When Eothas goes to destroy the Wheel him and the gods claim that this will bring the cycle of reincarnation to a halt. I think that the gods have once again lied to the Watcher because the Wheel is probably what enables the gods to exist/exercise their influence over the Beyond (Like dictating who's soul gets reincarnated where/when). What makes the claim ring falsely with me is that surely civilization could not have progressed to Engwithan levels if there wasn't an innate cycle of rebirth. They certainly needed more than one generation to figure out how to build the Wheel. How could Engwithan newborns gain souls? I don't know if this is stated anywhere but the souls could surely only come from the Beyond, meaning that there must be a way that souls can progress from stage to stage without the wheel (my bet is that Adra is this natural conduit). Anyway I was surprised the Watcher gets no opportunity to question such an obvious logical gap. Maybe I just missed some piece of the story which explains that? Let me know

Not sure if this is exactly in the right category, or if it will even get a proper response from the dev team. But here goes. Tyranny was an amazing experience, but it felt like it was more or less a practice exercise to see what the engine could do and to stretch the writing muscles. So then I want to know what if any lessons the team will apply to PoE2? Ex: Will field interactions be coming back? Is the skill system changing? Will the magic system be changing and will it be more like Tyranny? Will the encounter philosophy be changing at all? To my fellow players I ask: What would you pick out of Tyranny to try and incorporate into PoE2?
