I just can't believe that the person (author) who made such an evil joke under fans will meet us halfway in at least something. Although, perhaps, autumn and cold are to blame for my pessimism.
It's an interesting thought. They keep claiming the game is this good in large thanks to feedback during EA. However, if this is how feedback is received, can they still expect to get any in the future? I think most people who wanted Halsin as romance companion would've rather been ignored than have what it turned out to be now.

Unless things change they burned bridges with you lot for the sake of a few extra sales from people who likely quit in act 1 and will not buy their next product.

This. I decided this a long time ago: if Halsin and the epilogues are not fixed in a reasonable time, I will not buy a Larian title again until I have read the forums and see that everything is complete and acceptable. For me the current situation is not at all acceptable, I pay for a complete and well-made game not because you remove the things that you announced weeks before and kill Halsin looking for the meme. But that's my opinion.

There are not a few of us in this thread pointing out the defects in the realization of the character. If Larian was looking for a meme that will be forgotten in a short time, if he was looking to create a memorable character it is an absolute failure. I want to believe as a software developer that they have gotten carried away by the rush to get it out quickly and the possibility of "publicity" derived from this, but that they will fix everything because nobody wants their characters to be forgettable like Halsin is right now

I have somewhat similar feelings about a game. To clarify I bought it 2 years ago when I found out that new Baldur's Gate game is in development. But the way game evolved in 3rd act. It's more horny than story.
Why to add bestiality in the game? Why to add Mizora sex scene? Why to glorify cheating(see SH and Astarion reaction on Mizora)? Why to add Haarlep scene if it is unfinished? Companions are basically watching and chilling. 0 reactivity. Halsin dude has such lore potential, but became cringe sex-toy. Similar with SH, Astarion. Sexually and mentally abused individuals get horny when enter a brothel. Every 2nd banter is about flirting/horniness. Everything for horny fan base. But there was no time and resources for 2 minutes slide show after beating 100+ hours campaign. I guess sales and GOTY status will prove that it was right strategy. Why it is Dead 3 again? Aren't there any other gods/powers in Faerun? Again Bhaalspawn, how unique. In the end I should blame only myself.
