Can we have another companion as cool as Sharp-As-Night?

Red_Feather · April 20

But maybe make them Daedric? I love Sharp's dialogue. He reminds me of Spike from Buffy sometimes. A Daedric being or Vampire that talks similar to Sharp would be awesome.

SilverBride · April 20

I've loved Sharp ever since he told me "If you don't get up, I'm taking your stuff!" after I died to a dragon. I'd love to have more Companions like him!

Red_Feather · April 20

@SilverBride He is the best!

Oh wow! Surely this is a violation of the forum rules, what a horrible thing to say...

redlink1979 · April 21

Sharp is cool as ice. My favorite so far.

Chufu · April 21

A Sharp one as an Orc companion would actually be my dream.

Telvas · April 21

And on top of that Sharp has quite interesting story (personally I do not like it much, but to be fair, it is quite well written).

That is one of my favourite lines from him too.

I even made him a special little fishing spot in my main house. Most of my furnishings are found or made by myself, but for Sharp I actually went to buy him a fishing pole rack from the guild store because he is my favourite and gets special treatment like that.

Sharp is the best companion they gave us so far. Love his lines and personality. And on top of that none of his approval / disapproval interferes with my playstyle. Hope to get more companions like him in the future.

Erickson9610 · April 21

Sharp-as-Night is cool, but I don't think we should get a carbon copy of him because that'd be redundant.

The same goes for the other 7 Companions — their exact personalities probably shouldn't be repeated. Future Companions should definitely have similar personalities with some alterations, though.

You'll know him when he talks. His Voice Actor did Garrus from Mass Effect.

Why not something else? It's not like only 6 personality types exist.

LootAllTheStuff · April 21

I mentioned this in a different thread, but it would be cool to get a Snow Elf companion, rescued from some Dwemer ruin.

Yes, something else would work great. I just don't want Companions to be too similar to one another.

My wish has always been that when we fish out in the world, and have Sharp out, that he would have a fishing animation us with us.

Love Sharp. But Zerith-var and Isobel are great too.

This. Wish he could also have some fishing animation in houses if wanted. Let the guy relax.

I think Zerith-Var needs some of his lines nerfed.He comments about following so he doesn't get lost, surpirised that people aren't staring, and reading about it in a book every day. If he can't find his way out of Skingrad yet, he needs to see a healer.

But having him comment on dolmens and delves is great. I'd say he's 75% perfect while Sharp is 95% perfect.

ADarklore · April 21

Honestly, Sharp was my favorite... and had no desire to try the newest companions. But, when I returned to ESO, I decided to give them a try. All I can say is, I REALLY love Zerith now... and his storyline is awesome too. Tanlorin, I wasn't sure about them, but then they said, 'Hehe... heavy sack' and I was like, "Yep, their cool!"

Also the fact that Zerith applies major breach, meaning now I don't have to carry a skill with it, is another bonus in my book.

Hapexamendios · April 22

If I use any companion, it's usually Sharp or Zerith. I find the rest to be annoying to a degree.

Cooperharley · April 22

I'd love for them to add to their capabilities and expand the system rather than continually add companions

They can still do both!

ArchangelIsraphel · April 22

I think your idea would be a lot of fun. I'm all for daedric companions.

I'd also like to see another witty companion, but I'd like something with a different personality than Sharps, even though I'm a big fan of him. I'll personally never stop advocating for a Altmer scholar with a wry sense of humor (preferably male, handsome, with a willowy build, that smirks at the player with amusement over the top of whatever book he's reading? >.>; )

I'd love it if he could drag us into an adventure while delving into some arcane, uncommon Altmer lore, or something like that. Maybe tie him into antiquities and give him some kind of "restoration" perk that enhances our ability to find uncommon leads due to his assistance as a researcher?

I'd also like a clockwork city companion that uses prosthetics and has unique powers related to them. So on that front, I'd also like a male dunmer with a bit of snark and an outlook/life philosophy relating to the lore surrounding Sotha Sil and other happenings in the clockwork city.

Perfect. As usual.

Haven't been able to do both yet. All they've done is add more companions. They haven't expanded the system's capabilities whatsoever since its launch.

If I had to choose between the 2, I'd prefer the system to be heavily expanded, more interactive and given more depth.

Could we get a companion serving a race that hasn't seen any presence yet? Orcs? Bosmer? Wood orcs even?

Tommy_The_Gun · April 22

"You weren't keeping score, were you? ... Me neither."
"Skill issue."
"Wasn't gonna end any other way."
"Better luck next time. Oh wait."
"Who's better than us? Nobody."
"And down they go."
"Who's next?"

Just read those quotes. It might as well be this dude ↓ . In fact, I have sharp setted up as a Sniper / marksman....

BretonMage · April 22

I love Brandon Keener's voice. I hope they continue to hire good VAs for our future companions.
