Agreed. It is sad, because when I started the full game, I had the feeling, that Wyll had the making of becoming as popular as Alistair from DAO. Whcih was never a favourite of mine - more because of his story than his personality, but Wyll was the knight in shining armor, witty banter and good looks (I mean, my lesbian ass might be off, but for me, Wyll is one of the best looking male characters in the game). I honestly liked his rewritten story up to the point, where he couldn't make his most important decision.
I don't keep tabs of who says what and how often, but it was clear, that Wyll had a lot less reactivity to events than fan favourites Shadowheart and Astarion for example. When he had something to say, it was great, but often, he didn't .

In the last weeks I had the feeling, that Wyll was gaining on popularity, I saw a lot more Wyll fan art and topics about him on the Reddit subforums for example, so my hope is, that there is maybe a bit more coming.
