Are we going to be getting a companion AI of some sort in the game? Managing 5 characters with all these abilities is an awful lot of work, I would really like to have at least some basic rules like attack anything that attacks you, cast a heal on any party member below 50% stamina, etc.
I just played through BG and BG2 enhanced editions (for the first time :D), and the transition to needing to micro manage the party was rather unpleasant. PoE feels like I've got a whole party of wizards to look after, I'm spending ten times longer paused than unpaused in combat right now.
Maybe this has already been covered and I missed it, but I just had to ask.
Great work so far, I can't wait for the game to ship!
