Games like Baldur's gate 1 & 2, Sacrifice and lichdom battlemages necromancy system all allow you to be a minion master.
Watching as my minions tear apart the enemy, while laughing maniacally is my favorite style of play.

So will this game make that doable and if so, will it be a full on hoard of minions or more like the later games (NWN 1&2) where you just get a single minion?

Hi there, Daniel from the dev team here:)
We plan to introduce some "minion mechanics" in the following weeks. They will use placeholders in the first place (existing mesh) but will be playable. You will have the ability to raise a large amount of small minion, or bigger entitiies.
More info soon ! :)
Also, each player will be able to have one or several pets. the pets will have various behavior, such as "Treasure hunter", "Support", or "Hostile".

Cool. Thanks for the info. :-)

I've thought of another question:
Will my character skills or perks also contribute to minions?

A couple examples are the way the custom built heros work in Champions Online with perks that power up or toughen minions.... or The way skills all interrelate to become stronger in Diablo 2 after the 1.10 patch.
