I came to like Wyll a lot because he is the one companion, I would very much be best friends with in real life. He has a lot of good things going on for him. My other favourite is Karlach, but she already has enough people speaking out for her, and Lae'zel and Gale, but their storylines are pretty good already.
So I started to campaign for Wyll a bit, since I actually like the rewrite and think, that Theo dies a really great job as a voice actor ( have you seen the DnD campaign with him, Sam, Devra and Neil? Hilarious). They should have invested in calling him in again and give him some more dialogues, because judging by the DnD campaign,where he plays Wyll, he could do so much more with the character, if they would let him.

I actually love, when games have a down to earth, best friend kind of character in a game, like Varric in Dragon Age or Mercurio in Vampire Bloodlines.

I think Wyll would make a good protagonist in BG3. To be honest, I don't have much of an interest in most of the companions except for Astarion. A few are just okay, and some I just can't stand. I lost interest in most of their backstories. I started playing this game pretty late, so I never followed most of the updates. But from what I've seen so far, it seems that more focus was put on the dating sim side of the game and less on the story itself.

It would be cool for Wyll's voice actor to be given more opportunities. Hopefully that happens.


I mostly don't care for Astarion, Shadowheart and Halsin, I'm pretty invested in the rest - I like the stories of Wyll and Lae'zel the most and love the personalities of Gale, Karlach, Jaheira and Minsc. Well, Minthara is just funny, she doesn't have much content, but great lines, that make me laugh.

For me, Wyll is a great bridge between the pnp campaign Descend to Avernus, which is basically the prelude to BG3 and introduces hells and Duke Ravenguard, Lae'zel is great to explain githyanki culture and the illithid thread to us.
