy is short for independent.  Insulting people does make you more right?  Posted Image

Fenris can only equip two-handed weapons, so I'm not sure if he would make a good tank. With a different build, maybe, hmm.

CoS Sarah Jinstar's "Indian" name is Runs With Premise.  Or is it Premise Wearing Thin.  I suppose it depends on how many times she's posted in the thread.

I don't mind fewer companions provided they have as much if not more content to make up for the lack of other companions. My bigger issue is how having fewer companions ties into our inability to have the companions change weapon styles. If I want a DW rogue, but hate Isabela, I'm out of luck.

what bioware should do is make it possible to re-spec characters rather than just add more.

I imagine given how they've Hot Rod Samurai'd all the animations, that wouldn't work too well. Seeing as all the races and males and females have separate rigs, Isabela as a DW rogue wouldn't necessarily translate to Varric flipping and twirling around as a male dwarf DW rogue unless they made those animations work for that rig.

But yeah, re-spec  is a good thing.

Obviously the solution is just throw more money at it. Have you considered they may have the exact number of companions they wanted to have?

Once again, as you always do in every discussion I've ever seen you in you take your argument and flush it down the toilet by sounding thoroughly bitter and pulling out the 'fanboy' term.  If you want to use that label so freely on anyone that still has a good thing to say about them then call yourself a troll because it would have about the same level of accuracy.  For once in your life, make a point in a logical way, stick to your point and don't come off sounding like a whiney female dog.

(I happen to agree with your assessment of the whole Riccetelo thing.)
