If they will address this problem (if at all) through many small patches adding unfinished or rushed pieces of it all just to "calm us down", it will be obvious and no one will be happy with that, not them, not us.

If we're unhappy about how something was done the first time, then I'd much rather they do it right the second time (I don't count the patch since it's an extension of an existing thing not quest stuff), not, like. The fifth. I'd also much rather no one has to crunch for it.

I personally would prefer to wait longer and receive The Quest (and hopefully The Ending Variation, but yada yada) than a bunch of band aids. Come on now, we're not babies, we can wait. And if we talk about "justice" then I think we all agree that this character deserves quality. And quality takes time.

I can't agree more here. I, personally, wouldn't want to see another band aid or an extension to an existing ending. And yeah, just imagine how much work and time "one quest" might take... VOs for every possible outcome, possible group banter / reactions to Tav's actions, mocap, coding. I periodically read through patch notes comment section on Steam and every time I go through new comments it makes me realise how much work they have on their hands now, it's crazy! Mac people still can't play the game at all for example, every new hotfix brings more problems and bricks some people's saves etc.

I also am ready to wait longer (for as long as it might take) to get the ending Karlach TRULY deserves - a good one where she stays in Faerun with her friends (given they are going to add a happy ending at all). And don't get me wrong here, if, by some miracle, Larian decide to make "Karlach's new quest packed with a happy ending" a number one priority, I wouldn't mind at all, it'll make me very happy, but realistically, I think they will be addressing performance issues first, optimize the game further, work towards releasing the game for Mac users, prepare for Xbox launch yadda yadda. Bottom line is, again, I'm happy to wait for as long as needed.

And a little remark. It actually warms my heart how many people have come here to share their opinions on the matter, I'd like to thank you all, folks. I was worried I'll be the only one displeased with Karlach's arc and endings. I'm glad I'm not alone!
