After doing some quests morality seems kinda weird and only really there to make certain quests more difficult (Not sneaking past the guards to rescue Cocona, Adam quests and killing the pighead cultists)

So I'd like it if there were some criminal quests that have a higher money payout than normal quests but take away morality

For example instead of doing the quest to deliver white dragon weed to Elsie you instead get a quest from a drug dealer to deliver the dragon weed to him

There could also be smuggling goods in or out of other settlements, debt collecting, pimping, bribing officials with coin or sex, selling people you rescue to slavers, assassination of problematic individuals, breaking people out of prison, drug dealing

This would make morality something to actually pay attention to since (personally) it isn't that hard to get high morality by rescuing hostages and doing the repeatable Noer quests

Also if Lona is already willing to steal, whore, kill slaves (fishtopia quest), rape people to death and eat them I don't see a reason why she wouldn't do some yakuza shit

Not asking for Lona to become some badass mob boss, just the option to be a backstreet thug

At the very least a thug personality or gang tattoo (preferably on the butt or breast) that makes it so morality can't go higher that 35 would give an interesting challenge

Honestly after the game is done I'd be willing to pay 10-15$ for a GTA/Yakuza themed DLC

the last point the dlc point last i checked the game is actually done at least by main quest standards everything being added is extra right now

I meant it as DLC after all the extra content is finished since it isn't high priority

Although if it did become paid DLC it would also come with high expectations besides reskinning some quests

New quest hub area, gangs, NPCs and companions, morality based traits, personality types, weapons and spells ect.

In the end I would just like to role play a criminal since it's kinda jarring to be a cannibal rapist who uses the "kill squatters in the sewers" quest as a resupply run, but still somehow have good morality

A good departure from conventional quests and, at the same time, a subversion to the common plot, interesting, I like your way of thinking, but the quests in question must have a good catalyst that initiates this deviation of conduct towards an alternative ending to this quest. It would be good if was affected by survival points, opening up the opportunity to earn more and think for yourself instead of following guild rules.

A good introduction to a criminal quest I was thinking is simply have some shady NPCs that hang around areas like the slums, docks, a dark corner in the bar, the Noer market or arena at night

Can be as simple as "Hey you wanna make money fast? Just sell me some (white dragon) weed." And from there it escalates in collecting loans from gamblers to then collecting money from whores not paying their pimp then eventually selling people into slavery and helping plan a mass prison break.

I'd be happy with a simple reskin of existing quests with alternate rewards or as previously mentioned a personality type or a gang brand/tattoo that caps morality to be no higher that 35 for the challenge
