What would the ultimate random "big update" for this game?
I'm talking things we'll never expect to see and probably won't happen - especially not without an announcement. Just some wishful thinking.
For me, it'd be the ability to have your companions romance eachother. I know it's very likely that we'll never see this, but it'd be so amazing to switch to Shadowheart, and have her romance Lae'zel, and have my Tav and his boyfriend Astarion shed a tear for their enemies to lovers fanfic.
Edit - this post is doing better than I expected! I knew it'd be a fun topic but I didn't expect this much enthusiasm. So for the sake of keeping it relevant a little longer, I'm gonna talk about some of the top comments' ideas.
Give Tav a tent. I don't know how this isn't in the game already. It could be the most generic bullshit in the world and I'd be happy. Best case scenario is that it looks a little different based on your base class.
More Warlock Patron interactions. I'd be lying if I said I didn't agree on this one. But I understand why they didn't, because it'd convolute the plot even further and add too many loose ends to the end of the game.
More "chilling" cutscenes at the camp. Honestly kinda wild we didn't see this! It would've been nice to have the chance to see a long rest animation based around the fondness of your companions; where the night ends with 2 or more of you talking and laughing around the fire.
Volo's Guide to everything side quest. I admit that having a dedicated bestiary in the game through Volo is a brilliant idea; but I don't know how well it could be implemented. Maybe Volo gives you a little magic item that automatically records information about enemies you've encountered? And then whenever you speak to Volo, he could be like "Oh! There's 10 new entries. Well done! Have a cookie!"
