Oddly enough, what bothers me the most is that it throws off the statistics for Larian. They released data saying that Gale was the second most romanced character in the game, after Shadowheart.
Clearly, that's not true. People were forced into a romance with Gale. You can't learn real lessons about what players want when you have fundamentally bad data.
Not to mention, it ruined some of the characters for me.
