For those who missed it, Cressup's twitch interview with Samantha will be up on Cress' YT channel in the coming days. Samantha answered questions for about an hour, all spoiler-free but I'd give it a listen anyway if I were you.
What stuck with me was how Karlach was essentially an EA addition because of the feedback from fans, how the rest were pretty much edgelords the whole bunch. So her creation, the personality, the character we came to love, was written specifically with us players in mind. Now how the hells did this same character get their happy freedom fought and gained ending taken away from her? HUH? How is that even remotely alright. Man, I will pick the Avernus ending every single time until we get something else, but I don't support them being the only options. Even if badass, even if alive, I still know there's so much implemented in the game that could do for an engine fix on the upper plane. The character designed to be a force of good and joy and wishing to get some of that childlike innocence back because it was taken away from her, needs better than bringing her pal and love interest back to Avernus. 12 levels higher yes, but then gimme a dang DLC or something. ANYTHING LARIAN, I'LL TAKE ANYTHING AT ALL
