I’m just going to quote another comment I wrote about this for starters
I’m talking about the company. They’re dogshit for releasing it in the state they did and slightly less so for ultimately fixing at least some issues and giving some of the promised features.
If the DLC and 2.0 make it better then it’s for sure a redemption arc
Not even close. Especially with the DLC, how would making paid DLC in any way redeem the company?
I’m not giving them kudos for finally fixing stuff and bringing stuff they should’ve had in the first place. Much less calling bare minimum like that a “redemption arc”.
And it’s VERY clear from the way you’re talking that nothing they do could redeem them in your eyes.
They bungled the false advertising, hype and overall the state the game was in launch so bad that it sure is hard. Then again, all big gaming companies are dogshit like that and I haven’t seen anyone else coming back either. And people keep forgiving them, buying their games and nothing changes. CDPR just had a bigger fall than the rest, coming off the Witcher 3 hype and having created the massive hype for 2077.
It was one bad launch, not a pattern of bad games or anything like that.
It was a massive overhyping and misleading of customers. Then releasing the game in a such a bad state. I just don’t like it when any company does that,

Redemption arc would mean from bad to good. Not dogshit to slightly less dogshit. Maybe if they had given the DLC for free as an apology or something, but just fixing some of the issues years later isn’t a redemption arc.
It’s not a redemption arc to get (years later) fixes to stuff that should’ve worked at launch and game systens that were advertised to be there from the get-go.
Idk if I just hold those companies to higher standard but this doesn’t redeem them in my eyes. This just means they weren’t as dogshit as they could’ve been if they just bailed. But they still lied and released a shit product. That shouldn’t have happened in the first place.
I guess they’re talking about the update since saying how 30€ DLC is their redemption would be too ridiculous even for gaming world. Still, giving some of the shit you promised years after the launch is hardly a “redemption” imo. It should’ve been there from the get-go and giving it now, way late, is least they could do.
How is a paid DLC any sort of redemption for shit that should’ve been in the game from the get-go? If it was free it would easier to understand but it seems like it’s 30€?
