How are all these guys so different from my game? It lets me make two characters and not even pick origin characters. I have not gotten past this because not a single guide speaks of it.

When we recruit companions for the first time, they ask what style of companion we need (finesse, magical, strength ..)
How we know what are results of these choices combination (inquisitor, druid, ...) ?

You're missing the polymorph skill that provides the attribute point.
- Anonymous
Looks like they removed racial attribute bonuses. Instead all classes but two give you 3 attribute points and shadowblade and metamorph give 4. Unless I'm missing something major here is there any reason not to pick either one of those two then just customize the build to the class you want to play?

The link to Metamorph (class) is broken. It takes you to Metamorph (special skill), not Metamorph (class) as it should.
