Thays my two cents, i wish they would included back EA wyll but its already a lost cause now.
I liked EA Wyll as well. And I am fine with new Wyll too, he really was the only male companion that made good impression on my first run (with others acting like creeps). But it is patch six and none of the bugs I have reported got fixed, with dialogues lacking the proper reactivity towards his quest. His father included. Not only that, I've got new bugs when doing Ansur's quests, with three different dialogue versions triggering one after another. Meanwhile Gale's buggy romantic advances got fixed very quickly after launch, and his dialogue in the weave scene got adjusted. Reminded me how Larian kept patching Gale's biggest downside (needing powerful magical.items) to the point where it is more of a joke now.
