Dismiss main character?

[Maun Rah]

Hey guys is it possible to dismiss one of teh main characters? because i would really like to play with as many of the companions as possible.

It's not possible to dismiss the 2 main character. You can only dismiss companion or henchmen.

After playing the second part first that's really a major bummer :(
I just can't stand the bland main character and wanted the thoughtout companions.

The companions are equally on par to the main characters in terms of blandness. So even if you could do what you are wanting to, you wouldn't be gaining anything worthwhile. You'd still have the same exact problem; that problem would simply be transferred to a different character.

Besides that, you can complete Jahan's and Wolfgraff's quests and hear their whole backstories without ever taking them outside of the Homestead. That's what I did and it was great, because I didn't like them anyway. This is actually a vast improvement over DOS 2, which always arbitrarily murders all the companions you don't take, for no good reason, and thus prevents you from completing their quests and hearing their backstories.

If you want to, you can try playing with one of the six man party mods which allow having up to 4 companions.
