Companies are not your friends, there's nothing to "forgive". Companies are motivated by profit, not goodwill.

That said, I think the initial reception was a bit blown out of proportion and anyone who avoids playing this out of spite is an idiot and missing out because it's a great game ( and has been, since the first paches rolled out in 2020 ).

I played the game through after the Phantom Liberty expansion and I had the most fun I have had with a game in a long time. I played through three times with different endings, the amount of ending variation was truly incredible. Great RPG, great storytelling, and great gameplay. I would highly recommend it to anyone who likes ARPG.
