An apology wouldn't cut it in my book. Clearly Saber Interactive is thrilled the narrative designer is happy with it. Still, a game claiming no AI, and then changing their claims to include plenty of AI is going to lead to continued massive criticism of their game. Serves them right.

So many people in the comments defending the CEO and then he came out and apologized. How many people will re-assess their view on the situation.
