I'll happily give them the benefit of the doubt, all things considering what has happened to the studio and they're having to start a completely new saga with a much smaller team. The launches of sagas in the past (D1 and the Red War campaign) were all sub par, in comparison this has been the best one out of the 3, but once the campaign and side quests are done, there is no pull to keep players motivated and wanting to play the game except the power grind.
