Hopefully, if that is the case, WotC won't give them any more licensing contracts.

Here's a question for all of you folks who have solomanced Halsin -- if one stays monogamous with him, and doesn't visit brothels or entertain devils, the only letdown is the end? I'm not giving this the thumbs up, I'm just wondering if I should risk it at all.

If you ask him about the status of your relationship, even solo, he will apparently refuse to say its a relationship at all, says monogamy isnt for him and uses "nature" as a reason for that. If your poly with him this could be acceptable, hes the side chick after all. Not so much if your solo, particularly after he says "I only want you."

"I only want you, you can bang other people if you want Im happy to join in, but I dont want to call what we have a relationship and monogamy is overrated" is what this ultimately comes down to.

And yes, the ending is the icing on the cake. He basically says "Ok well Imma go live my life now hope you come visit bye"

So wether or not its worth it is up you to and your emotional investment in the character. The old Halsin is still there sometimes it seems.
As person who romances Halsin solo, same here. "Yeah, I want only you, but no, rElAtIoNsHiPs is not my thing, we have something more fluid. So if you want to have +1 lover, I'm ok with this, I would like people to know happiness with you". (Oh how I don't like this phrase, gods help me).

Other than the gross "poly" talk, obviously. I know that is sadly unavoidable. But, I could deal with it if the rest of his veritable mess disappears from neglecting to take Shart with me.
I haven't seen any cringy dialogues between him and other companions in Act 3, SH has no interest in him. The drow scene, well, it exists anyway, but only if youwant this scene and only him is interested (if Halsin is with you during talk with twins. Astarion and SH has no opinion on that). He says "It remimds me of my youth. If you are interested than I am also ok" (well, you may already know), so he wants to know what the player wants. And afterwards (if you have sex with twins (although they act more like spectators, while you do things with Halsin) you have the dialogue about him being drow slave.
So during solo romance Halsin has zero interest in anybody but Tav.
