Baldur's Gate 3, you may have heard, was quite a good videogame. Good enough to make PCG history, even. But not every part of it shines equally. Wyll, the origin character and (if you're not playing as him) party member, is notoriously a little underbaked. He's so straightforwardly good as to be, well, maybe a little dull, and he even gets outshone by other characters in some of his own big plot scenes—not because of a deficit in his performance, but because of how those scenes were written.
It turns out that Wyll's writer, Kevin VanOrd (who also wrote Lae'zel, by the by), knows just how fans feel. In a Q&A on Reddit, VanOrd wrote in response to a question from a disappointed Wyll-liker that "I wish Wyll had gotten more content and a more fulfilling arc too." Alas, it sounds like circumstances conspired to make that difficult, if not impossible, to do.
