I personally won't mind at all if they cut Tiberius out of all the animation and don't bother doing that first chunk in the underdark to avoid any repeat of people bringing up Orion over and over and over again.
I honestly never understood people who were frustrated or angry over Orion leaving or the way he left. Tiberius and Orion both were fucking grating on the nerves almost the entire time. He was the worst example in that group of meta gaming, being a sore ass player, assuming things and trying to shove his own decisions into Matt's story line in a purely inorganic and silly way.
His character being dead is the best way they could have recovered from all that drama. Let the characters have a minute to mourn, build him a solid resting place, tell some stories of Tibs and then moooooove the fuck on. They can just say "He was a friend of ours..." when they find the body and make the grave site. No need to go into it.
And i would like Pike to mix it up with this group for sure but the idea of Ashley having to remember all of Pikes stuff and use it effectively in this group is.... worrying. At the least LoL
At least with Grog it would be super straightforward, Talesin is in a similar boat and dude has played a lot more DnD so i'm sure he would be fine. I feel like Sam could probs step into Scanlan pretty easy but like... Why would the meatman ever care to help these doofuses lol
