Who are your companions? Do you switch during gameplay?

I’m currently in act 3 and remain using Shadowheart, Lae’zel and Astarion.

Anyone else uses other companions?

Edit: by the way, my main character is a Monk named Jef :)

God damn it I never even thought about switching instead of resting. Holy shit that is so simple yet so effective

[–] hyperspace@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Eh. I usually have like 15 sacks of camp supplies, so it's not like resting is something you need to worry about

[–] LuckyBoy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but thats a good mechanic to go around all the companions

Can also respec them and steal the money back. Zero rest run is possible.

But what's the point I always finish the game with a metric ton of supplies left and a lot of plots are advanced only during long rests

Speedrunners have all kinds of self-imposed challenges to make the game more interesting.

[–] Vivarevo@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Game feels like one long ass dungeon anyway, no natural long rest points storywise.

[–] DudeDudenson@lemmings.world 2 points 1 year ago

I rather like being able to long rest practically at any time rather than at forced moments. But I've grown away from looking for a challenge in videogames these days I just want to chill

Story probably won't let you
