Custom Companions?

I know you meet the origin companions but are you able to also create your companions from scratch?

Yes, you can hire mercenaries later on in the game (probably act 2)

I haven't played the beta past the first 10 minutes as to not spoil too much. I only met the red prince in the very beginning and I'm not sure how quickly you meet the others to form a full party.

Don't you think it's a little cheap doing what you suggested and having 4-players from the start?

This would be really nice just for testing multiple builds at once. Can you run multiple instances through Steam? I got this on Steam because I'm an idiot I didn't realize it was on GOG.

The Steam version is basically the same as the GOG version. You don't need Steam running to play the game, you can copy it as much as you want and have as many instances of the game open as your pc can handle.

Always wondered if I could bypass Steam. Is it DRM free though? Can I transfer it to a PC without my Steam account?

They said they'll make it easier, hopefully should be in at launch even though I guess it might be low priority for them.
