its a really big bummer to see the mass success of bg3, to see how many artists and players alike have enjoyed this game and yet, somehow, almost every time, wyll is magically not mentioned or drawn, featured in a video, hes not adored or hated

so far the fandom just generally acts like hes not even there. and it makes me sad to see the single black companion get this level of people ignoring him, his arc, his personality, even just people disliking or hating him

instead the only thing that caught any wind was how quickly a mod came out to make wyll white. how fucking sad.

#bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #look i know there are others who also like wyll i know #but its the sheer level where he is fully ignored as a character that absolutely sends me #ive seen ppl rage at hating gale and shadowheart- ive seen the adoration for karlach and astarion #but theres no sense of emotion for wyll #its like people just ... i dunno i doubt its purposeful but it just /feels/ like racism #theres only one black man - the rest of your companions are white - and hes the ONLY ONE out of the ENTIRE PARTY thats just ignored?#hes such a goofball - yet he takes himself so seriously - his romance scenes were so touching - theres so much to wyll ...#karlach and wyll are such a good pair to have running together bc they are both good people who want to do good #i just ... i dunno. makes my heart hurt to see the only black character get shoved into oblivion
