People really want to make it a competition.
We got something over something else. Taking things as singular rather than as part of a whole.
I think Larian is very aware of what fans are saying and asking for. They are mostly adding things in that we're missing, or clarifying things that were too ambiguous before. You don't have to agree with it, but it's their prerogative so that their story comes across as much as it can.
I believe everyone else had a change in line when you were high approval when you dismissed them, but Lae'zel didn't, so it was more something to represent a change in relationship than make her 'nice'.
A lot of 'changes' they made to Gale were because his triggers and flags were wrong. It wasn't intended he acted the way he did. They didn't tone him down, they put him back to how he should have been.
There has been nothing added to any character that changes anything significant, they've added some options because the original options were rather all or nothing and no in between.
And so, I think why we haven't seen much of anything for Wyll is because what's needed for him to feel as interactive as the others, is that he needs something NEW to be added in, rather than anything additional, and Larian are probably reluctant to do that when the game's overall story is finished. Wyll's story, as lacking as it is, is still rounded and finished. Wyll could be the prettiest white, blond man, and sure, we'd see more art and shipping, but that wouldn't change the facts on his character story. I don't think Larian would be any quicker to change or add to it because the problem lies elsewhere.
I am just begging people to stop taking things as absolute and in a vacuum when it's very much a case for the opposite. If it's not for you, then you need to examine that, and not call other fans entitled when you're the one that's acting that way.
