What is the Generic Companions Expansion?
The Generic Companions Expansion aims to add several new FULLY RECRUITABLE followers around the commonwealth, similar to that of the simpler, more generic faction-based followers you would find scattered around the world in games such as Skyrim or Starfield. They come fully voiced using in game dialogue, as well as doubling as fully functional unique settlers.
Sometimes I don’t want to wander around with Nick or Hancock, as much as I may enjoy them. There are times where I would rather just have a Brotherhood soldier by my side or really FEEL like the General, with Minutemen following me. These followers don’t contain a questline or affinity system, however what IS INCLUDED :
10 Fully Recruitable faction-based companions
Double as unique settlers to find and recruit to your settlements
An intro scene as well as a few smaller, unique bits of dialogue you can exchange with them
Voiced player character using in-game dialogue
Each companion is flagged to ignore factions after you recruit them, they will always be loyal to you (even the synths if you destroy the Institute, just recruit them before!)
