Seeker, Slayer, Survivor plays like filler DLC. It's below average and lukewarm at best, with very little of what makes an Obsidian RPG in the mix.

I'm glad I played Seeker, Slayer, Survivor. This is an adequate DLC for an already phenomenal game.
Pillar of Eternity II: Deadfire - Seeker, Slayer, Survivor is a DLC that feels as if it doesn't understand the strengths of the main game. Focusing mainly in okay-ish battles, and throwing role-playing out of the window, it's a hard title to recommend.
Even with the "Slayer" path being the best one, "Seeker, Slayer, Survivor" sets out what it meant to do: bring deeper tactics into Pillars of Eternity II. Another great DLC for what might be one of the best RPGs in 2018.
Seeker, Slayer, Survivor brings challenging fights to the Deadfire Archipelago.
