Hello, I'm a new player and I'm only a few hours into the game. So, please no spoilers. (Yes, I know it's an oldie and a classic but I've somehow managed to avoid spoilers, and I'd like to keep it that way.) However, I do really want to know, and would appreciate if one of you could tell me (without spoiling anything else!!) if/when Syd rejoins the party after the first album. I'm asking because I found him by far the most fun character to play and kind of invested most of the XP so far (I'm about halfway through the second album) into him. Literally the only instrument I've upgraded so far is the mirrored telecaster but he's just left the party and taken all his equipment with him... am I shit out of luck? David's got pretty good stats from the outset so I'm not suddenly struggling to progress but it did just get a lot harder.

I struggle to believe that they'd design such a fun character just to take him away from you when you're barely fresh from the tutorial, so I assume he's coming back, but is that going to be any time soon? If not, should I reset, speed back through the tutorial, and invest in the other party members? (Rick was able to clutch for me a few times when Syd was out of commission, and plot-wise I'm assuming he's going to be the leader moving forwards, so he'd probably be the one I'd focus on instead.)

Thanks in advance for the help :)

Millions must know the PING

Give me your pitches for more agonizing Pink Floyd desecrations on the silver screen.

Just went to the graveyard in Auburn to see the letter Aledar wrote to Tasim. Since the player character was the one planned to be sacrificed at the end of the expedition, and Tasim was Aledar's first choice to come along as the fourth member of the expedition... was Aledar planning on sacrificing Tasim? Is that the intended implication here?
