Please rewrite and recast character Sin

Hi all
Sin from POE 1 is one of my favorite video game characters of all time. Poetic, graceful apart from humanity but determined to help it thrive despite being perceived as a devil (another exile called to save his homeland).
The voice of Sin by Andrew Robert is silky and soothing I must have played the POE campaign a dozen times and the moment in the innocence boss fight where he arrives calmly stating "Hear this, Brother! From mind of lead to heart of gold, your soul shall be bound, your wrath shall grow cold." get me every time.

Sin in the POE2 beta is.... none of those things, his voice sounds cheaply distorted, he has no poetic lines or grace (and seems that his ethereal form has put on a few pounds). With the exception of the Act 1 boss he does not arrive to dispense mercy, (I have always found him a good way of reminding you why the boss you killed mattered, massively upped the satisfaction). Also Sin in POE 1 was never shy about calling himself a god, and does so in your second or third conversation with him in act 5. Why should he wait to tell you until the end of act 2 in the beta?

In short I think a rewrite and recast of sin is in order if Andrew Robert is available please bring him back, add more moments where sin interacts with you and please lets get our poetic prophet back.

Many thanks

I get where you’re coming from. He sounds weary, and tired.
But thinking more on it, it makes sense why that is.

In the 1st game, he helped us take down kitava and the other rampaging gods. You’d think that’d end with him being revered, but nope. From the opening trailer we find him actively pursued, persecuted even.
Raising a 2nd beast can’t be easy.
sinning is bad, m'kay?
