And yeah if you romanced Ashara and decide to take her back you do get a sweet kissing scene which is nice, but I was hoping for a bit more dialogue and an actual mission. I guess I shouldn't whine too much though since it seems like most romanced characters got the shaft. I doubt they'll treat Kira's or Jaesa's return any different, and Akaavi is definitely getting shafted. My expectations have been extremely tempered by this experience
I agree, an actual mission together would be nice rather than just suddenly being thrown into a room with the person. I did like the original companion quests where you had to travel and do a small quest line. I doubt they'll handle future returns any differently than they have been. Personally, I think Akaavi would've fit in with the Mandalorians, she could've been returned with Torian, though I hate dual returns, I think each one should get their own little return. I think however at that time, they were likely still thinking about doing chapters for the major ones.

I haven't had high expectations about much of anything in a very long time, easier to avoid disappointment. If I don't get excited, maybe just maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

I haven't forgiven Arcann anything. I never thought he should've been romanceable. I HATE Arcann with the flaming passion of a thousand suns, so kindly don't assume anything about someone you clearly don't know.

I killed Arcann on 3 of 4 of the toons I've played through KOTFE/ET. And I'll kill him again in any future ones, I've no interest in romancing space hitler. I watched the romance on youtube just to see. I won't even play it out on an alt, because I don't want to add to their metrics.

Ashara and Arcann both should be worm food, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm rather curious who you hate the most now Luna. I know you hated Thana from classic, but never knew you hated Ashara too.

How...a character/companion is portrayed (Written) can totally change how they're viewed. For myself I always thought of Ashara as the confused kid that didn't even know what she wanted (Certainly Not Killable). However....because of this latest scene I really would just tell her to "Move On". Insubordination in "Our World" leads to rough changes and at times Life Changing events, in the Sith structure, its a fight and the resulting death is accepted (unless the power base objects the result). This Reunion portrays the players character as very weak, nobody wants that.

Hmm, from the companions I always hated Ashara and Skadge the most. Skadge actually grew on me a little bit (like a fungus lol) because at least as gruff as he was, he had a sense of acceptence of the BH and the crew, and I guess 'runt' started to sound like an endearment.

I despised Thana Vesh too, as you know, she wasn't a comp, and I didn't want to see her as one. I think I hate them both equally, Thana for being stupid and pompous and Ashara for being indecisive to the point where she was 'nothing.' She was no Jedi, couldn't commit to being Sith, my SI saw her as wishy-washy and a waste of time. Both of them were annoying to my characters and to me as their player.

So, I guess it's a three-way tie between Ashara, Thana, and Arcann. Not my cup of tea at all, for differing reasons.

With Thana it was also her voice, it was grating. Hard to believe it's the same VA who does Kira.

Ha! I know I'm supposed to hate Skadge too but he is just so blatantly obnoxious he makes me laugh. I actually get a kick out of seeing other people running around with him, and seeing the outfits people choose for him.

Thana used to tick me off too. But after running through those missions so many times I started getting the sense that she had very, very low self esteem, like she talked big but she was trying to hide how intimidated she was by the PC. Especially when you do the bonus missions and really punk her *** at every turn. I pretty much play everything dark side these days but the last time I dealt with Thana I let her go at the last second because I pitied her, lol.

Still wouldn't want her as a companion though

I missed the word "tie" when I first read this Juvenile, I know...
My name is Milind. I checked it again and can confirm you there is no bug with any companion in the game.

The most character I feel satisfied after I finished every stories expansion is my Alt toon Dark Sage, I killed everyone that has an option to kill them off LOL. Sadly part, I can not undo a lot of mistake choices in the stories that I made with my main character on the 1st play through.

I like sending Skadge out on crew skill missions. "If it'll SHUT YOU UP!"

I think Thana is pretty representative of a lot of Sith-in-training who get big heads about their newfound strength. Jedi go through the same thing (like Ashara). Thana was SUPPOSED to be grating on our nerves. I wonder if it might have been a good idea to give us the option of Thana or Ashara--it seems like all the domination of Ashara that so many SI keep demanding for their DS characters would have fit better with Thana.

There was no kill option for queen either. You don't even get a chance to slap it, tell it to go to hell or converse in any way. No, choose to side with the Empire and that traitorous beta scum forces its way into your companion list with no way to object or prevent it. So the fact you can't kill Ashara either is fair enough really. At least not recruiting her is an option.
