EA Wyll posting
Was reading a bunch of Wyll posts and it got me thinking about one of my biggest gripes with what was changed post-EA. In EA Wyll acknowledges his upper-class upbringing and basically admits to being spoiled. But as you see him in EA it's clear that his time as the blade of frontiers made him grow beyond that. He might have a few hangups still (mostly being selfish) but everyone is flawed.
Meanwhile in Release he is so quick too point out that he wasn't like all the other upper-class citizens of Baldur's Gate. How he was taught the hard way by his father and all that. He loses that part that makes his growth as the blade of frontier apparent. Also I can't help but to find the whole "upper-class but not spoiled" thing just a bit insincere and too much like the writer wanted to make him more "likable" and "down-to-earth" while still keeping him as a prominent figure son.
