We're not demanding for the expressions to be changed, though. Asking for a way to keep the expressions we already have is the opposite of that. It's up to the studio to decide if they want to implement a way to choose.

That's not fair. I love Astarion, I don't think Patch 6 changed him, and I don't want my character's story to change now. I don't think it's necessary to imply people who liked the story as it was don't really love the character.
