#Aloth pillars of eternity 2 romance full

She's a great character idea that goes absolutely nowhere. In Ydwin's case, she does have a quite extensive recruitment dialogue, that paints an interesting picture. I think only Rekke has some limited dialogue options after 30 days of playtime. Sadly, no - apart from very limited number of interjections (Rekke has most of them - 11, Ydwin has 8, Fassina has 3, by comparison, Aloth has about 250 and Pallegina about 300) they are completely silent throughout the whole game. I have a feeling I accidentally opened a can of worms with that post. Don't understand what's so wrong with that. Ironic, given how Xoti herself actually turned out.īut I think Ydwin was always popular with the fans at large - her backstory was interesting, her paraphernalia were memorable (or at least striking) and, yes I won't lie - a lot of people actually wanted a good-looking elven female companion. Hey, I wasn't a big fan of Maia and Xoti when they were first announced, but I actually kept my mouth shut and my mind open.

Despite, y'know, us not knowing anything about her and her story hook (rogue animancer from White that Wends) being quite cool and interesting.

I recall that when first announced, some people immediately condemned Ydwin to be 'a shallow pandering anime yandere waifubait, created to appeal to lowest common denominator' for commiting a capital offense of being a good-looking elven female - and that opinion kinda stuck with her for a LONG time. Every NPC sounded like average Human Joe. Was a huge problem of the VA in original Pillars. With a VA that does not sound like Mister Joe, Texas. i want a cliched, grumpy dwarf, too (or 2, or 3 !). The general change of opinions still kind of strikes me.īut. It's not about condemning people who trolled the character at the time, but well. Well, i don't really need to bring any conclusion to my post. I read quite a lot of posts here and there asking for Ydwin lately. I guess one complaint was that she felt, at first, unoriginal compared to the cast members and PoE1's.

I'm not sure why but many things were assumed regarding the character, and many people did not really want her. I kind of remember that the choice of Ydwin as the possible 8th companion (5M stretchgoal, never reached) induced quite a lot of bad reactions on this board. My love for Aloth as a character was the primary reason I dropped +$200 on the kickstarter!

I love her! Is there *any* chance that she can still be fleshed out to a full companion in a DLC? I would happily pay.
