Halsin... I don't dislike him so much as I don't really acknowledge him. He sits in camp and has that one quest and beyond that he's not really a thing.
Wyll is annoying, since he likes to cry about everything "Oh woe is me, I have a pact with a devil that I made willingly" "Oh woe is me, turns out devils are mean" "Oh woe is me, my dad who disowned me because of my pact with a devil is in danger". As well as his weird, creepy "Hit on all the girls" banter...
But, my least favourite has to be Gale. Because despite his nice demeanor, his entire situation was caused by his narcissistic arrogance. He literally had it all, the vast expanse of the weave (Available to mortals), sleeping with a literal goddess, friends with Elminster. But he decided he wanted more. Enough to disregard Mystra's wishes (Showing he didn't really care about her, or at the very least, cared about his own wants more) and try to access the parts of the weave forbidden to mortals.
Then he turns around and starts flirting with you. "There's few I'd consider special" I bet Gale, because you care about yourself more than anyone else. At least Astarion has a reason to be self-centred, he spent several decades being tortured as a slave to a Vampire. What's your excuse Gale?
It's like we didn't even play with the same companion or something. Wyll doesn't even mention Mizora by name before she shows up to make his life difficult, and then only when you ask him about his past
(after she puts him on the spot), and when she forces herself on the party. Outside of that he barely talks about her or his pact. Or complains in general. Especially not about his father, who he talks solemnly about once, when he talks about his past.
I can't stand Astarion. He's legit my only truely disliked companion and is only my lockpicker and pickpocketer. Otherwise, he's my camp's squatter. His selfish and brooding edgelord nonsense gets old VERY fast. Minthara (who I'm not a huge fan of, because I dislike Drow) was spot on about him. The only redeeming thing about him or his character to me, ONLY occurs when you go out of your way to leave everyone in camp and talk to the source of his problem, with only Astarion in the room, after said problem has been defeated. Because he actually does the right thing.
:edit:
I'll never understand Wyll hatred. He's perfectly fine. But I guess because he's not a sociopath or cruel, he's "boring." Which is ridiculous.
