Line 11:
* ''[[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People|Strong Bads Cool Game for Attractive People]]: 8-Bit Is Enough'' does this, being an [[Affectionate Parody]] of old videogames. ___ HAS JOINED YOUR PARTY!
 
=== [[Role -Playing Game]] ===
* ''[[Shadow Hearts]]'' series has a [[Running Gag]] that Roger Bacon ''pretends'' to join your party (complete with 'Naming screen') but never actually does it.
* ''[[Chrono Cross]]'''s messages are personalized for each character's accent/verbal tic/gimmick. "[[Valley Girl|Marcy, like, joined your party!]]" "[[No Indoor Voice|ZOAH JOINED YOUR PARTY.]]" "[[Masked Luchador|Greco tagged into your party!]]" "[[Our Fairies Are Different|Razzly joined your party-hee!]]" "[[Surfer Dude|~Doc joined your party, dude!]]" "[[Machine Monotone|Grobyc-joined-your-party.]]"
Line 23:
* When someone joins your party in ''[[Fallout 3]]'' and ''[[Fallout: New Vegas]]'', a pop-up message appears telling you so. This was absent in the first two games of the series, when potential companions would just start following you after their recruiting conditions were met.
* In ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]'', one character who will later join your party has some rather awkward lines about how if you help him and allow him to "join with you" he'll help you out.
* ''[[Wizardry]] 8'' has 2 slots reserved for RPC (Removable PC) and option "Recruit" when talking to NPC - obviously most will never do so, but there's a surprising number of those who will, including some from the factions hostile to each other. It works a bit bizarrely equipment-wise, however.

Line 32 ⟶ 33:
Under the condition of three square meals a day, [Overlord Laharl] has joined the group. }}

{{quote|[[Butt Monkey|Tink]] was enrolled as a student while still unconscious.
Mao has received the most badass [[Makai Kingdom|Notebook]] ever. }}
*** At one point early in the game you get the message "Raspberyl ended up traveling with you" however she doesn't officially join your party till later.
