So now that I’m coming down from “PLAYER HOUSING AAAAAA” I’m going back over the direct and I couldn’t help but notice that we appear to be keeping Brann.
Delves are my endgame, I’m very invested and I am interested, but I’m also an altoholic so if we’re keeping Brann, if the “seasonal companion” idea is being scrapped… I sure hope “seasonal companion levels” aren’t going to reset.
Like, do the new curios. Do that. Sure. We can grind to level those up, but like… if we’re keeping Brann… are my alts waiting for heirlooms to go a step past 70 walking into a fresh Brann?
It’ll be interesting to watch.

I hope they put some more work into his programming. Brann is like a monkey on crack sometimes.
Oh that’s one of his powers! That’s an actual monkey! Confusing, I know!
If we are keeping Brann can Blizz please teach him about the concept of personal space?
You can’t click on anything in delves because Brann is constantly trying to shove his nose up my rear end. Can we get him to stand off to the side even just a couple feet like hunter/warlock pets do?

Biggest disappointment of that stream, after learning the SC crossover was for Hearthstone. I was hoping for Sir Finley Mrrgglton.

Brann being near you wouldn’t be a problem if they would ever get around to shrinking his hitbox. It’s annoying how they still haven’t adjusted it after all these complaints.

Kinda funny how before they said we’d get a new buddy each season only for them to change their minds and make us keep Brann. Probably going to up his max level another ten or so levels too, Zekvir’s replacement may be some void goblin contraption like how Zekvir was a void infused spider monster
It’s confusing because the monkey isn’t nearly as energetic as Brann. I’ve watched that monkey just hop up and down a few times before despawning. Meanwhile Brann is halfway to Australia after aggroing a mob.
Now that I’ve dwelt on it for a bit, I can only express my disappointment that he is sticking around. No offense to the guy. He’s alright. But he’s never been a favourite character of mine. And with the potential that the delves presented to have a different companion every season, we had already started kicking around ideas for potential new friends. I’ve really loved delves but the same old Brann is just going to make them feel very stale next season.
i thought we would get a different companion with a new season… wtf happened witht hat
not keeping Brann, they said season companions and I fully expect them give us another annoying companion to level from 1 again.
nah they confirmed brann again for season 2 with revamps
Seems that they are only adding one or two delves. You really want to level a new companion all the way to 60 repeating the same 2 delves over and over?
Keeping Brann allows the 2 new delves to just become part of the regular rotation instead of adding a system to let a new companion join you in already existing delves.
Why would I only play the new ones?
I’m assuming a new companion would go with the new delves. I suppose they could add in a way to switch between companions but I guess Blizz decided it was easier to just keep Brann.
To me the idea of leveling a companion just goes hand in hand with a new seasonal journey. I fear that may still be the case except with having us level Brann again.
Omg yes, he’s like right up on me in a delve.
Ran into complications I guess, it’s weird considering he was a S1 companion but I guess we’ll see what happens in S3.
Maybe after that survey they had they’re probably still playing with the knobs to make him more tolerable as an AI before attempting a new companion.
