I’d prefer something like an english mastiff. I don’t know if they existed in bohemia though.
I really hope the developer will take some time to implement the dog companion properly.
I’d like to go hunting with the dog f.e. and use him as a guard to to guard the perimeter if you sleep in the outskirts(dunno if thats possible)/ or guard my tankard full of fresh ale. And I’d like to be able to give commands to the dog like stay back, attack and so on depending on the situation. I dont want the dog to attack every threat we encounter.
He should be able to scent threats and warn the player. But he should also behave. (maybe we could train him somehow) Maybe some gimmicks where the dogs snaps at the hand of a fair maiden or ruins her dress because he was swimming in the lake and shook himself dry while he was standing next to the wench. And you’d have to talk you way out of the situation or do what a gleeman does and turn tail and run in case an angry husband/father appears. So many possibilities. If you have to eat for yourself to survive you should have to feed the dog as well. OMG so much to do =)
@MigzPT I like doge as well but i dont want to see him ingame. Thats sth for the modder scene.
