His initial impressions so far:

"gale is sus as fuck

I like the two ladies, but they sadly have friction between them

the white vampire lad is just annoying and sitting in the camp

I like the black swordsman dude, but I'm curious what gale is up to, so swordsy is sitting in camp as well"

He's been playing a half orc barbarian so he has been doing all the classic barbarian things (broke Shart out of her box with strength, intimidated his way through many situations, etc.)

So far, he went straight to the goblin camp after doing a bit of the Grove content and got demolished by Dror Ragzlin.

He hasn't found Withers yet. I haven't spoiled anything to him but have strongly insisted he try to find "the talking mummified man". I have also recommended following up on Wyll's "hunt" and promised him he will find "something nice" at the end of it. I will return with more updates once he progresses more.

Astarion is my second favorite companion. Karlach is too cool to not be my first favorite, but Astarion with his scheming and sassy attitude is such fun! Astarion was also my most powerful companion, and group face in my first playthrough, so I very much needed him in the party. This time I'm playing as a Bard and don't need him, but I just added him back to the party to take on Cazador, and he's still a badass. I'm rolling with him as a Monk/Thief now and he kicks major ass, and doubles as a pack mule.
