Almost two months ago during the Fan fest, Yoshi and the Devs clearly let the world know... upfront... that there would be two parts to the 4.5 patch and clearly justified their reasons for proceeding with this direction.

No problem there and most of the player base even cheered to the bloody rooftops.

Fast forward to our present timeline, you have completed part one, reached the obvious cliffhanger... and because you view it as an impasse... you suddenly now have a problem with how the patches have been scheduled into two parts? Sounds awfully like impatience to me.

Your argument would have had much more substance if you had mentioned your dissatisfaction with this schedule and complained back in November.
Why are you so aggressive about a minor complaint about story pacing? It's natural to be caught off guard by such a quick end to the MSQ; it's not a crime or even heavy criticism. SE saying "we're gonna do it in two parts" does not naturally lead one to think "they're going to take one patch's worth of story and axe it off as soon as possible to give the required dungeon then save the rest for later". I thought there would be long segments leading up to and following the instance, but we only got the scenes before. If the flow of the narrative had gracefully paused instead of cutting off, I would not have felt much dissonance. As it is, I got out of the dungeon ready to see more talking heads and debates but instead got a quick chat and "To Be Continued". It's not a deal-breaker but it's very obvious they cut it off so they could parcel it out later. Which again, fine, I have plenty of other things to do in the meantime. It left me feeling a bit confused and unsatisfied, but I will be back to finish it when the March patch drops.
