I’ve been playing woodlands recently and one of the things I enjoy is having my NPC squad following me around.

Let’s say in BGE2 we build up our crew on our ship, we could then be given the option to recruit 3 at a time to accompany us on a mission or even in free roam. Enabling similar squad commands as are seen in wildlands.

This could then mean if we meet up with other captains online a mission could be undertaken by 2 online players and 6 NPC crew members.

What does everyone else think?

Someone please respond.

It is an interesting idea, you could choose the crew members with the best abilities for each different type of mission
The problem is that it will be difficult create a good way to implement this mechanic, especially online. A little example that comes to mind is that if you and your friends take a tuk-tuk and go to another part of the city, how can the npcs follow you?
