Yes, I personally chose him as an option for "adult romance" even though my experience in EA was short and my full opinion on Halsin was shaped only while I was playing the release version. But the more I learn about Halsin's EA version the more I realise that this is what he needs, he needs to be brought back, he had such a potential: the story of his glaive, the scenario about Isobel, etc. His lines sounded different, his character had much more emotions and different sides, he actually was a scholar and a healer. So, under perfect circumstances what Halsin needs is his original personality and story.
I have so much thoughts right now based on EA info, I need to write them down somewhere. Maybe something like a fanfic. Or else.

100% agree, the EA Halsin has been a joy, he was really a man of science and knowledge, he seemed to be untouched by the bad things in the world, but more like someone who always sought to solve those problems. His personality was sharp, smart, mostly on point, fair but not accepting everything and - most important - really an adult.
Most of those traits got removed for reasons we can only speculate on.
