Veilguard was okayed because it's a money maker franchise. All the dragon Age sequels are a cash cow series. No matter how bad they are, they all sold back in the day because everybody's brains went monkey mode and said "OOOOOH, MEDIEVAL FANTASY SETTING!!!"
Recall that Andromeda was what put the Mass Effect franchise on ice. That directly resulted in a team of people comprised of OG trilogy devs and hiring fans of the trilogy.
One side was comprised of people who actively didn't care about quality. FFS, they hid the writers of Veilguard until the day of release and then revealed it was two Kotaku writers. The other side has already revealed many members much before the announcement of them getting out of pre production yesterday.
