Please Larian, don't take into consideration everything the community asks for. Not even me. Some feedback is necessary, but many times the community has no idea what they are requesting, and demand things without understanding what design decisions have led to them. No locking party or losing companions after Act I, parties composed of six members, level 20, main character's voice, Halsin as companion ... the noise that can be made by an intransigent minority doesn't represent the opinion of a reasonable majority.
If I say that Halsin won't be a companion because Larian won't remake Act I, I get buried in negative votes. You can't argue with a spoiled kids, they will get angry if you tell them their fantasy is unreasonable. They don't matter the budget, narrative reasons or whatever. They don't matter if we already have 8 other partners, they want Halsin. These kids don't understand that this character already has a role to fulfill. Don't get me wrong, we'd all be happy with one more companion, but sometimes a fanservice sex scene is enough to make that minority satisfied. Memes spread faster than arguments.
This has been just one example of hundreds I could list here.
There are too many posts like "LARIAN I DEMAND THIS", this post is "Larian, do what you have to do". Don't be afraid of disappointing narcissistic kids with low frustration tolerance.
