    What we asked:

    Q: How many NPCs do you usually take into your party in Baldur's Gate 2?
    (753 votes total)

    5 (529) 70%
    None, I solo (99) 13%
    4 (61) 8%
    3 (39) 5%
    2 (13) 2%
    1 (12) 2%

    The wide majority of poll participants (70%) usually make a full party, taking 5 NPCs into their group when playing Baldur's Gate 2.

    Surprisingly, 13% of the people who voted in the poll don't take any NPCs into their party in Baldur's Gate 2.

    The remaining options of 1-4 NPCs in the party are much less popular. 8% of those who voted in the poll take 4 NPCs, 5% take 3, and 2% take 2, and another 2% take 1 NPC into their party in Baldur's Gate 2.

    Actually, I thought there would be a greater percentage of solo'ers.

    I usually take 5, but I've done 0-4 as well (started games, but not necessarily finished).

    First few times through, I took 5 for banters and all that.

    Next couple times I tried doing solo, or 1 NPC to romance and solo.

    Last couple times (including anytime i play again in the future) will likely be one or two because I'd rather not have to babysit so many people.

    Splunge, that is exactly what some people on the bioware boards are trying to make clear. It's not because the boards are swarmed with messages and discussions of one kind of players (here soloers, there multiplayers) that that is actually the major part of the player base.
