People actively arguing for LESS party members in party-based RPGs should be hunted down and fed to carnivorous rabbits
Party members are only good if the companions themselves are good. The characters revealed so far don't look particularly appealing except for Rambo guy.
Best cRPGs are those where you create the entire party from scratch
nope. If the characters are good enough, there's no need for that.
its okay to embrace your inner jRPG fan from time to time, but real cRPGs are all about making your own party
Ah yes, now comes the time in which weeaboo calls me a weeaboo from the depths of his figurine populated basement. Journal updated.

Well, that was fitting enough. I do doubt Gunker has anything to add to said party if not for animu fantasy characters, however.

Well, not sure where this came from, but if its dicks you're looking for, not sure cRPGs are the right place for it. Maybe check out some hentai games

If you lot make the hottest and pious girl non-romanceable once again like you did with Argenta, I will cancel my pre-order.
I thought Battle Sisters are type of nuns in 40K
In-setting they're specifically super hot psuedo-french space nuns generally without vows of celibacy. And big into S&M.

For whatever reason Owlcat decided to make her (Argenta) a non-sexable character, so everyone fucked the fishwaifu instead.
Kibellah was the only real option for a RT.

Bang her until she fucks off to lead your own personal death cult. V. nice.

Yes, there were stats for a playable Gray Knight in the Daemon Hunter sourcebook, though I doubt people were using the character much...

I think that the Radical - Puritan divide offers a much more fitting framework for a 40K game than Rogue Trader’s Dogmatic /Heretic / Iconoclast trio, where the latter feels very out of place. I just hope that there will be multiple options within this simple framework, since there are many distinct sub-factions and therefore ways to portray an Inquisitor:

At least there ARE practical truth to Istvaanism - they put several Guard regiments through hell by orchestrating debacale after debacle, accident after accident - many were killed but in the end they got super-hardened veterans who in future campaigns while being bsurdly outnumbered steamrolled heretics without giving them a chance. They are simple - war breeds hardened humanity, war weeds out cowards and weak-willed,sothey best survive.

What is funny about Dogmatic-Heretic-Iconoclast trinity is that it all rests pretty much on the Puritan-Radical axis (you can see it at the top bar):
