To the delight of RPG fans, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is replete with content that most players will likely never lay eyes on. Such a robust array of content offerings is thanks in no small part to the various companions that users can recruit throughout their adventures. Fan-favorite recruits include the likes of Astarion and Karlach, both of whom have interesting personal stories and can develop into compelling romance options. Yet, there\u2019s one origin character who receives the short end of the stick, according to BG3 faithful \u2013 Wyll. One player took the time to closely examine why the Warlock feels so underserved in the otherwise content-rich experience. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans say Origin character Wyll \u201cdeserved better\u201d After completing two BG3 runs, Redditor blue_suede_shoe concluded that \u201cWyll deserved better.\u201d As someone who loved the Warlock\u2019s early access content, the player used their second playthrough to dive more into the Wyll-centric content, only to find it considerably lacking. This is especially obvious when looking at the amount of dialogue afforded to each Origin companion. Linking to a breakdown by YouTuber Chubblot, the Redditor noted that Astarion has well over 12 hours of voice lines, same with Shadowheart. Lae\u2019zel and Karlach both get more than 10 hours of dialogue. Wyll, on the other hand, has 8 1\/2 hours of similar content. Apparently, Wyll\u2019s number of romance scenes in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 doesn\u2019t compare to his counterparts, either. The Reddit user continued, \u201cAdditionally, Wyll is the only romance to lack an intimacy scene, the closest we get to one consists of literally rolling around on the ground.\u201d The dearth of content even applies to Wyll\u2019s own character arc. \u201cAnd arguably, Wyll\u2019s Act 3 resolution revolves more around the Emperor than himself\u2026 He quite literally takes a backseat to the Emperor in his own storyline.\u201d Notably, the original poster isn\u2019t alone in their thinking. Several responses to the Reddit thread similarly lament Wyll\u2019s relatively minimal focus in the acclaimed Larian-made RPG. Explained one person, \u201cI think what helps contribute to Wyll being less memorable than Gale and Karlach, despite sharing similar lack of content, is the lack of engagement scenes in his storyline.\u201d Players can perform magic and stargaze with Gale, for example. Wyll doesn\u2019t have comparable hangout sessions with the protagonist. Another fan chimed in, \u201cWow. I knew Wyll was holding the short stick but I didn\u2019t know it was THIS short.\u201d It seems most would agree the folk legend did indeed deserve better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players disappointed by one Origin character\u2019s lack of content Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans aren\u2019t happy with the fact that Origin character Wyll has comparatively less content than the rest.
