Party can only have TWO members???

Only the player character and one henchman? Is dat all?

[Rythli]

Depends on the campaign. The original, and TSoU campaign only allows you to employ the services of one. I believe the others (HotU and Kingmaker) allow two plus yourself. This doesn't count Animal Companions/Familiars and Summon Creature I-IX.

I also noticed that when doing co-op with another player. Each player can employ one (so when doing two players then you can have two henchmen in the OC).

The good news is that the single player campaigns aren't that difficult to really warrant the need for more than one henchman. I'm sorry about being the harbinger of unfortunate information though - good luck, and take care!

In the OC? Yeah. The game was designed around playing with a single character.

The HOTU expansion raises the number of henchmen allowed to two. And there are some modules that allow more than that.

For example, my modules on Steam Workshop allow up to five companions.

Yeah, the game is really designed for the Multiplayer.

Even me back in 1st grade with no experience could design maps using it, it's a lot easier than in NWN2.
