Favorite companion from any game?

[Johnsmith776]

might be too basic but ellie from the last of us or dogmeat in fallout 4 easy.

Panam and Judy from CDPR.
Liara and Morrigan from BIoware games.

Any? Another game? Hmmmmrm.

Not a companion, but a servant imp, Caspenar, from Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal. Imagine having a pet who is virtually immortal and indestructible.

Assuming we mean companions we can take with us for most of the game (which would exclude Yenn, Triss, Panam, Judy, etc.) -

The Red Prince - Divinity: Original Sin 2
Maia Rua - Pillars of Eternity: Deadfire
Liara T'Soni - Mass Effect
Jack - Mass Effect 2
Atreus - God of War (2018)
Freya - God of War: Ragnarok
Dogmeat - Fallout (All Installments)

Made me think of Far Cry Primal and all the animals you could tame. And those are actually very helpful!
Gotta play that one sometime again. It was somehow super immersive.
So yeah, these guys:
