"However, I'll try to reserve my excitement. Believe it when I see it, etc etc!"
I am 100% with you there. I'm a bit...worried about seeing what Larian spoke on it.
"It’s fiery, poignant, and gives her the ending she deserves."
My worry is that it won't deliver a payoff that melds together with the options we have available to us in game currently. I'm hopeful that they just let us fix her engine after putting in the work for it. Don't make it easy for us to do, but make it so we -can- do that.
Fingers crossed.
*Edit*: Maybe I'm wrong though, as I've seen poignant used to describe emotionally evoking moments, places, times, etc. Not necessarily meaning sad or sorrowful. Hope? Hope.
