The trauma fetishism, the lack of growth, the forced unhealthy portrayal of polygamy, his horrid ending of just leaving you after the last fight and so forth has been rough. BUT even with that being said there are a lot of us who truly think Halsin could be an amazing companion if they'd give him more depth. He has such an AMAZING foundation if you truly boil him down to his apparent values and ambitions.

Obviously recent news has come out in the forum that Karlachs ending is going to have work done, I believe I saw or heard something about Minirtha's reactivity and possibly some cut content being added. With all that being said I truly have hope Larian will see the threads in regards to Halsin. I don't truly feel it's valid fan blaming that all anyone wanted was a big druid guy for horny reasons when there are 100% fans like myself who just want him to be a good companion. Until I see an update at least in regards to his ending I have completely paused my Halsin romance run through and will not finish it even though I'm in Baldur's Gate. He deserves some rectification.
Welcome to the thread dedicated to our beloved druid - https://forums.larian.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=879967&page=70
All of us (or most part of team Halsin) feel the same: we love him, he is the best, kind, wise, adult but not emotionless, he wants to help everyone and at the same time a player (mostly who romances him) wants to help him with all their heart. You can be big and strong but it is ok to show that you too have weaknesses.
Act 3 needs a lot or work and rework. There are many feedback messages in Larian's Discord about issues with Halsin (him only and his issues with Shadowheart), so, as I said several times, let us hope for the best.
