I hope no. The game is playable but not perfect.

I just waited for such a question to come up.
The game feels as it is still an alpha built and you ask for a dlc.
Maybe you buy it twice or a dozen times instead of asking how to throw away your money.
If more people ask for it, they will get it. Looks like many people buy games but instead of playing asking for a dlc..

But hey, maybe you are just asking... while not being able to play at all..
Then you could have a look in a Thread that originates from last year when the game was not even out but some people were already thinkjng about the next dlc.. awesome idea, really! (NOT!).
I would say: make a game that does Everything at least as good as dw1. Yoh have one year from now.
Then you need more money, but not all bugs are taken care of.. take our money again.. come up with "DW2 pirateer" or suh a like.

But here, see for yourself ..

If there aren't minor DLC releases for new factions and races every 4-6 months, after the game is actually finished, I would be shocked. I imagine new storylines will be limited to new races.

Major DLC might be trickier compared to what the original DW had, but I'm sure they'll figure out a way to milk it.

However, I expect it'll be 2023 before this thing is considered done.
