Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Thank You for Making Halsin a Companion!!!

Yep, a real force of nature. Can't wait till full release when Halsin will be a companion.

Aww, this is all so nice and heartwarming. It's true, the writer absolutely deserves kudos as well, and it would be cool if - someday, somewhere - he posted more details about his original direction for the character and how that changed, both based on the performance and the fan reception. But I'm nerdy about such things, who knows if anyone else would be interested.

I can't shake a small amount of worry that expanding Halsin is going to screw up all the things I loved about him, but I'll put my faith in Larian (and say a few prayers to the Oak Father ).

Yes, thanks to both Halsin’s voice actor and writer! They did amazing work!💕

Can't wait to see his tender side.

Oh Astarion got to see his tender side alright.

Love the cute bird on his arm.😊

Awww. But their estimate of when I'll finally get to see his tender side... boy, that is probably way, way off, especially if his romance content doesn't kick in until Act II. It might be weeks for me.

SOS! Message to the other Halsin lovers in this thread! When you finally finish his romance, please consider making a post here detailing how - in your opinion - it went! I don't mind spoilers, I need to know. I'll catch up... eventually...

Would be happy to do so, but I am pretty sure it will take me longer than you to complete the game.😜 I always take a long time to finish games, and I will be splitting my play time between a multiplayer and a single player run. For my single player game I am going to recruit him asap!🎉

I was thinking the romance might start in Act 1 and that the bear scene might be after the party.😊

I doubt it, because on Panel from Hell they said that he went with us to the city even if he does not like cities and as was shown on Panel that scene is in the city.

Yeah, I have a feeling it's going to be a slow burn. Even on top of the several years it's already been a slow burn.

Yeah, I think it will starts just before ACT 3.

😢

Hopefully they have something after the party at least!

Puts on tinfoil hat

Maybe this is part of the reason for Halsin being a poly option - so you can romance someone else while waiting for his romance to kick off, without locking yourself out of the latter.

Soon will see. Can't wait.

And than dump the first one for a Halsin?

Depends on whether the first one is also up for some polyamory. We still don't really know how this multi-romance system is going to work.

From 50:00 Swen is talking about bear scene, Halsin and romance scenes.

No intimacy coordinator for the bear scene because there was no bear!😂😂😂

Quote from new CU

It all sounds really interesting. For other people. I'm so boring, I just pick one love interest per character and stick with them the whole way through any game. All these choices sound great, though, I'm always for more choices and more ways to play out a story.
