Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Please make Halsin a companion

Since Larian implements a lot of references to DOS:2 (ship tutorial, overall story, the way we meet our companions, party lock in act II) i personally see Halsin as a resemblance of Garreth.
I would love to have him as a party member and love his design, but i think he will stay as close friend to the party who chills at your camp - even though he develops an interesting story like Garreth did.

I mean..Halsin(Garreth) is the kind and friendly leader of the Druids Cave (Seekers), you save him from Goblins (Magistern) and bring him back to his people, he joins your camp (ship) crew, has a close friend who was
tempted to the dark - shadow curse guy (jonathan in dos 2).

Thats no criticism though, i do love both characters

I don't really see why Halsin would be emotional about Kahga, unless they had a bang I wasn't aware of.

And yeah, dudes have it real bad as of now: a choice between a nymphomaniac or an edgy girl who seems to regret the kiss afterwards. I mean, tough luck.

That scene is not approval bound, I always speak with Zorru the first chance I get, and that scene always triggers, regardless of approval, the only prerequisite for it speaking with Zorru, don't need to use illithid powers (like I mentioned many times, I go out of my way to not use them - unless I'm testing something). But there is also little fun extra line if you trigger that scene AFTER Astarion's grand vampire reveal. What I don't understand is, why we don't get any approval with him during the stargazing, I mean, if can heavily flirt with him for crying out loud, he normally enjoys any flirts, so how come there is no approval? Another thing for Larian to fix. So, like I said, as of now, Astarion has NO APPROVAL bound conversation's whatsoever, which is sad. His stuff is usually triggered by events...

Oh yeah, there would need to be some relationship between them. I thought it would be just an easy excuse and implementation.
Kagha is a bit of wasted potential I feel like, even with her little secret; but there could be some stuff about her, that is still missing or we could learn in later acts, so who knows.

Rest of the reply as we are getting very OOT - https://forums.larian.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=724801#Post724801

Please no for having Halsin have been in a romantic relationship with Kagha of all people.

A drinks scene with Halsin at the party would be perfect. No need to add drama about past relationships and especially not one with Kagha.

How about...
Let us romance Kagha think?

I think Halsin's party camp scene could be more like Shadowheart's, where it's just bonding as setting up the potential romance rather than just sex. It would be nice for female players to have access to a more traditional slow burn romance that just starts out as something sweet and innocent.

All my +1 are belong to this. Side with the goblins, get wild drow sexy times. Side with the druids, get a romantic walk through the forest with a handsome wood elf. I might leave both Gale and Astarion to their own devices if that was an option.

I too would like to join the Halsin fan club. He is definitely the most unique elf character I've seen lol. And romance route, yes please. Imagine just chilling with the Bear and hearing him talk about nature stuff in that nice voice while he feeds you weird wild berries and leaves. Hehe

He doesn't have a tadpole so it's unlikely. Tadpoles seem to be the glue keeping companions together, and overriding personal motivation when playing as origin. He also joins party late, which make him barred from being an origin, and as far as I am aware, BG3 is still aimed to be a 4 COOP RPG.
