Honestly i was surprised how barebones Companions is despite being the feature of the year... They don't swim/fish with you, they don't really interact with much, they cant do emotes with you, they're okay in combat and mine only says the same 3 lines. Small things like this can make a huge difference ZOS, not just announcing something and hope it floats. I can forgive bugs since they're inevitable but actually design of the companions is a meh from me.
I thought that with the other emote mirroring, (laughing, eating, cheering, dancing) they would use an instrument when your character does, too bad they didn't add that in.
Agreed, especially considering he specifically says he likes to play the flute. It should be an option to ask, at least at max rapport. I was hoping for a rapport increase when I played my flute for him, but alas. He doesn't even make a comment recognising it.
PC NA, CP2500+. Character creation is the true endgame.
I would love to have my companion whip out a complimentary instrument. Especially if they could sync to whatever song you were playing(where applicable).
