And I do like the Avernus ending too, I just feel mounting resentment towards Karlach. ^^
This might be a bit controversial since so many people like Karlach, but I feel like her late addition to the game contributed to these unfinished plot points (there are a myriad of other reasons too). I love her as a character, she’s sweet and fun and her actor is insanely talented. They might’ve put most of their resources into including her in the story but honestly that effort could’ve went to making sure the story actually made sense first. Even her own story is suffering as a result of adding more characters when you have a list of unfinished plots. The focus was on the wrong things.
(Also kinda bitter about the attention to detail she got as a late addition, but in particular regarding her condition when it comes to romance scenes with other tavs/companions. What applies to Karlach before she got her engine cooled could apply to Gale too with his orb. In his origin if you’re going to get freaky with someone before Elminster, you can do so without consequence but when you romance him he says he can’t do anything due to his orb issue. It’s inconsistent with his story. Her interactions are certainly unique and I wish other characters got the same treatment)
But this thread isn’t for Karlach, it’s for Wyll. However those 2 are synonymous with each other and you can’t mention one without the other, which is another problem that introducing her brought on for Wyll’s story. He can’t just be Wyll, he has to have someone else in the story in order to make him relevant.
