Where people say that «Not everyone need have a good ending» and something like that, I just look on other companions… I mean, mostly companions can have not just good ending, but a perfect ending without pointing angel in it:
Wyll:
Can broke his contract with Mizora. Save his father. And become Blade of Avernus (with him seems really happy and excited) – Perfect ending, no sacrifices.
Gale:
Not blowing up. Reconciled with Mistra. Get the crown, and after this get a treatment and become Mistra chosen one again - Perfect ending, no sacrifices.
Halsin:
His grow now safe and well. And forest the dark curse was healed - Perfect ending, no sacrifices.
Lae`zel:
Get TWO ancient red dragons that before it belongs to Orpheus. Become leader of Gith liberation against Vlaakit, her people saver and Orpheus chosen one - Perfect ending, no sacrifices.
Jaheira and Minsk:
They both alive, safe and cool. Absolute was destroyed so… I think they happy how - Perfect ending, no sacrifices.
There only two character get a good ending with drop of butter:
Shadowheart:
She is escaping from Shar curse and control and now know who is she and have freedom. But lose her parents (she can escape from Shar and save them too, but will be safer from pain attacks) – Good ending with little pointing.
Astarion:
He gets his freedom. Kill the master that tormented him. Saved his old victims lives and lives of others Cazador`s vampire slaves. And get someone that really appreciate him and seeing good inside his heart. But now he burns under the sun - Good ending with little pointing.
And there we have Karlach:
She doesn't get a treatment for engine. She not rid of Zariel attention and still being chased by her. Only she did is: Kill Gortash and make a friend. In her best possible ending (Avernus) she goes to the hard life in hell, while she must without sleep and rest fight against Zariel forces for her life – Bad ending.
With all of it I really don’t understand when people saying: «Not everyone should have good ending and tragic ending not bad!». With all this good ending for EVERYONE, I just don’t understand this argument. I accept it if we have at least 2-3 other companion with ending that don’t give us any choice (that’s another problem – in game that promoted as game with many choices – not give player any choose is just wrong), but as you see.
Ps – We don’t talk about Mintara… She’s have even more problem than Karlach… But Larian promise fix her, so maybe she`s become better soon.




And about Karlach orientation P.S – For my opinion she is pansexual, because
she said to D.Urge that she doesn’t care about them`s body and looks. But her sex scenes (especially the second one) definitely was doing with female Tav in mind. She is doesn’t have a different animation for male character at all, I think, it’s one of the arguments about her not being finished (but I don’t see other character sex scenes so don’t know how good they with it).


Justice for Karlach!
