However, I don't know many details about Radiant Story, so i don't know what these companions, that are selected through your actions (as far as i understand), are gonna be like. I have the feeling that they are gonna be pretty boring, but they'll have all the types (mage, assassin, Barbarian, Paladin, Necromancer etc.). though without enough background I feel like it'll just be townspeople, that you easily manipulated to like you, who blindly follows you out into the [censored]. When he dies, you just harvest his valuable belongings and move on to the next brainless sap.
Hopefully I'm wrong and they're great, or if not then Bethesda should take the time to add a couple more companions with long story's and sidequests.
