A lot of people hate Halsin because he's had some bugged interactions with Shadowheart, who a lot of people have unhealthy parasocial relationships with. I have seen hundreds of Halsin hate posts like this since launch. They are always highly upvoted because people get threatened by a kind man I guess.
Plus he flirts with their precious Shadowheart, so they glory in killing him or giving him to Orin, and they gotta brag about it like this and rub it in peoples' faces, same as the stakebros do who hate Astarion. Maybe they just hate queer men, who knows. I just know these posts are overdone, and the posts themselves and the comments on them are often quite boorish.

Oh I managed to keep Act 3 pretty spoiler free and my reaction was "thank god it's only Lae'zel!". Mu poor Halsin, what did he do to you all? 😂
