Master-Nala Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 See subject. I'm totally cool if our companions just aren't returning as part of the story, but the issue is that we don't know and the dang terminal tempts us by suggesting that we may miss out if we grab them now. But my main, a Sage, only has 1 of her original 5 back. If you don't want to go on record saying it won't ever happen, could you at least ensure we don't miss out by reclaiming them?

Zhedzaban Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Damn fine question! I too have avoided reclaiming my missing companions for fear of ruining stories further on. My sorc is really missing Ashara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurj Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I feel the same way. I miss my original companions, but I haven't summoned them because I'm hoping BW will bring them back. An answer one way or the other would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReverendAnderson Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 How would you miss out if you reclaim them? I never lost mine at all (apparently due to a bug) and it hasn't effected my story, so far as I can tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlienEyeTX Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Are people really not able to seperate terminal retrieval for non-story stuff from the real story content? Just take them and have fun. Enjoy the story if/when they return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zunayson Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 As soon as I finished a particular chapter, one of my reclaimed companions went away. Because he was gained on the very next chapter in the series. You don't miss out on anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MollyDresden Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I thought people said elsewhere that getting them back from the terminal has no effect on future story content. I assume it's like when we get Niko/Shae/Ranos, where we can use the item to get them immediately, but they also (are supposed to) show up as an Alliance Alert at the right time, and using the item is not supposed to prevent us from doing the alert when we reach that part of the story. I haven't tested this myself, I don't think, but that's what my understanding was. In other words, you should be able to retrieve them without it affecting anything that may happen later. I thought the warning was just to let you know that doing so would be immersion-breaking in that you'd have them back even though as far as the ongoing storyline is concerned, you don't.
