      I loved Wyll's voice and personality in EA. Shame that they rewrote his story. Now he suffers from lack of content comparing to other characters. Overall i liked the vibe of EA a lot more. Our companions were a lot less nicer. At least in my opinion. I remember Astarion being more of a prick. Same with Lae'zel and Shart didn't really approve my ''good choices''. Wyll was up his own ass too and it was really interesting to me to have 90% of the companions that are more ''evil/neutral''. You usually get only one or two like that.

Like he barely gets any romance scenes until the last chapter, he doesn’t get the opportunity to actually challenge his father on being a dickhead to him, and you don’t really get a good “climatic” game changing choices. Just “sign contract again teehee?” Both his and Karlach’s stories seemed half finished which sucks but at least the patches gave us a hopeful ending for Karlach.

    In the Early Access, there were fishermen near the injured mind flayer at the crash site, trying to dig him up from the rubble. Their dialogue mentioned them each thinking there was a family member of theirs stuck under there or someone else they'd want to save, and there was I think a persuasion check to help them realize they're being influenced by a mind flayer.
    So yes, I think this "beautiful woman" is probably that - a mind flayer.

    The Volo's surgery also can not be performed if you had your eye messed with by Ethel. Ethel's "operation" on your eye does give you a tolerable debuff for the rest of the game but it is also the only way to make your one character's eye look blind if that's what you want (I did for my character specifically for the visual effect). Also if you don't like the way Volo's eye looks but still want the buff, you can find a mod on nexus that hides that visual effect.
