Maybe not the typical companion we get in RPG's, Maybe something to benefit your play style. Example ,if your a tactical ,kill from afar type of player, you can purchase a falcon with bionic augmentation's (to handle) and a few times a day you can call on this falcon to fly over an enemy encampment (and you can see threw its eyes) to scope out weak points in defense or better places to attack from. I sure don't want to see companion's that follow you till you tell them your tired of their shit . Hell most of the time companions like that have a advanced skill of getting glitched in caves and shit when you are not paying attention , I guess one can look at the bright side to that though and say it makes for a good game of hide and seek...lol
