It sounds like Dragon's Dogma 2's Pawns won't repeat themselves nearly as much as they did in the first game.
If you haven't played the original Dragon's Dogma, you should. It's an excellent RPG many liken to an underrated Skyrim, but I'd argue that aside from a surface level similarity in general tone and aesthetics, they're pretty different games. One key distinction in Dragon's Dogma is the Pawn system, which lets you recruit Arisen-like NPCs to fight and evolve alongside you.
