Campfire Conversations
The campfire conversations serve a similar purpose as the Skits, but they’re completely new. Players are able to get closer to their party members with one-on-one chats that make the characters feel more real.
These conversations can be funny, sad, bizarre, or all of the above. There’s a sort of invisible social meter between party members, and the ones who you choose to hang out with will noticeably warm up to you outside of those campfire sections. As an added bonus, reaching the max friendship level through these campfire moments even unlocks new moves to use in combat.
As you can probably tell, I’m a sucker for moments that provide more interaction between party members. Making these characters feel relatable, like actual people, is always a positive.
