So basically there is no info on that stuff yet ... well i hope they will talk about that stuff in the next live gameplay they relase, becouse so far they are repeating most of it over and over again. About "expanding world" I mean either giving new areas (as far as i know the map of PoE is just part of the planet Eola - so ther is possibility of adding new region to it, or even some island) or guests in the "old areas". I'm just curious if itll be separate as in BG2:ToB or it'll come together like in Gothic: Night of the Raven eg. And "at this point"? I AM talking about DLC/expansion xP Well - anyway - thanks for the answers

Hello, First of all I want to apologise in case such questions were already answered elswhere (they probably were), yet I would appreciate if you could answer me anyway - one more time , as well i'm sorry about my not-so-great english. To the point: 1.) How looks companion advancement at the beginning of their membership in our party: let say we have party where everyone is at level 7, then we meet another companion and want to add him/her to our team - what level will he/she have - is it fixed level for specific character (eg. Sagani will always join as with lvl 6) or their level will scale to our - so it'll also be at level 7? And then - we can only influence this companion advancement from that point or can we distribute their talents starting from level 1 (maybe there will be feature in the options to enable/disable auto-levelling)? 2.) Are there any possibility/plans of adding 3 more companions (barbarian,rogue,monk) to the game - maybe in DLC/expansion pack? As the mercenary creation feature is awsome, and i will use it surely on my n-playthrough , it is always better to have some companions with actual "soul and character" - especially in this type of game. 3.) How strong impact have our actions on the companions? Eg. playing as a good guy, while having paladin from "dark" order as a companion will affect his talents - or just what he says? I know that this matters when our main char is paladin, but is it true for companions as well? Can companions leave us if they dont share our means/perspective? 4.) i've heard that there will be additional content - will it be in form of expanding world (build in the same "game" as the main) or will it be separate story- like Throne of Bhaal for Baldurs Gate 2?

My first hero will be human wizard (mystic, rational and good).

Sweet Well I'm sure it will be great success ;] And about second part - will it use save importation system (what is the chance of that) - or is it too soon to tell?

Will it be possible in game options to hide/disable character markers (color rings around characters)?

What about the spellbooks? I heard that we can obtain/buy several during a game and each one contain specific numbers of spell slots. How does it look in the combat/gameplay perspective? Lets say our wizard has 3 spellbooks/grimuars in his posession and he (we) put in each diffrent combinations of spells - will it be possible to change the spellbook during a fight e.g. if we run out of spell uses or if we want to use a spell which isn't in our current spellbook? Or am I wrong/ill-informed and there is just one spellbook per character. And @Ganrich - maybe I am wrong - but i think you will only be able to cast as many times as you like at the high levels and only low level spells - medium/high level spells will have certain number of casts per rest/fight.

Mix would be awsome: DLC - with some additional classes, companions, equipment, spells/abilities, missions Expansion Pack - with some new story

This may be too soon, since the first game didn't come out yet, but are there any plans or any chance at all of making Pillars of Eternity 2? Or is diffrent game/title is more probable? And if yes - would it be more like continuation (possibility of importing saves from the first part - like BG1 and BG2) or rather new story with new characters? If Creators can't share this (?classified?) information - should the players at least keep their saves "just in case" - or would it be pointless? Keep up the outstanding work!
