Hi,
There has been a lot of talk about how polygamy was implemented in the game, and while I won't list the reasons why I believe it was poorly implemented here, I will come with a suggestion to a DLC or content, I believe would be more respectful.
In this case I will use Halsin as an example (Astarion, I believe was a poor choice for polygamy given his history).
I would suggest that if they release DLC content that takes place after the game (or very late game), you can instead get a new love interest - and it would be lovely if it was someone Tav and Halsin could share feelings for if the player chose to do so. Doesn't have to be a companion, but a defined and involved character in your camp - like Isobel for example.
So I would suggest a new possible love interest where the following is possible:
- No relationship
- A one time encounter (seperately or together with Halsin)
- The love interest dates Tav (which is a relationship Halsin can be invited to join/prompted)
- Halsin can be encouraged to pursue on his own
Polygamy can be done in a healthy and equal way, which it does not portray at the moment. But it takes commitment by all parties involved (a Halsin issue very specifically, but that is another post).
In essence, what I personally think is needed is a healthy polycule.
Thank you for reading this.
