I hope that eventually Larian will add alternate paths to her story, allow the option to get her healed/fixed. I have a good aligned character. Karlach is the only companion that really fits with that kind of personality. She's the only one that isn't duplicitous or manipulative. She's not living consequences of bad decisions, she was betrayed and had horror inflicted upon her. I want to see that resolved in a happy manner for her. This is a fantasy story, not real life.

Once Larian add this content, I'll start the game over and be able to finish it this time. Right now, I have 85 hours in the game and I'm not going any further. If they never fix Karlach's ending, then I'm permanently done with the game. It was a good enough ride. It's a shame that I can't play more, but in the scheme of things, life is too short to do optional/elective things in my free time that don't make me happy. Those couple of hours a day that are mine are too important for me to waste them doing things that will leave me upset, sad, or disappointed.

This is pretty much the same for me. I have not progressed beyond Act 2 because I got spoiled about Karlach's endings. I have absolutely no desire to finish the game as it currently is, and it's a shame. And if they do stay determined with their railroaded storytelling about her, my party will remain in Act 2 forever.

This is genuinely how I've had to play. I get to Act 3 and refuse to progress further because Karlach features heavily in all playthroughs I got going. If they never fix it, I'll never finish it. I don't wanna half-ass something and live in a headcanon whilst everyone else gets their "live long and prosper" ending
