I use this party limit removal mod, so I usually bring anywhere from 4 to 8 companions. When limiting myself to 3, though, I bring Karlach, Wyll and Shadowheart.
When I want to do things that are in a moral grey area if not downright evil, I swap out Karlach and Wyll for Astarion and Lae'zel 😁
I play on ps5 so no mods :(
Damn, I'm sorry! I know from playing Fallout New Vegas and Skyrim on both ps4 and pc how much the lack of mods can suck..
Yup. And BG3 is more of a kb+mouse game. But hey, at least I can play on my tv 😂
I'm actually playing with an xbox controller and my TV as my computer monitor. It's the best of both worlds as far as I'm concerned 😁
I'm doing the same. With that setup, kb&m isn't practical. There are still some bugs with controllers though, so being able to switch to the mouse real quick is occasionally useful.
Personally the only problem I've had playing with a controller is that neither of the two vanilla interfaces can accommodate a party size of more than 7 including the Tav well and the mod to fix that isn't compatible with the controller one. That's pretty minor though, since it's purely cosmetic and off to the side 🤷
It took me way too long to do the brain puzzle under Moonrise Tower on the controller 🤣
