A Dimple in Draco
I felt the same on act 1 with the companions, but you get more “good” companions late in act 2 and early act 3. By the end I was really happy with the party. Also some of the act 1 companions can have a change of heart, or be respecced into other classes depending how you want to play them
This is very true. Having seen the whole game now (at least a version of its events unfolding) I think I can say that origin characters are not really good or bad in a traditional sense but can become different versions of their original self along the way. It's obviously intentional so that they can be played as main characters themselves.
