Can you imagine that face and that voice going all "squeeeee" on your date?

Contrast makes for better characters. That face coupled with the behaviour pattern of a valley girl could have at least been amusing, if not necessarily likeable.

I now realize why they changed Karlach's looks from this:

This one actually looks battle-scarred, like she's seen some shit in the Blood War. Can you imagine that face and that voice going all "squeeeee" on your date?
this looks miles better than what we have now.

But it doesn't really matter now since her personality is just awful.

Yeah, it’s a shame. That dyke actually looks like an interesting character as opposed to the rest of the gang. Instead it seems like we got Blood War Survivor Pixie Chick

Some people are saying they changed Wyll to be evil? Is that confirmed on the panel? All i hear is they rewrite it and now he wants to kill Karlach.

your overreacting incels
obviously white women want to fuck dogs and this sentiment simply has to be moved into an abstract fantasy world for reasons I'm unable to list but which make sense in my mind

I don't think he's explicitly evil since his new background (apparently) just is that his patron uses him to kill her enemies. But in the panel from hell Sven also said that it's possible to spare Karlach if you run into her with Wyll in the party, so I don't get the impression that he's an outright murderhobo that can't be reasoned with.

Imagine the early model

Baldurs-Gate-3-Hunt-the-Devil-sidequest-Karlach-Anders-.jpg
God she looked atrocious early design
It's less early desgin more placeholder. This is just a face created using the character creator.
True probably they were in the drawing board just had the concept in mind, Tiefling female companion and thats it.

glad dnd has moved past boring humans to just make boring demons and NotOrcs instead
if you see some idiot claim using humans in d&d for character parties and such is boring, remember to check their Early Life section
you make human player characters for them to be relatable despite the fact that they fight penis monsters and cast firefart

Even if party is limited to 4 it looks like it’s going to be a struggle to have 3 non-cringe companions. As always, it will come down to whether combat is good.

Why do you even care about all of these romancing options? I thought the Codex would be above all of that juvenile shit. I have zero interest in exploring these possibilities, so all of this outrage because there's apparently no interesting spouse to be found should have zero influence on your game. Take a breath, go outside.

Even if the option does occur during your game, just reject. I've got a feeling most of you are intimately familiar with this concept, so it should come easy.

I agree don’t give a shit about romance but I want good options for human team with maybe one elf or w/e sprinkled on top like BG2.

see? that's what i was talking about. codex LIKES TO PRETEND to be some presigious place. in reality nothing can make codex retards more giddy and type pages upon pages of cringe than opportunity to worship demons and fuck bears. warhammer thread - "i want to be khaoz and fuck sister of battle!" bg3 thread - well, you all can see how it's going. "demon abomination iz not demon enough!"
