Now with 1 party member reduction and 3 returning characters: Pallegina, Aloth and Eder that i really want them to be in my party for every playthrough, the party composition really limited my flexibility. I love the options for the formation, the added flexibility to add the 6th member (be it gameplay or for storywise). After playing the game now that it has released, i would say i'd still prefer 6 party character. Prior to the release, it was not appropriate to comment on the party character change as many would say your opinion have no basis if you have not played it yourself. I feel the decision to move to a 5 member party has really limited the story and character stories in this regard. What I'm getting at is due to the 5 member party decision, I feel I'm missing out on more character development and story. This means I will miss out on the party member I just obtained from the Water Guild.Īn argument could be had that this inspires multiple playthroughs (something I'm fond of), but knowing that I used to have a 6 party team still sticks in my craw, since I could have instantly added this new party member and started using them and learning more about their story and their abilities. One of these said members is someone I would like to drop, but since I can only make a 5 party group, this is something I don't want to do, since their relationship is starting to form. Through these hours, I've learned more about each member and now it's come to a point where certain members are concerned about other members and want to help them. I am roughly 18 hours into the game and currently have 5 party members. I came across a Water Guild building where an additional party member can be obtained. This morning before work, I played for about 20 minutes and was finishing up exploring the second map of Neketaka (the one north of the starting map/dock area). Let me explain another reason (4,721) why: I was not a fan of the idea then and after playing Deadfire a little more, I can confidently say I'm still not a fan of the decision. I know there has been a ton of controversy around Obsidian's decision to drop from a 6 person to a 5 person party.
