For a definitive edition:

1. At least some upper city content.

2. I do want a cure for spawn Astarion. Guy got tortured and abused for nearly 200 years, who cares what happened before, he's paid for it by now whatever it was. I can't see it affects the choice to ascend him or not. One way you get a normal no special powers high elf, the other you get a powerful ascended immortal vampire lord, one way you just live out your lives together if romanced, the other you can choose to be as immortal as he is if romanced - still a massive choice there isn't there? Can't see that devalues the ritual in any way especially given that Astarion's' stated main purpose is revenge and to kill Cazador to remove him as a threat, with whatever else happens in the process being a secondary consideration.

3. If you can't do that at the least remove that appaling dock scene with spawn Astarion running away while his team mates make sarcastic remarks and the narrator drones on completely unconcerned.

4. In the same vein as with Astarion I do want to get a cure for Karlachs heart. I'm not even a massive Karlach fan but even I don't want that 'dying on the docks' scene to even raise its head ever again.

5. The 'we need an Illithid' at the end needs to be looked at. It makes little to no sense as it stands.
Why do we need an Illithid if we plan to use Gales Orb?
Why can't we use Omeluum?
Why do we need an Illithid in the first place? The reason given makes no sense, we've been running rings round the thing since the start of the game, it wasn't omniscient even before we killed the dead 3's chosen.
Why does the Emperor immediately do a 180 if we want to free Orpheus? Both of them are pragmatists and Orpheus will even go Illithid himself if necessary - the reason for the Emperor throwing his toys out of the pram make no sense. We should be able to release the mind control - leaving Orpheus still chained - and talk to Orpheus before the Emperor behaves like an idiot. High persuasion check on Orpheus and we're sorted.

6. More of the Underdark, place is gorgeous.

For a DLC?
If the above got dealt with in a definitive edition then I don't need a specific DLC but one would be nice smile
