Simple QoL: Companion's defening stare, and stealthed-walking.

[prophetcrowe]

No one likes essays unless it's needed.

 

Companions are always staring at the PC, it's unnerving. More so, they seemingly lack life. Have then look around, and preform simple actions no real depth beyond that. This is something that has been bothering me for Years.

 

I like, as many, to RP from time to time. Walking to my objectives and such,....stealth walking (creeping) up to a target I intend on killing. There currently no animation for stealth walking, easily rectified: Slow down the stealth run animation.

 

Thanks!~

Somewhere along the way, they changed it, and it was infinitely worse before.

 

My favourite Commandogirl started her career in mid-2013. Aric Jorgan ran around behind her from the end of Ord Mantell to the end of Taris, at which point I switched to Elara Dorne.

 

There were two reasons for that. There was the inevitable gameplay reason: Elara's a healer. (She's also monstrously tough and quite deadly.)

 

And there was the other reason. For the whole of two planets, Aric Jorgan ran along behind my character, staring at her backside the whole time. :eek:

 

(Somewhere, they fixed the companions so they stare at something higher up.)

I feel that would certainly fit for some characters. Looking at you Doc,. ya creepo
