They are still easy as **** to play, and any build with a Jedi Knight or Sith Warrior that lacks Shein is disgusting anyway. You deserve to be punished.

"easy to play? eh? Do Ravengers or ToS then and come back and tell me they are "easy to play"

 

The fact that a fricken Sin can take more punishment then a Mara in medium armor AND do better dps is simply sad.

So half of the interesting companions are not even story related. GJ Biower. This is Dragon Age Awakening all over again.

Doesn't matter if it doesn't make sense. Game is still pretty easy. But as I would never play a Sentinel or Marauder, like I said Form V>, whatever. I've seen plenty of people say otherwise even on the current build of the game. Assassins/Shadows are the best tanks in the game, better than any other, so that's a them thing, not a Sentinel/Marauder thing.

Seems like it, but the confirmation that we finally get to kill Skadge make it worth it. I'd sacrifice all the pretend romances in the world for that. 

[TheChris92]

So where does this confirmation stem from?

Datamining.

Sins are a better dps then maras/sents now which was the opposite pre 3.0 Not only are they range(which right now in trOR, if you're melee, you're screwed) they can deal reliable dps no matter the situation same with snipers, commandos and even bloody power tech dps. Do Ravengers or ToS with a melee, it is complete hell, the opposite of range where you just sit cozy and just press buttons.

 

It is a fact that 3.0 and on, Mara/sents are not really viable anymore in end game.

Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but you say you never play Sentinal/Marauder, yet you know they are easy to play.

 

Have you ever played them then? Because if you haven't then you got no room to talk.

If I'm reading this correctly (I hope I'm not) a good chunk of the existing companions, including all the romanceable ones, are relegated to appearances where you can summon them as mute combat helpers, but canonically in terms of the story, they're never even there. If that ends up being accurate, I would've almost preferred if they had completely cut them out by killing them off or something once KotFE starts instead of having them sort of be there, but not really.

[TheChris92]

The game is generally easy now in no small part due to the streamlining of the mechanics and skill trees -- which are less skill trees now, and more; Choose a path and we'll do all the work for you, you dozy ******.
Back in the vanilla days I had a bit trouble with The Emperor as he'd attack me with all of his clones, teleporting all over the room. Now? Not so much.

You're reading it wrong. I've beaten this game as a Sentinel. That was a year ago. I don't like the play style but it's still incredibly easy to play. However, House is talking about the game now, and the game now is not the game it was a year ago. In that area, I can only deal with what people have told me since then, and people have told me that:

 

It is a fact that 3.0 and on, Mara/sents are not really viable anymore in end game.

Is clearly not true. The idea that an entire class is not playable because it doesn't do as well as another is false. It may not be as OP or as good as it was before, but it's not unplayable.

That's the general idea, unfortunately. Some of them may have lines in the story, but they aren't canonical companions. Think Awakening/ME2/ME3 kind of thing, where they make cameos and such.

It may be because a couple of the new companions will be filling that role. (Lana Beniko and Theron Shan)

 

There will almost certainly be LIs who are involved with the story, they just don't appear to be the existing ones. They're pulling a Mass Effect 2, basically.

The entire premise had ME2 vibes ringing like crazy even before this whole datamining thing. Sad to see that such thoughts weren't premature

Great. The bland Troy Baker character alongside the writer's pet girl.

I said not viable, I did not say not playable. The chances of getting into a Ravenger/ToS run as a melee is very low as many people will say range only because everyone knows that being a melee in 3.0+ end game content is hell that has a good chance to make the group wipe.

Ravengers and ToS are utter hell for melee dps, I rather fight NiM Kephess or Operator X, least I'm not being screwed over by mechanics because I'm not a range dps.

I solo'd him as a guardian tank because T-7 was useless (and giving a tank a tank character was lulzy)

Yay! Fleshed out romances for "Epic Fail" Shan and "I'm the Minister of Intelligence but fail to notice that my second in command is a republic spy" Beniko!

 

Well I'll have to act like a creep then and stare at a mute Ashara all day...

T-7 was a great asset to me during that fight!

Duel Lightsabers FTW!

I was a tank, ergo I used Kira and Kira was too busy having issues fighting droids in the last mission despite having good gear.
