Why am I not surprised that the JC and SI companions are getting the short end of the stick just like those JCs and Sis themselves pretty much got ignored in KotFE and KotET, sigh? Now I suspect Andronikos and Iresso will get 15 second Alliance alerts...if that much, and probably less for the others when (and if) they get around to them. Be nice if those classes could get the amount of story time that some of the other classes returning companions got. Especially the agents. Don’t get me wrong, I like the agent story. But while the focus on Scorpio made sense in the context of the longer story, for that reason it would have been nice if they’d given another class a chance at a returning companion in KOTFE instead of giving agents a second reunion chapter with Kaliyo... And the BH not only got two companion return chapters, one of them was Gault. who is apparently their golden boy, sigh. Some days I feel like it’s the kiss of death for a companion’s role in the game if I really like them, while disliking one seems to guarantee confetti and parades and spotlights on them...
Bleh. The confirmation of a new romance with Arcann is good news...but still no second woman LI for women, sigh. I haven’t heard much else of what came out of the livecast today, but it’s probably best for my blood pressure that I wasn’t watching to hear how people had to pry an admission that they were finally working on getting more than Qyzen back for the JC...
What I really need is a new game to get wrapped up in, but BW was the only one doing really in-depth story based games, and it’s pretty clear they were moving away from that, even with DA (especially with the rumor that the DA game in the works does not continue the storyline...)
