i love and miss baldurs gate so much but every time i remember how the fandom and writing team treats wyll i simply dont want to think about it anymore. like i shouldnt be surprised because this is a dnd video game but it's crazy how far people are willing to go to pretend all of it is not racism. wyll is too boring and yet halsin (who is even more boring mind you) gets more attention then him in fan content, same with rolan and dammon and all other side characters in the game. he's never in anything promotional and it's pretty clear at this point the writers are Not Going to fix it. i love wyll so much i literally want to eat him alive but the wave of frustration i experience every Single Time i think of bg3 does not feel good

#like. rdr2 fandom is a rockstar game and certainly they are not absolved from racism #but because its been years since release the fandom is smaller and it is so far less common #but additionally the base game for the most part handles its racism very well #and this is me. Mean Hater Bitch. saying this and rockstar who focuses on satire #so many people are just so blatantly racist to wyll and they go so far as to HARASS people who talk about him #and this is not like esp shocking. anime fandom is also horrendous about this!#but in a game and in a fandom that CLAIMS to promote diversity as it has queer characters you would think there would be more. idk.#actual care and perception put into their one black lead. i know i talk about it Everyday but its like. so bad like worse than i have seen #in recent years for video game fandoms like. christ alive #z.gen #larian critical
