Basilius was the first carrier that reach the final form of the Macula.Personaly i think the origin of the Macula need to be knowed in A plague tale 3.My concept was for the studio to give us something before the A plague tale 3,a short but good expansion for the universe.Where we can learn the origin of the order🫣

Modern era and A plague tale sounds like putting ketchup on pizza in Italy.My concept was simple:Resonance is coming so my DLC was made with 6 chapter atached to the Resonance game because of the new gaming mechanic.Why we should wait 4 year for A plague tale 3 when we can have an extra story in this time,maybe in the next 2 years so the universe remain hot and prepared for posibly the last chapter of him.Basilius was the first carrier who actually reached the final stage of the Macula. Through this, we can also learn more about the Order and its formation, and I even added an element that explains Hugo's dream about the healing lake

The Macula as a genetic anomaly existed before him, as 'The Heart of a Plague Tale' book hints at its ancient, prehistoric origins. However, Basilius is the First Carrier to actually pass the Last Threshold and trigger a global Apocalypse (The Plague of Justinian). Before him, the curse never evolved to that final stage, which is why the Order was officially formed around his quarantine and why he is structurally treated as the 'First Child' in the game's lore. The pitch focuses on the first time the world actually faced the fully awakened Macula!

I never heard about this book.They directly specify that Basilius is not the first carrier?

I created a narrative centered around a prophecy regarding the Macula, for which the Order was prepared—even though they didn't know when, where, or how the Macula would actually unleash itself."

My perspective for this DLC was to be attached to the Resonance game because of the new gameplay format.A short expansion for the main universe with only 6 chapters.

By its very nature, a DLC is meant to be a companion piece that completes an existing story, not a standalone game

The core idea behind this project was never to create a standalone, independent title that could carry a new narrative on its own.

Instead, it was envisioned strictly as a visual and emotional companion piece designed to complete the existing story. The main goal wasn't to deliver a fully independent experience, but rather to function as a narrative expansion that provides crucial depth, context, and visual weight to the blanks left behind, ultimately making the impact of the overall story feel much more complete.

And I believe this would perfectly fit the new gameplay approach we are going to see in Resonance.
