hot take moment cwilbur is literally just psychotic as all hell and i think people got way too comfortable villianizing the shit out of a man who was clearly portraying signs of severe mental illness. cwilbur was like im so fucking paranoid and scared and i think everyone is out to get me and hurt me and ive spiralled to the point i cant reach out to the people closest to me because im so afraid and lost in this spiral and im having constant panic attacks and hurting myself because i dong know what to do with myself and the only way out for me is to die. and everybody was like EVIL MAN WHO ENJOYS HURTING OTHERS AND IS ABUSIVE ON PURPOSE AND A VILLAIN AND SHOULD NEVER BE TRUSTED AGAIN. and then he came back and was like im still deeply troubled and afraid but im desperately trying to make up for the wrongs i did in the past and the people i hurt in my own way and communication is really hard for me but i hope people know that im truely sorry and i love them. im going to try my hardest to fix this in the only way i know how and then respectfully remove myself from the situation because i feel thats the kindest thing i can do to the people ive hurt. and people were like ABUSER ABUSER ABUSER EVIL MAN ABUSER. like girl
Yeah no based true real no questions asked
I'd hope I manage to portray Wilbur the way he deserves in my content, cause that man is heavily bpd coded and he just needs therapy and someone who genuinely loves him but also can handle his bullshit (which has exclusively and reliably been Quackity like, canonically)
But yeah no completely agreed. The man has issues and has definitely fucked up a lot but at the end of the day he really does need love and care and patience, but also boundaries (and therapy and meds, obviously)

Astarion, who believes in power, and that power guarantees freedom, and the strong manipulate the weak, would never give up the ritual for the sake of "morality". it's unnatural for his personality. I do not know for what reason he could have changed except for the "good hero Tav", who "showed him the opposite". what is really typical and banal? boring. at least for me.
EDIT: I completely misread the start of this ask, wait. You said "I do not know for what reason he could have changed except for the good hero Tav who showed him the opposite". My previous answer was about thinking you considered Tav too moralistic, but I missed that except word in there, so this is not about Tav themselves or Durge, it is just about how you see videogames.
The thing is... what about Shadowheart? What about Lae'zel? All the companions change because of Tav/Durge and their actions and words. That is literally LITERALLY what rpgs are.
Have you ever played other rpgs?
You will always encounter some characters you can influence. That is because this is a roleplaying experience, it is a staple of rpgs since - way way back.
Also... "showed him the opposite" is also not correct given that you can literally play as evil and still convince him to ascend. Astarion does not become an "all moral character" out of a sudden. He is still himself, just because you have less occasions to see him reacting as himself post his quest (because the game is almost over) it does not mean that you changed him completely.
What you are validating is the way he SEES himself. He sees the other spawns as himself, he saw himself as weak, he was basically victim blaming himself for being Cazador's victim. You are validating the fact that he does feel guilt and responsability. Validating being the key word.
In general regarding the whole spawn romance:
I'm sad honestly that something written so obvious is flying over your head. You think Astarion is and has always be a toxic abuser? Yikes.
Edit: adding this because I wrote this too quickly. Dark urge for the anon because they seem to find a good tav showing the way to Astarion paternalistic/unreciprocated.

I keep thinking abt Zoruru and Taruru's potential as a comedic duo. Yall don't understand how funny but also potentially emotionally investing I think they are. Like on one hand we got this kid fresh out of training with hopes and dreams to achieve, already at a good point in his career because hey, he got accepted into one of the most elite platoons their army has to offer! What more could a guy like him possibly ask for? And on the other we have an old man who at this point is completely disillusioned with the Keron Army, never wanted to find anything worthwhile there to begin with -- he only joined to go after his true objective. He's not moved by ambition, but rather revenge.
Their personalities are the polar opposite of each other which you'd think would cause them to clash. There's teasing, playful banter (from Taruru) and half hearted threats (from Zoruru), but in spite of that they get along surprisingly well. That's because they have one thing in common: neither wants to be put aside. They both want to make something of themselves. They want to be recognised; Zoruru, by those who wronged him, and Taruru, by... everyone. He might be not exactly sure, but he wants people to recognise his worth. In that process, they both train hard to work towards that goal. Maybe together, maybe separately, but the idea is that they both end up doing exactly that: they acknowledge the other's abilities. And later, each other. As people.
They both get exactly what they need out of this unlikely bond. Taruru finds someone who recognises him as being apart from the crowd ("not a background character", as he put it in the GRR platoon arc), and Zoruru finds what he's always looked for, even though he might have forgotten it along the way: a genuine friend. Taruru gets the older keronian to loosen up, if minimally, while Zoruru reminds the younger one to not place his trust in a single life path.
They're not just great comrades, they're genuinely good for each other.
