Possible to change companions during playthrough? and Act 2 start point?

[DarkPhoton]

No spoilers please, like can I trade Ifan for Lohse then change it back multiple times through the game? Or at least be given time frames to do so until late game?

Also I see people keep talking about act 1, 2, etc, but the journal is in chapters. I reached "chapter 4" in my journal, when i just leave the boats that take us away from the fort joy place onto the island with driftwood. So is this act 4 or act 2?

Why do people refer to these as acts and not chapters like how the game seperates them lol?

You can change companions, origin characters, one last time after you leave the island, that's the last time you can pick origin characters. Since you reached driftwood, it's already too late. The other characters are dead.

Afterwards you can still pick, random, non-origin characters. But I'm honestly not sure why they even put that in, in case you screw up I guess?

Once you get on the lady vengeance your party will disband, you will have to look them up on the ship if you want them back, or other origin characters, this will be your last chance to choose wich origin characters will acompany you.

You can recruit other custom characters anytime though the sargeant lady, this is because your companions can actualy leave you if their aproval ratting goes too low, they can even die on the story depending on what you choose to do, or not do.

And as for acts, its because you'll change locations and wont be able to go back to the previous locations once you move on Act 1-fort joy Act 2- Reaper's coast Act 3-Nameless island(or something) act 4- Arx.
