Is Sir Lora's story worth it?

[Tailisup]

I ask cuz so far he's been nothing but a damned burden to me.... Very difficult to do any kind of attacks when the little bugger teleports to where I'm attacking.

[Stabbey]

Hopefully Larian will fix it so he's not suicidal.

He's also apparently bugged to only talk to the main character, whether they have Pet Pal or not, which at the moment forces the main character to be a ranger or wizard, because they can afford to take Pet Pal as their first Talent. Warriors are forced to take Opportunist, Rogues should probably take The Pawn first.

I got rid of mine. He is very distracting during the dialogs because he keeps shifting around like he's ADHD, animating faster than anything else in the background. I can't even talk to him plus I have a cat following me around too. They should have put him in a later chapter I think, having two different animals following you at once within your first five minutes on the island is kinda distracting especially for your first impression of the game.

I think I'm going to get rid of mine as well, especaily as I'm playing a mage, (fire) he going to be dead in no time) and yes, if you already got the cat, a second isn't helping. I hoped he might have been better added, or another character type.

[Neiker]

If he dies he still follows you around in spirit form.

[Iry]

Right now, it’s easier to let him die and be a spirit.

dunno for me cat and sir lora run away when fight begins

On paper it sounded like a bad idea and in game it is even worse. The black cat was already obnoxious but it was cute as it was a small gimmick and almost more an easter egg more than anything.

But having two animals following you around ? On top of that Lora is super sticky to the player he follows and hyperactive.

He's one of the reasons I'm waiting for patches to actually play the game again. Having to force Pet Pal on a party member is already really annoying but having to do it on a specific character ? This is too much.
