Which companion do you dislike the most? (so far)

[plasticsoda]

Purely on a personal basis, judging by their personality and character and not because you find their writing anoying or because you hate elves.

And for the record, lurking this place has shown me that some people have developed unhealthy relations with these character, so if you throw a hissy fit because someone insulted your waifu, I will just assume you're mentaly ill

#1 - Wyll - Spends every conversation gloating about himself and his noble cause yet makes a pact with the devil in exchange of power. Think about it, is Karlach the first 'innocent' person the Blade of Frontiers has been sent to slay by his patron?

#2 - Halsin - Goody two shoes, tree hugging, pot smoking hippie. Man is too honest for his own good, only fun when he's ravaging everyone in bear form. Probably impregnated a boar or something and run away to the druid grove to avoid paying child support.

#3 - Karlach - Potty mouth.

====The ones I like=====
#1 - Lae'zel - Perfect frog wife. Nuff' said.

#2 - Shadowheart - Good banter, enderaring personality. Also manipulative and will take you for a ride, nothing pure about her.

#3 - Gale - Fun to hang around, tries to be good, would probably kill everyone in camp for the slightest promise of power.

#4 Astarion - I like bringing him around to torment him.

With that said, praises to Larian for writing good alligned companions with not so obvious character flaws

I have a love and hate relationship with Astarion and I definitely don't like Laezel, OK with everyone for the most part but Wyll gets on my nerves sometimes

[hotdaniel]

I hate Gale. His stupid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ got my companions killed multiple times, wasted multiple revivify scrolls, plus feeding him magical items but he won't tell me why he needs them. He sucks! I dismissed him because it let me but then I realized I couldn't solve the Necromancy of Thay without him so he's back for now. But I still hate him.

[Crom]

Minthara - psychopat

Halsin - sociopat

Astarion - idiot

Wyll - plain stupid

Lae'Zel - anoying lvl 3
Minsc - anoying lvl 2
Gale - anoying lvl 1

Karlach - tiresome

Shadowheart - emo freak

Jaheira - grandma

It gets revealed eventually.
It still makes absolutely no sense and doesn't make his character more interesting either.

List of Favorite companions from favorite to least. (Not including Minsc and Jaheira because they are clearly top. No arguing against some of the most iconic party members from both Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 even though Larian nerfed them)
1) Shadow heart - Hottest party member, cleric class very useful, goth girl you can fix vibe.
2) Karlach - Even though she is a ♥♥♥♥ she is a useful fighting type & she isn't a complete b***h
3) Gale - Literally only useful magic caster available for party member, sarcastic vibe.
4) Lae'zel - Decent Fighter but she is hard to satisfy when in your party unless you are evil.
5) Wyll - decent personality-wise but literally the weakest party member in the game.
6) Halsin - Takes forever to have him join your party even though he joins the camp earlier. Didn't make the most sense. He is also very weak, which makes little sense why his strength is so low but they gave him a big muscular build.
7) Astarion - Literally the most annoying party member in the game. He has that annoying voice and tone plus he is by far the most difficult to satisfy unless you are playing as an evil character. His only redeeming quality is that he is the only rogue type party member which is extremely helpful to have when dealing with traps as well as ranged combat. plus if you keep him alive he can get you a potion in act 2 that increases your strength by 2 permanently. It is crazy that he whines the entire time though during that part because it is literally the only reason why i am not gonna kill him off early on my next play through

[Lard]

Gale.

Always Gale.

He is self serving, he thinks he knows what is best for other people and is very passive aggressive and entitled.

At least with Astarion, you know he's bullploppin' most of the time and doesn't have any airs about his desires. The rest of the team I find very open and honest, even if it takes a while.

Gale is just an entitled brat and I love making him sad.

Gale. I love him in the start, but his power hungry personality is icky. I know if it came down to it he would've sacrificed me to get more power if he could.

You know what, you're probably right. Thank you for giving me another reason to loathe that bearded baby.

[Snefru]

Karlach. Her voice, face and hair remind me of this ♥♥♥♥♥ who did a pitch to us for a timeshare. I immediately had to kill Karlach because I can’t deal with that every time I see or hear her.

[Cyrus]

I dislike all of them, not just because I played durge. I was tempted to kill them more then my durge char himself. The main reason has to do with my main critique in my YouTube video..... listen closely.... closer....

WES SEEN THEIR STORY IN DOS 2. Outside of Karlach and smaller degree on helsin the characters story are slight reworks of dos2. Main story does not change

Astarion = Fane, with the start of Sab
Gale= Red Prince
Lazael= Beast
Shadowheart = Lohse
Wyll= Ifan
Karlach= Sabe

Only small differences is that astarion is a vampire, gale screwed a goddess over a demon, lazael is a girl kissing up to a queen while beast is a guy, Shadowheart mommy issues with memory loss and compulsions (goddess vs devil). Ifan and wyll are identical char, replace wolf for a imp. They rally should have done some better writing

[Terminus]

Never even found Gale so I guess I will go with him

[Beast of War]

Jaheira : ♥♥♥♥♥♥ old crone, only slightly funny when addressing Minsc.

Minthara : awful unfemale voice, boring character due to missing content

Halsin : boring character due to missing content

Minthara and Halsin have no dedicated story line with an end boss fight.

Minthara ( Revenge Paladin ) and Halsin ( Bear Druid ) proved useful in their ( original ) roles. For Jaheira i never found a fitting role.....i don't need a spellcaster Druid, don't want a small posture feral Druid so i made her an archery specialized Ranger. She did ok-ish damage with that but who needs archers when you have spell casters, and melee classes that can shoot crossbows when still out of range ? Maybe if a party could have 5 or 6 members...but not with 4.

[Legion]

The only one I fully hate is Lae'zel. She's far, *far* too narrow-minded and completely marred with tunnel vision for either Vlaakith or Orpheus. She's a character whose depth you only get to fully explore if you romance her, as opposed to the other characters who show actual change over time regarding your choices. I get why, because of how they're raised, but if you choose not to romance her and follow her romance quests then you're locked out of depth.

My favorite is probably Shadowheart. She doesn't take Lae'zel's ♥♥♥♥ even if she starts it herself, and turning her from Shar back to Selune is rewarding in both gameplay and character arc.

Everyone else is rather boring, save *maybe* for Karlach.

[LeftPaw]

At the present time it would be Gale. Gale was my most respected companion until his slimy sexual nature was revealed. Larian took a likeable character and turned him into a sexual deviant.

[Ember]

Halsin annoys the ♥♥♥♥ out of me. Way above and beyond any real reason for it, I just don't like him.

Lae'zel isn't worth the effort it takes to "save" her.

Everybody else is fine. Messed up, but fine.

[Oddball]

I like Jaheira's accent.
I like how blunt and forward Lae'zel is.
ShadowHeart is an oxymoron. Compete sorority girl in a goth bad girl wrapper which doesn't work.

I hated Astarion, glad the hunter took him.

Gale in Act 1 was a complete chump. Act 2 he got more palatable. Wished I blew him up though but forgot to load him by the end and wasn't going to redo it. Gale is a lot more fun respected as a Sorcerer lol. Told him to take a hike when he tries to hit on me.
