4 is such an arbitrary low number, like I know it’s multiplayer but cmon, theres absolutely no room for npcs in a human party. Also what’s the point of locking the appearance of the hirelings if they don’t get a backstory? Pillars of eternity 2 let you create custom party members and they had custom made companions that werent like full party members but some of them actually talked.

I know mods can fix this but I would really like to just be able to create 4 custom characters at the start even if im not playing multiplayer. Also maybe let us change the race and appearances of the hirelings if they gonna be blank slates.

I wish I could access the inventory of characters not in my party at the camp. One of the larger reasons I've been mostly running the same party the whole time is I don't want to deal with shuffling gear around and talking to people to get them to leave and join the party.

I like the QoL features from the Owlcat Pathfinder games' inventory system. Even having the ability to access all your companions character sheets and individual inventories at your home base makes a huge difference.
