ending spoilers:
CDPR once again managed to not fall into the tired and boring "good/best/bad ending" dichotomy of other, lesser games. The ending other games would call "bad" (where Gaunter O' Dimm fulfills the contract and takes Olgierd's soul) is just fantastic. Yes, in terms of content you do miss out on a cool area, two swords and a little riddle, but it's by far my preferred way to end the story because it fits so well with the tone of the game and this expansion. That's the kind of balance that sets this apart from other ending choices. Just like with the various ending variations in the main game, each one has its advantages and disadvantages.
That's the beauty of the writing for this specifc DLC. Each of the quests shows you a different aspect of Olgierd's life. His relationship with his family and brother, the cruel nature of the Von Everec family's debts to the Borsodi family, and the destruction of his marriage due to forces outside of his control. He turned to Master Mirror, and Mirror robbed him of his humanity.
There's no doubt that Olgierd did awful things, but he was robbed of a chance at redemption by O Dimm's trap. I think you can find that most things were out of Olgierd's control, meaning I wanted him to find redemption outside of O Dimm's curse, but you could simply determine olgierd himself deserved it by ever contacting O Dimm in the first place.
