Since this sounds like something that was just made by PC Gamer staff with the toolset and a little help from bioware, I don't think it's bad at all.

They should have billed it as that in the first place though to avoid people thinking it was anything more than it is. It's a big failure of their PR department, but it sounds like it could have been a cool idea- helping a gaming magazine create an example of the power of the toolset. Oh well, maybe next time they'll help a couple magazines create quests like this and get the press release right.
