I got into gaming around the time World of Warcraft was big, and my first character was a Night Elf hunter (because why not?). Getting that first cat pet was the highlight. I stuck with playing as a hunter or a warlock for years, which is probably why I still love characters with companions.

What games do you think have the best buddies?

Right now, my girlfriend is deep into Skyrim (which is why I have time to babble on). She's torn between Cicero and Aela (for me, it's always been Serana).

I also had a blast making my own robot buddy in Fallout 4.

Among newer games, Elden Ring has cool companions, but I wish they stuck around more often. Oh well.

What about you? Any games with awesome sidekicks? Smart, good in a fight, useful, or just fun to have around...
