What happens with Magneto?

If anything, Magneto is the perfect reason why the world should fear all the mutants and have a backup plan in case one of them decides to change the order of things. If in First Class he’s at the beginning of his path as a villain, with few knowing that he’s actually close to killing so many American and Russian soldiers (potentially uniting the two super powers against the mutants), Days of Future Past makes the entire world aware of his intentions.

And that is why his return in X-Men: Apocalypse seems a bit odd to me. Yes, he went into hiding. However, he’s been seconds away from killing the President of the United States, and everybody knows his face, so it’s difficult for me to think that he could actually lead a normal life.

Furthermore, X-Men: Apocalypse sees Magneto yet again at the center of all the destruction, doing all the heavy lifting. And to say in the end that he’s forgiven just because he had a sudden (and poorly played) change of heart…

Okay, nobody says that he is forgiven. However, this is what’s implied when he’s allowed to rebuild together with the X-Men, as well as when he’s able to walk away freely. So what happens with Magneto and how does the world see him now?

It’s an odd choice to make, having this happy and ambiguous ending. Or, at least, this is how I see it.
