And I now have a Dwarf portrait for my game!

Witcher 3 mutilations. Of course, with the isometric view it will be harder to see such things, but it gives them the opportunity to have the head fly up and hit the 'inside' of the monitor screen.

If we don't get a dwarf as a full companion, there may be a fire comin'...

Dwarves only as sidekicks? One does not simply sidekick a dwarf!

I want to BE a dragon! Failing that, I will ride upon it, getting overly excited and potentially making the dragon very uncomfortable as a I fondle it inappropriately. Either that, or I start a new romance in the game.

*Glares loudly*

Yes, Dwarf companions are a must! I fully endorse this campaign, but then I think there is a LOT more that needs to be done for the stumpy peoples! The portraits are a big issue for me: not only are there only two of them for males and three for females, but they are very traditional dwarves. Now, nothing wrong with traditional, but considering that dwarves are supposedly a major part of the Vailian Republics there needs to be stylistically specific dwarves also, such dwarf with tricorn, or dwarf with nautical goatee. How can I make Pirate Dwarf without appropriate picture! Considering the very specific-ness of it too and the lack of dwarf artwork in general it is very hard to find custom portraits to suit. It is the same issue I have with the Pale Elves: not only are there only a handful of them, but not one of them feature the very specific main power of Pale Elves, the ability to grow beards! And considering the very specific appearance of Pale Elves as an Obsidian take on it, again finding custom portraits is downright impossible! Now, I know most people play humans apparently, but then when the only decent portraits are for humans what choice are you giving people? It is a self-fulfilling prophecy! Get it together Obs and give us some Stumpy Love!

*Suddenly, the Obsidian Pearl bursts into the thread, its mighty prow cutting through the sea of posts, while its Captain, the indomitable Jazz, Bringer of Tea, stands with one foot upon its bow, pointing the way with one arm held aloft holding a cutlass, the other holding a pistol, yet another cutlass held betwixt his teeth, and a brace of pistols holstered across his might chest, vengeance gleaming in his eye as he sets his deadlights upon the OP* Yarrr!!! Pull her around lads and give that OP a full volley of iron to his face and then keelhaul the scallywag! On the topic on hand, me and the lads think nay! Nay we say! Ye might want to leave yer mates at home and be Billy No-Mates when yer set blades with yer nemesis, but I have the lads wit' me fer a reason: so we can stand together, and fill them with lead from twenty paces and then cut down with cold steel what is left! Now, where be the rum??!

*Says Promancer stuff* . *Promancer Sighted!* OPEN FIRE!!! ALL WEAPONS!! Despatch Dread Pirate Eder! To KEELHAUL their bodies!

Hey guys, you do realise that relationship doesn't necessarily mean romance and... *Realises logic will not stop them* *Turns to the men* Batten down the hatches! Reef the mainsail! Secure the rigging! And get those guns loaded! *Looks off to the horizon* For the Promancers are coming...

Actually, a Fampyr Eder coming back for revenge on the player could be rather cool! Would provide an 'experience' for those who killed him. Or if they fed him to the blood pool they could get Eder's body possessed by all the souls fed to the blood pool coming after them.

I'd like the existing ones to be expanded upon rather than increasing the number available. And before anyone says "Why not both?" they can only spend so much time and I am talking about my preference if they have to choose, they are restricting the number of companions in order to better flesh them out after all.

In no particular order, since I tend to like most of them for vastly different reasons and because my favourite changes with the moon: Pillars of Eternity Witcher 3 Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines Alpha Protocol Final Fantasy 7 (with 9 being a close second, not played 15 yet so won't comment, oh and I do NOT include the spin offs for 7 there like Advent Children or Crisis Core, I feel they actually detracted from and missed the enjoyment of 7) Baldur's Gate used to be up there but its been knocked out by Pillars, yes I consider Pillars to actually be a better game than BG even with the nostalgia factor.

I just looked it up and oh my god it's awesome! The correct term for a group of hamsters is a horde! That's right, officially they form hordes! Boo: For the Horde!

Damn true!

You mean his other "staff" As long as it has a knobly bit on the end like a proper wizard's staff!

And a conversation with him. I should do a more recent playthrough at some point. Especially now that I have lost all my saves after my hard drive died earlier this week.

Arrr thar be only one romance this here game be having: the love between a man and his ship! Exotic, erotic love that can only be truly expressed by mounting the wooden lady and gettin' splinters all over a man's sword!

It sounds like we be getting a ship, yarr! Me home base be pulling alongside yer home base and be pillaging yer booty, yarrrr! Yo ho ho and a bottle of pop!

Kana's family was FROM the Deadfire Archipelago, but they had moved to Rauatai before he was born. As of Pillars 1 they all lived in Rauatai, not the Deadfires. Not to say they couldn't turn up, but it would be no more likely than for Eder's family to turn up I think (Eder's family returned to Aedyr I believe according to the short story).

This regarding Tyranny. I'm sorry, it has a good story and everything, but I literally stopped at your trial with Tunon, despite being near the end, because I just could not put up with the combat anymore. Clicking through all the lit up icons and then starting at the beginning again is not tactical, you could probably get a bot to do it.

Hmm going by the class names and the hybrid names we already seen (all four of them), I suspect they are aiming for one-word names. Though the name can be a portmanteau of two other words I guess, or just two words smushed together, like Spellsword.

Oh, another thing I noticed, Power Source sound similar in theme and intent as in GURPS. In that you can apply a Source modifier to Powers such as Biological, Psionic, Magical, etc which apply features to make that Power more appropriate to its source and there are Power Talents that affect how good your character is with those Powers of a certain source (most of this is introduced in GURPS Powers sourcebook).

Looking at your avatar it seems they are touching you right now. ~laughs~ That avatar is of BRIAN BLESSED, THE GREATEST HAM TO EVER GRACE THIS WORLD!!! So yeah, probably...

After watching the video update on multiclassing, I must say I like that each class combo has a unique name like they do in Grim Dawn. Sorry, but little touches like that touches me in my special places.
