That's one interpretation, but even if that were the correct one, it still doesn't make this characters LIKEABLE. When considering who is in my party, I don't particularly care for POST-MODERN FEMINIST CRITIQUE as the main character points. People keep posting this interpretation like it's a devastating gotcha to the people who complain about these characters. But it is you who is missing the point entirely. I don't give a shit whether Amiri actually is a STRONG POWAFUL WOMYNZ character, or actually a clever critique on such a character. I am not interested in her either way. If I was given the choice (and a real choice, not Hobson's choice), I would hand her over to Nok-Nok to be sacrificed to Lamashtu at the earliest opportunity.
Yeah, I was only addressing the SJW critique of the companions. If the characters are likeable or not is more of a matter of personal taste.
I for one really enjoyed Linzi, Kaessi even Octavia and Tristian.
But other characters like Jaethal, Regongar or Harrim were a snooze fest most of the time to me. But they also never crossed the line of being annoying. Even with Amiri and Nok-Nok.
The fact that the game did not pretend that Amiri is some awesome character but presented her in pretty terrible light helped a lot.
If characters stay on the same level in Wrath of the Righteous meaning - not outstanding but serviceable I will be content.
