You are right.Cons:
You have to deal with boohoo companions and their boohoo stories.
That doesn't really say much. You could say the same thing about Planescape: Torment.
I felt like i was their coach on a cheesy football film.
Whats wrong Eiger?
-Nothing, coach.
Nothing my ass! You are part of this team and everything you bring with you to the field is my bussiness! Keep your head together, the regionals are on the horizon.
I would have prefred a more professional vibe between the companions.
I found her quite useful. She has a rifle and a katana, points in biomedic, grenades, spellcasting (meaning more free healing and aim, and if you are playing the DC you can also give her fireballs and manabolts) making her quite versatile. Add wired reflexes to the misture and you have a character that performs like a glory (if she could hit) and eiger combined.What makes Lucky Strike a pro? Besides her character portrait, I know you can talk to her and it is implied that she will continue speaking to you but, after every mission i went to see her and she wouldn't speak to me. Also do hired companions in Dragonfall DC react to your actions during missions? I never actually tried this thinking they were only there to give you more options stat wise to your squad.
Well there are a couple of cool fights in DMS. The renraku lab is nice, the cemetery is awesome and the game gets challeging with the final battles.Even on higher difficulties they wouldn't use different abilities thus making ecounters a bit more challenching/interesting and the only changes i experienced was that they will allways hit you and will gang up on one of your party members. So is combat in DMS atleast a little different than Dragonfall DC? It would be a plus if there atleast some variation in encounters.
Expect even less with DMS.Also when you say "low use of skills and etiquettes" in DMS, i found that in Dragonfall most skill/etiquette checks were mostly there for flavour, and besides something like the security etiquette which allows you to avoid a bunch of combat in the Bloodlines mission, those checks didn't really changed the outcome of a lot missions.
