DLC/Expansion Idea: Death Godlike

[RomanTorchwick]

I really liked the way Avowed put us into the perspective of a Godlike and made it feel meaningful.

I've had this RP Idea for a Death Godlike tasked with balancing the wheel since I first played PoE 2 and could duel wield pistols.

Basically a grim reaper/bounty hunter type godlike quest, where you get sent after murderers, corrupt officials, necromancers, undead or those who seek immortality in a way that threatens the cycle of reincarnation, and others who may be responsible for imbalances but not so evil, facing the godlike with moral dilemmas where they have to decide where to balance duty with mercy and justice, and perhaps seek suitable substitutes to balance their decisions.

I thought it might make an interesting DLC.

Considering Avowed follows Deadfire but does not address the wheel situation, this would not make sense, imo.

I think they are simply going yo add one or two regions (as there is place on the map) as dlc, and maybe increase the max character level.

Personally, I'd like for more creatures of the fauna and flora variety to be added, as the Living Lands are not living up to their name.

Personally, I would just wish for a decent dungeon. I really lost interest in regions (and I still have on more to go), and even if the DLC one is better (like it was with Elden Ring), I am not sure if I can be won over at this point.

A nice dungeon would be lovely though - those few lengthier story quests with dedicated areas so far have been highlight of the game for me - and I would prefer more of that.

If there is DLC of course.

Maybe I am reading too much into your post but this doesn't sound as much Berath as it does Woedica. Minus the mercy part. Have you ever known Berath to be bothered by murderers or corruption? Raedric, who was devoted enough to Berath to return as a death guard, had a bunch of undead in his basement, and then a bunch of undead at his disposal when he decided to stop being dead.

People who go for immortality does seem to bother Berath OTOH, based on their Teir Evron quest in Pillars 1.
