The question is whether Witch Hunt was planned from the very beginning (shoehorning the Dank Ritual as canon) or merely to appease the butthurt fanboys that couldn't get over being dumped by a virtual character (I wonder if the Viconia romance in ToB was also rebooted for the same reason). Instead, there should've been butthurt over the fact that when Morrigan leaves, one's character is frozen in a cutscene, somehow looking on while the vixen slowly walks away with a smug look on her face, without any opportunity to skewer her.
All of my characters are female, and all of them save one did the dark ritual to be able to continue snuggling with Leliana. But beyond that, why should they still give a hoot about Morrigan's shenanigans?
