Regardless of its history, it's a solid game now, and that's all that matters.
Brilliant world building, remarkable characters paired with top tier voice acting, an impossibly detailed environment and satisfying combat. It's easy to grasp all the playstyles this game offers, and they all seem like they'd be extremely enjoyable no matter what type of build you go with.
I'll play Phantom Liberty eventually, but for now, just playing through the base game as of v2.0 was a blast. There was a shit ton of bugs but mainly just vehicle and pedestrian pathing tripping out, or some dude stuck in a wall, nothing too bad.
My biggest gripe is just that the world's ambience needs some additions. It's the same few ads over and over on TV, boring radio stations, and every guitarist just plays that same fucking riff everywhere I go. Also the vehicles feel way too light.
All in all though, I think everyone should play this game at least once.
